I've been using this since I started pu and it has always helped me build comfort and a connection with my target. Now sometimes it's a huge hit, and other times it just produces a small smile or "how cute" but it NEVER hurts.
I keep a small photo in my wallet at all times of my 2 little brothers when they were like 3 & 4. They're expressions are priceless, one has drool all over his shirt and a pacifier, the other has huge golden locks of hair and looks kinda like a girl. there is so much to talk about in the photo.
During comfort the topic of siblings or family will most likely come up, and if not it's easy to bring up. Then when she starts talking about how close she is with her family, etc. I start:
Renaissance: "That's so awesome that you're close with (whoever), it's the same way with me and my brothers, I would do anything for those kids."
HB: "How old are they?"
R: "Oh they're 19 & 20 now and are off away at college, it sucks I really miss them. Here's a pic from our glory days growing up" (produce photo and watch her 'awwwwwwwwww' and then chat about the photo)
Then, I always tell a DHV story spiked with some of the following attractions:
- Protector
- Leader of Men
- Importance of Family
- Vulnerability *(optional)
Enjoy!
