After a year in the game, i have made much progress in my transition from AFC to PUA. Even though I am not there yet, I have learned one thing. Different things work for different people at different times on different girls.. SO there is no right or wrong.. its all about the inner game..

with that said, I tend to go for either situational or direct openers because its just more congruent to my personality...

So, here is the opener that worked best for me when opening the set.

Here it goes:
"Hey, guys, you look lke your having a fun time, so i decided to come talk with you for a minute or two before i go finding my friends.." (even if they look like they're not having a fun time you can say it, always start with positivity!)
How u position yourself is crucial. You don't want to be facing the set like your selling them something. INstead, just chill and relax. lean back, lean on something do whatever, your there to enjoy their company without expecting anything of it.. they'll be able to sense it...

After this is the hardest part of the opener. Most guys tend to run into a wall and just start interviewing.. "whats your name," "where your from" .. THATS A NO NO!!.. not because they're bad questions, only becuase every guy that will approach them that night is going to ask the same thing...

instead just have fun.. ask a fun question and be random..
Best question is "so how do all of you know each other." This is the greatest because it leads to a fun convo. For example, if they all work together, you can ask so "who's the biggest slacker" they'll usually point at whoever and laugh...

if they're sisters, you can be like, "you guys are playing me, theres no way your sisters"and watch them try to prove it..

if they know each toher from school you can be like "so who's more popular." or who gets better grades. ......

The moral of this post is, avoid the "whats your name," where you from question, and just ask how everyone knows each other because girls tend to like that question. It will lead to a fun convo....
