 shaping in pickup | |
I have been looking at Vin's overall model of pickup, reading the attraction code, etc., and as I was out in the field the other day, I realized that I don't quite get the concept of "shaping" as it applies to new girls you just met. I have actually done quite a bit of shaping in my relationships, mostly unconsciously, but in pickup (meeting and pulling new girls) -- that's quite a different story.
I was wondering if anyone else has gone through this. I usually open with no trouble without using any "community openers", just asking situational funny questions or after a strong eye contact. But I can't "go straight into shaping" after opeining, as Vin has said. Is shaping a subset of qualification (or the other way around)?
Can you guys post an example of an actual pickup conversation where you go from an opener into shaping?... Any other dicussion of the subject is welcome too... |
