Sample situation: 3 women of which 2 are talking and the third seems not to be doing anything. Basically works in any situation in which the women is not actively talking to someone.

I use this line (which I have loosely translated from Dutch) all the time and it never fails.

"Are you being bored? Look at this place that is ridiculous."

Don't be serious but make sure it's apparent that you are joking. Most of the time it opens them right up but sometimes I get a bitch-shield or otherwise unhelpful response after which I pretty much repeat what I said before in a bit more detail.

"I just thought you looked bored when there are all these people around which seemed kind of strange."

After this I always get a good response which I use for moving the conversation forward. As with any opener this only works when done with confidence and a strong frame. It is situational and if you try to be truly surprised by the fact that she seems bored, she will buy into it.

This one has worked so well that I catch myself almost waiting for a women to be 'not busy' for a moment so I can jump in.

Nice im going to steal those now....

I made that pretty easy for you didn't I? Almost as if I wanted to share this information

Best. Opener. Ever.

How many times have you tried this? And where? Because I have done smething very similar with very lil success

I have used it around 15 times or so. Always in a club or bar type environment in the Netherlands.

I think it's all in the delivery. Here's a more complete breakdown of what I do, maybe it will help.

First thing I have done is ensure my default posture is great by standing up straight, shoulders back etc. I have practiced my body posture every day by standing with my back against a wall while putting my shoulders back then moving away from the wall and keeping the posture. After 6 weeks of doing this my posture is now good by default without thinking about it.

Now on with the approach. When I spot the target I walk over confidently but relaxed. I don't do a surprise attack but if at all possible I make sure I can look into her eyes before opening my mouth. I never approach from the back. Always from the front or the side.

When I open her I make sure that I talk over my shoulder and am not facing her with my body. This is less intimidating (I am larger than her) and less needy. Once she turns her body to me (which they have done every time so far), my body also turns to her.

I also smile while saying my opening line and act sincere albeit a bit joking when I ask her if she is bored.

Of course the target doesn't respond favorably some times but I keep my frame. My mindset is that "I'm just asking a question and expect her to be nice and want to start a conversation". I DO NOT flinch or let her negative response influence me and after one of two more lines she will come around. I expect her to come around which is key. You're expectations shape your behavior in a big way.

She will notice that I'm not a "freak pervert anti social douche" and than we're off to the races!
