You know that I love telling
you stories of how well using
magic tricks can work on girls
to get them all curious and
excited.
But I even like telling you the
stories of when MAGIC FAILS
to knock the pants of a girl.
(good visual huh?)
…FRIDAY NIGHT I went out with
some buddies and this hot blonde
shows up, she already knows my
friend, Brian
Picture this…we’re at a table
having drinks, a good time in all,
and Brian asks me to show her
the $5 Window trick (you’ve already
seen that video right?)
Normally…this is knock-down-
drag-out-success…
BUT NOT THAT NIGHT
I see this scowl come over her
face. She has NO idea how I did
it…but she’s not impressed at all.
WTF? This usually has girls all
giddy…what’s happening?
******************************
The next words out of her mouth
explain everything:
******************************
“Whatever…that’s not REAL magic.
There’s no such thing as REAL magic.
That’s just a trick.”
I kid you not. Brian and I had our
jaws on the table.
No Sh*t Sherlock! Wow, this one’s
bright…let me tell ya.
Right then and there I knew for certain
what kind of girl she is…and what
kind of girl she ISN’T.
And I let her know it in a very
nice way.
“That’s true” I said, “If I were really
magic I’d be able to make your cynical
attitude disappear.” (I said this with
a smile.
then added “I would be willing to bet that
you NEVER colored outside the lines as
a little girl in 2nd grade did you?”
Now I had her attention. She said…”What
why would you say that?”
“Because you don’t have that sense of
wonder, creativity and adventure about
you.” (Cold reading BS here…I’m daring
her to challenge me on this and kind of
negging her too).
“Seriously I added, I’ll bet you’ve never
been to a circus, are afraid of clowns
…and probably burned ants as a child.”
Remember, I’m saying this in a fun joking
way. I’m not being mean, just not taking
her crap and making her defend herself
to me.
Did she slap me? Get up and walk away
in a huff? Call me an A-hole?
Nope…she burst out laughing and said
“Oh my god…I DID burn ants.” Put
her hands over her mouth and said
“I’m so bad…How the hell did you
know THAT?!”
“I’m magic”

P.S. I’m not going to leave you without
the moral of the story here. Thing is
even when using simple, fun magic tricks
does NOT work like you want it to…it
can give you a perfect way to turn the
tables on a girl.
I use it as test to see what kind of girl
she is. I’ve honestly never went on a
second date with a girl who didn’t enjoy
a few fun tricks…because it says
sooooo much about her attitude and lack
of wonder in her life.
P.P.S. What happened later? She was
sitting next to me, leaning in and it
was like she was trying to make up for
her attitude.
Could I havey closed the deal there?
Who knows. But instead I told her my
girlfriend Kenia was waiting for me
and I had to get going.
