I always kick myself after because I think of funny/witty/flirty ways to respond to guys like…24 hours later. Especially if they say something flirty to me, I just shut it down because I can’t think of how to respond. Example that happened last night: “I saw a girl on an ad the other day that looked exactly like you.” “Nope wasn’t me.” Gosh I couldn’t have thought of something like “You’re the only one who knows my secret” to build rapport?
Any way to be able to generate these flirty replies faster instead of 24 hours later? Practice makes perfect?

Practice makes perfect but more importantly just be yourself and say what comes naturally.
Practice is the most important. A great supplement is anything that helps your brain to function like it should. So that includes, cardio, eating healthy, staying hydrated, etc. Some might resort to taking some certain drugs
A good response to him would be “I saw your mom the other day”
I dont think u can practice this. U have it or u dont. Maybe if you have friends who are good at it u can hang with them and subconsciously pick up stuff otherwise Focus on your strengths.
Nah. I have overcome the challenges of delayed wit. I started working a job With a lot of public interaction and was quite a shrinking violet until I realized that the patter makes money. I tried new things and was workshopping phrases and jokes until I got comfortable saying whatever I pleased. It’s liberating when you get a new audience every few minutes. Now I’m saying funny things that I’m not even trying to. I’ll make jokes or do a bit and I’m basically hearing for the first time just like the people I talk to. The key is practice telling a story well
