I am trying to develop my self the ultimate " bag" of "Ive got a question" or "I need you;re opinion" type openers.
I know that they can be lame sometime and too indirect but I find when there is nothing else I would like to have something
I would love to hear anybody idea's or routines and how they went?
My goal here is too have so many in my head that I'll have one for any type of situation, place, set etc.
Im in college so these might work for gaming when going down the halls
Appreciate it a bunch guy!!
lol don't stick too many in your head. Look through the openers on the forum and find a few you like. try them. see how they work for your style of pick-up. if they work... keep using them. master them. and try some new ones if you would like... Don't think too much about your opener as most people are going to forget it anyways. You really want to make sure your body language and tonality match what it is you are really saying. Don't act in a threatening manner. Keep your shoulders back and your feet forward when standing. Opening a moving target can be difficult. I would say if you are going to be practicing day game to learn, post yourself in an inconspicuous spot on the wall, and STAY AGAINST THE WALL (don't chase girls down) and open them from there. Start talking once you realize she can hear you. BE INTERESTING ENOUGH FOR HER TO STOP. and away you go... WHAT you say as your opener doesn't really matter... It's what is overall being presented.

As far as what you actually say...
So you can understand the meaning behind using a good opener... Go out somewhere that is FARRR away from your house, bar or club, where ever there is alot of people. Your only purpose of going here is to realize what a BAD opener does. Use a ridiculous opener (don't say something to get your ass kicked but be pretty extreme) and understand how that way of opening triggers negative emotions in people. The easiest way to understand pick up is to start paying attention to what you are doing to peoples emotions and learning to gauge their over all comfort levels with you. Start being consciously aware of what message you are sending across, if you feel negative emotions and rejection, fix your "playing style" to adjust accordingly. Don't over think it bro.
