What are the key components or parts that an opener should display, include and portray in your opinion? I want to start making some of my own openers but am not sure what the most important parts are to include as to get the best response. Thanks!

Obviously you want your opener to be interesting and not any kind of creepy topics or anything like that. You want them to be something from your life to be congruent with who you are. I also encourage embedding DHV spikes in openers. Here is an example of something I may use.

I do a lot of online game, and have friends that do so an opener I created is..."Let me get your opinion on something....I can only stay for a second because I'm here with friends...would you date anybody you met on myspace? Get this, my past girlfriend xxxx met this guy on Myspace and they starting talking a bit, and now he wants to date her. She asked me what she should do. what do you think?"

YES - What if something crazy happens to her...maybe she gets abducted by aliens or joins the circus it'd be all my fault. LOL

NO - Where is your sense of adventure at?

See how I embedded the pre-selection spike with my past girlfriend. Also, I've planned a response to both possible answers. I know what I'm going to say regardless of what she says.

So questions/opinions, with added DHV or time constraint to show superiority and desirability. Anything else? Ofcourse the presentation and tone are important too; confidence, power and enigma. What else?

IOD, neg, false time constraint, dhv, a relative reason of why you are talking to her and kino in the first 15 seconds. 3 second rule.

Fun? Yes. A good opener... No.

You would need very good inner game to pull this off and run direct game. Basically it breaks most rules of an indirect opener, it shows interest immediately, it sounds like a pick-up line, it is cheesy, it does not engage her in conversation and it is not interesting.

Still, try it and let us know if it works.
