| everything you wrote up above is retarded, you can open any way you want, its really not as important as the social proof you convey, and the bodylanguage and verbal tonality you project on opening,
what you really want to focus on, is emotional state on your open, and what your goals are,
next it is helpfull to learn to read body language, and notice approach invites,
girls in your peripheral vision that actively seek eye contact with you without you seeking it 1st (they are checking you out looking in your direction etc.), they look at you, you look at them and hold eye contact, they maintain eye contact and smile,
or you look at them and hold eye contact, they look away and touch hair/cross arm over chest and scratch clavical/rub forearm/scratch between thumb and index finger
or you look at them, they look away, when you are getting close they take a 2nd look/ or after they pass you they look back again or do the above (hair touch etc.)
or a girl does hair touch etc. when you are close to her,
or girl randomly opens you,
in all these cases, try a direct opener, you will probably like your results,
all that shit you listed, is unnessicary, if your in state (happy) you should allready be smiling, and you can seriously open with anything you want as long as you exude confidence and social warmth via state, that being said if you smell like shit, and are wearing clothes that scream IM HOMELESS, you probably won't open very consistantly, indirect is probably a nice bet if you didn't get approach invites, but if you just want to get laid direct and playing to the numbers will be the quickest route,
