So first of all, your mental attitude needs to shift. You're not there "to get chicks," you're there to have a fun time, be social, meet some people, dance around, and if some women get caught up in your whirlwind of amusement and awesomeness, then all the better!
Secondly, your actual execution of the situation needs to shift. The two guys standing at the bar, talking nervously, looking around, meeting the girls eye, then looking away, then after a few minutes summoning up the courage to walk over there and deliver some opener, even if the opener is GREAT, are some of the lowest value guys in there, apart from the ones by themselves not talking to anyone, and the ones picking up the empty bottles off the floor.
Before you get to the club,
warm up at a nearby bar/pub, and during the day beforehand. Just get into a social mindset - talk to anyone, not just hot women. Have a joke with the guy serving you a sandwich, with the girl serving you drinks, etc. When you're in the club, you already want to be in a social mood. Shake hands with the bouncer on your way in and be polite, joke around with the girl in the cloakroom, etc etc. T
hen open EVERY SET as you walk in, based solely on proximity to you, casually, over the shoulder. IT can just be to ask where the bar is, or anything like that. If you can't continue past that, just thank them for being friendly, shake hands and wish them a great night. You can re-engage later if you want.
What is the point of this? Once you've done this 5-10 times, there will be a significant number of people who are
now noticing you. Firstly, there area those you can now look around the venue and actually make eye contact, smile and and wave to, because you shared that 1 minute interaction earlier and they recognise you. To other people around, they will assume you know each other. To women especially, you appear to be someone who knows a lot of people, and who a lot of people are noticing. Why? What's so special about you? She's intrigued. You can now afford to go directly up to a set of HBs you're actually interested in, with your value raised, and you're no longer the creepy guy in the corner who "wants something," you're the social, fun guy everyone knows, and you're interested in getting to know her too
The final step in the process is to go out to clubs with
1 wing at most, and as many female friends as you can bring. However social and awesome you are, your highest value position from which to look around, force IOIs and then go open sets, is when you are already in an interaction with at least one hot girl.
Wen't into a club with this mentality/strategy. Met some cool people, talked to everyone, everyone was noticing us. At the end of the night the people in the corner of the club were calling out my name!!
Seriously mate. Follow blondguy's strategy and you will have a great night. You might not go home with a HB10, but you will wake up the next morning feeling like a God!
