Descartes · Posted: Fri Sep 14, 2007 12:58 am Post subject: some openers i came up with

first opener, for when you see a girl eyeing you or smiling at you, or walking by and doing this

be like

me: do i know you?/ who are you?
girl: no/why?
me: because you were staring/ smiling at me, are you a stalker? (stalker line optional)
girl:sorry no (hopefully laughs)
me: its ok, i'll forgive you if you give me your opinion on...............fill in (or if youre at a bar, if you buy me a drink - altho it may be too early to pull that...)

-------------------

ok another one...if youre in LA, ask whats a better city, LA oR NY... or LA or OC, if youre in OC ask the same. if youre in NY ask about london or LA, and you can use this as a a way to DHV yourself and talk about the places youve been to..

you can also talk about stuff in those places (esp if youve been there) which is more DHV and very interesting

-----------------

ask girls opinion on what they think is better, myspace or facebook...

----

if you see an indie rock or punk rock chick --> hey i need an indie rocker/punk girl/ or neither of these/ opinion... WHO do u think would win in a fight... green day or indie guys

girls: totally these guys
me: yeah right green day would rock them!

and continue, maybe transition into music or another opener

---------

same thing but ask frat guys or jocks, if its college girls

ick, when I see pickup transcripts with opinion openers it just makes me feel awkward. A person who can make an opinion opener seem sincere is very skilled. More than 90% of people who use them suck at them. It makes it less artful and so clumsy. Just dont like how everyone uses them.

Opinion openers are great in the right situation - e.g. in a mall searching for clothes! "Do you think this <...> fits to my trousers (or similar)?... Why don't you prefer the <...> stuff like most women do?"

The first opener you've listed might come in handy for me, I fall in to that situation a lot where a girl constantly checks me out, and I just end up not knowing which opener to use, but the first opener kind of busts on them straight away, and if you add a little smirk to it when you say are you stalker? It'll most certainly get a luagh out of it Smile

Well, I think it's natural that opinion openers became mainstreem. THEY WORK!!! But I agree that if you can get by with out them then your much more skilled and will run less risk of happening upon a girl who's heard your opener

I like the first one.

I might turn it into a joke at the end though.
maybe something like: "well that's ok, I forgive you. You're kinda cute. I don't mind having a cute stalker. It's the ugly ones that are really stalkers, cute ones we just call admirerers."
I might go into a story about my friend who called me the other day and told me that he just realized that ugly people have shorter lifespans than pretty people do. He said he got that idea while he was driving in front of the mall and he was checking out this really got girl. She turned around and screamed at him. Apparently he was just about to run over some ugly chick! Twisted Evil

Opinion questions tend to work well in bars/clubs so long as you approach at least a 2set or higher

Opinion openers are overused. Keep away from them - the bar has been raised in C+F, so get to work.

I don't really like the first opener. The stalker part actually seems like the best part about it, but only if you make a good joke of it.

Generally, though, if you already got eye contact and a smile from her, why not open direct? Don't go into an opinion opener though...

using the pre opener if she stares at you i think is gold.
you then have already broken the barrier with sonmething which is generic and streight (not much room to varey responses), and you have the oppotunity of calabrate whether her responses are strong enough to use an opinion opener on her which will improve your chances on her hooking.

im going to try this aswell.....its all about testing....

HotIce · Posted: Wed Aug 20, 2008 8:33 pm Post subject:

the stalker opener had VERY limited uses. Only use it if she's checking you out or if she bumps into you.

Opinion openers are good on 2-sets or 3-sets, because then you can chuck out some negs and do the best friends test. They're less good with lone girls, who usually have lower energy and think you're trying to sell them something.

For lone girls, do a SUBTLE situational opener, such as "what are you drinking" and escalate from there.
