The Classic Finger Routine

By Jason Schultz
Nov 8, 2009
This routine is a fun way to break the ice. Use it to build comfort with the people you are interacting with.

Quickly glance at the fingers of the girl your talking to, and then ask, "I am curious, why did you choose to to wear that ring on that particular finger?"

[She responds].

You respond. "The reason why I am asking is that my friend is really deep into spirituality. She says that the fingers that a person chooses to wear rings on says something about their personality." Then tell her about each finger she has a ring on.

She should not be interested in what you have to say. Take a moment to tell her about each finger that she doesn't have a finger on. Then move on to explaining about the fingers that do have rings on them. Use the fingers that have rings on them to tell her more about who she is.

Here are sample scripts for each of the fingers, feel free to improvise and modify when needed:

THUMB

Stating with the thumb. The thumb represents Poseidon. Poseidon is seen as a god who is extremely independent from the rest of the gods. He does not live on Mount Olympus, but under the sea. Tell her if she has a ring on her thumb she is very independent and like to do things her way.

Another things that you can comment on is the uniqueness of the thumbs position. The thumb sticks out from the rest of the other digits on your finger. Tell her that if she chooses to wear a thumb rings, that she does not like to follow trends and she prefers to set them.

INDEX FINGER

Tell her that the index finger represents Zeus, the god of lightning and thunder.

That's a very dominant finger. It represents power and immense energy. Having a ring there means you tend to be a more dominant person."

End by waving of your index finger at her as if to say "no no no" or "don't do that."

MIDDLE FINGER

"Your middle finger is represented by Dionysus who is the god of wine and partying. He is an incredibly irreverent god.

When a person wears a ring on this finger, it show that that person is usually more care free. Dionysus was the Greek god that believed that life should be lived more care free and less seriously.

If they're wearing a ring on this finger toss up your middle finger and joke, "It's like saying screw you to the world." This almost always get a laugh.

RING FINGER

This finger is named after the Greek god Aphrodite. Aphrodite it the goddess of love. Many people wear a ring on this finger to illustrate that they want or long to be in love one day. This is why most people wear their wedding rings on this finger.

When you fall for someone, you tend to fall for them completely." This is a great spot to deviate from your script and work in some romantic cold-reading.

Conclude with "Interestingly, it is the only finger that has a vein that goes straight to the heart without branching off, so when someone puts a ring on that finger, they're actually making a direct connection with your heart." If she's comfortable, trace a line from her finger up her arm as you say this.

PINKY FINGER

The Greek god Ares is represented by wearing a ring on you pinky finger.

On one hand, your pinky ring is a sign that you have a darker side. However, it also indicates that you're a great protector of things. If somebody messes with someone you love, you won't flee from the conflict, you'll quickly step up to defend them. I bet you can be trusted to keep and protect secrets as well. Maybe that's where the pinky swear comes from."

At the end, you should smile and momentarily lock your pinky with hers.

CONTINGENCIES:

* If she isn't wearing rings and you still want to use this routine, then you can begin by saying "Look at your hands and imagine that you're wearing some rings. Now, tell me which fingers you're imagining them on."

* If during or after the routine the woman asks, "How do you know this?" You may respond, "An ex- girlfriend of mine was into mythology and taught it to me."

* If she wears a ring on her wedding finger then inquire "Is that an engagement ring or do you just wear that to keep the womanizers away?" You'll be surprised how often the latter is true.

Here is quick reference pocket guide for you to memorize and use. Enjoy.

Pinky = Ares representing conflict and protection Index = Zeus representing dominance and power Middle = Dionysus representing irreverence Ring = Aphrodite representing love and romance Thumb = Poseidon representing individuality
