| The best advice I can give you is don't over think it. The worst mistake you can make is to sit back and run through possible conversations in your mind... you run the risk of somebody else beating you to the punch, and you also risk getting flustered if you've thought through something and then her response is something different than you expected.
As far as what to say first, there's nothing that's absolutely right (although there are a whole lot of possibilities that are absolutely wrong...). I always vary mine based on a quick appraisal (manner of dress, the way they carry themselves, where their attention focuses, whether they look at the ground or straight ahead, etc) and location (bar, sidewalk, bookstore, funeral...) and come up with something that's tailored to them and the situation. If all of that is overwhelming, you can fall back on something about yourself, but that's a dangerous way to go... you have to make sure that it's something innocuous and simple that isn't completely out of place.
In the end, there's nothing for it but to get out there and do it. Meet people, hone your conversation skills, and find out what does and doesn't work... even with the same girl and situation, you and I would likely do better with different openings simply because we're different people. |
