I'd play off the adult things comment.

Could say something like "If work and adult things are separate, I think we have very different ideas of adult things".

Want to find a way to seed the idea of a meet up

Ah I wouldn't use it as my main pic. I'm sure you have pics where you look way more attractive. I think it's definitely a good one for later in the profile though.

It could also be a profile thing. If you're profile is bad/not attractive enough, then you're going to have issues with messaging and getting dates.

Foreigner, probably pushed too hard for the number, without really having a good reason. Need to build more investment and get her to agree to some sort of date.

Brunette, you're putting this girl massively on a pedestal man. Saying that there's guys having a competition who gets to meet her? Why should you be that guy? Your goal here should be to get here interested in YOU, not build her up about all the other guys she could be getting. Maybe translation is off, but the whole thing about this convo is bad from the opener.

Vanessa, same as Brunette but to a lesser scale. You're not using this opener to tell her how great she is, you use it to sexualise a bit and tell HER why she meets YOUR standards.

What these conversations basically say to the girl is the following: 'this guy is really desperate and is trying to make me feel good to sleep with me'. Really unattractive frame.

yeah agree with this. Her "yeah that would be good" is a soft commitment, jumping too hard on to that is gonna push her away. Probably would have been better to say something like "Shoot me your # and we can set something up"

Dude you need $0. This isn't the 19th Century, women have their own jobs and don't need your money

IMO you should be asking her something which she's actually interested in, and people really like talking about themselves. Even though she mentions Harry Potter in her bio, I don't think that means its important to her. You're much better off going for something more general like "Are you from x originally?"

With the "Im curious" text, I think punctuation is pretty important here. If you write "I'm curious?", imo it will get a much better response because the girl knows you're curious in something about her, not just making a statement about being a curious person. I personally think it would be better to write "I'm curious, ... (insert whatever you're curious about)"

Personally think the "And the best texter award..." is a bit out of context here, you really didn't give her much to respond to, and it's a little early to be calling her out on it.

This is why I asked for averages. I don't care about how many numbers any given girl that I speak to is giving out.

I'm sure there's people on here who have enough experience or have been through a woman's profile to see how the interactions go.

At the end of the day, we're all 'selling ourselves' on the sexual marketplace, and if you're not taking the time to understand who your 'target customer' is, you're undoubtedly leaving 'sales' on the table.

IMO it changes a heap. If a girl is giving out her # to any guy she exchanges more than 2 messages on the app with, then her 'intent' behind each guy is very low.

When that's the case, you still need to build a lot of interest/stand out.

If you're the only guy she gives a number to per week, then she's already very invested in making things work with you, and it's simply your job not to fuck it up.

Solid text game is relative to how much 'intent' a woman has shown to you. If she's outright said she will have sex with you on this date, at this place, then you don't need text game. Your text game should be tailored to where you are in the interaction, IMO, and hence the importance of knowing where you are on this scale.
