Any tip? it look like I'm always having a hard time starting a conversation with a stranger.

I mean outside a club how do you approache someone in a bus, on the street, in a mall, at school?

What I lack is an idea for a conversation, and dont start with this weather stuff.

certified PUA here, there are 3 routes:
1 -> Girl likes to talk, just ask a lot of questions until you find a common interest that you know and talk about it
2 -> Girl doesn't like to talk, talk a lot about yourself and hope she asks questions (and talk about interesting things, no one cares that you got a B in your english lit class and your prof is an asshole, but if you do fencing then that's pretty cool, if not move on to someone more social
3 -> Chloroform + hankerchief, I'd use this as a last resort though

btw, "hey whats up, you're really cute" usually works as long as you don't stumble and stutter through all your words. Provokes a response and you'll find out instantly if she has any interest in your by her response.

fast dates and pick ups are extremely popular at the university library here in Groningen. It seems to me most people say something like: "Hey! I think you look cute/interesting/fun/kind etc. would you care to join me in your study break? (keeping in mind that everyone who comes there has multiple study breaks where everyone drinks coffee and/or smokes. Pick something that you can actually do.)

I think it usually comes down to confidence more than 'routine/line'. Best of luck.

Yes. Confidence and simply not being afraid of getting a rejection is all you need. The rest will come with experience.

True, once u break the "barrier" of being afraid, ull be fine forever.

thing is, over here girls are really cold and when you approach them with those ''you're cute'' the always think you're some kind of douche who's Farking everything with a vagina.

or if it work most of the time they're sluts :S

I find it easier when i go out to approah them cause most of the time it's what they are waiting for.

If you're just being nice to a girl and she thinks you're a douche then she's not worth your time. Plenty of cute and nice girls out there waiting for a decent guy to go up and talk to them.

Thats why College girls are the best :p, ull always have something to talk about

Oh dear. Must be that time of the month again.

Meh.. that doesn't sound like fun.

From a person with 0 experience. Try offering them some gum or something? Close in, chew extensively but not disturbingly and offer them some if they turn their head a little bit. If they happen to be listening to music ask what they're listening. Music is an easy subject, and most people love to talk about their musical preferences, may be all the more fun (spontaneous) when it's from a complete stranger

Look 'em up and down and give them one of these: V

yea but after you drop 'em the next logical step is to pick them up right?

Start smoking, it's a great way to meet people.

hahahah!

Anyways, at on topic. Once, I was at the bus, and the bus took a lot of time on the traffic and there was this girl in front of me, we sent each other looks and everything... but maan, I was thinking way too much "should I stop her while shes leaving the bus and ask for her name at least?" or "should I get closer to her and start a conversation? but then I would look like a stalker "

Well, the thing is, if you always think negatively it would mostly end up being in doing nothing which isn't good. Think into a more positive way, what could you lose by talking?
And I know what you mean, you hate the douches and you just want to be as nice as possible and treat the girl how she deserves it. Good luck finding it, that's the girl who can be really loyal to you.
Build confidence, my brother.

At least I live in Hawaii, is pretty easy to start a conversation because:
1) everyone is nice and so talkative
2) a lot of tourist asking for directions

and a last one suggestion: Avoid the looking-behaving-whoring girls. Approach only IF you wanna get laid.

This is how I was taught.

Drink but failing that i usually start with hi when im drunk think that might work sober too.

Ofc we find a girl to get in her pants. What do you think we're looking for? True love?

I would have actually pegged you for the 'true love' kind of guy, Nuclear.

What's so bad about "true love?" lulz

Don't be socially awkward and start being awesome like me. Actually.

I have a secret technique but it's probably too obscure and not mainstream enough for you to know huehuehuehuehue.
