When you pass by and she gives you a smile or any other signal you must open her. My problem is that I usually get caught of guard and I miss that 1 second window to say something and she is already passed me.
In general I have zero problems opening, problem is that I do not react quick in these 1 second situations. Unless I am in pickuo mood, but If I carry along with my day thinking about work and I notice her smile I do not recover fast enough to say at least "hi how you doing"

these things always happen. you just got to learn from your mistakes and not let it happen again.

so when that opportunity comes you cease it.

we all win some and lose some. dont think about it, just learn why you made a mistake and dont do it again.

good luck.

If you pass them or see them smile but missed that first chance, then you still aren't comfortable opening.

If you pass them and see them smile but didn't open and start walking away...GO BACK.

"Hey, sorry, I'm looking for the nearest ________ (ex. SPAM machine). Do you...blah blah."

If she smiled shes gonna tell you where said place is. And if shes really friendly, continue with your open..

"Thanks alot haha. You're my hero/life saviour! I'm _______ BTW...."

I am comfortable in opening, its just the matter of reaction time.
Like when you drive your car and see sothing on the road it takes you up to 1 second (mine is 0.3 seconds) to hit the breaks. It has nothing to do with uncomfortable, its purely delay in eaction time.
The thing is that I think i could somehow improve my reaction time on this :)

If we go towards each other and I did not notice her before (from far away) and I notice her when we are 2 meters away from each other and I see her smile I simply do not have enough time to open my mouth, as its 1 second and she is passed. Imagine you carry on with the day, think about some stuff and you suddenly notice the chick smiling at you you quickly think something like "oh she is smiling, plus she is cute, I will open my mouth quick with an opener" - and while you have all that in your mind she is already passed :D

It has nothing to do with being uncomfortable. If I see her when we are not 2 meters, but lets say 5 meters away then there is enough time to open. NOTHING to do with being comfortable to open.

By the way I do not do that indirect opener as you mentioned when she is clearly interested in me. This is just stupid, why would you open with lame "where is place X" if she is allready attracted to you a lot :D

lol what? If you see a girl give you a definite IOI (like a "smile") and your only problem is you were one second late and you decide: "Oh well, lost my chance, better luck next time" Then that doesn't bring me to believe you are a strong opener. I mean, just get your ass back there and approach even if you just passed them. I mean, if there is DEFINITELY a sign, the chances of a bad delayed response is pretty slim.

I can turn around and say hello no problem. I merely want to improve that I would not have to do the turn around and rather that I would react fast enough to say "hi" before passing her.
I think its pretty simple to understand.

Its not about attention, its about reaction time.
To illustrate, lets say from the moment you see her to the moment you open you mouth it takes 1.2 second. And I want it to take less, for example 0.6 second. Numbers are not real, just to illustrate my point.
