anyone have some good openers for the day? like right after a class or walking around on a campus?
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I would rather opt to come up with a opener spontaneously on the spot. But you could just say 'Hi how are you doing'.

Informational and Situational Openers have worked best for me in Day Game.

Combine the answers of Nino, f283000, and Pachuco! These are all cool, but to each their own. As we all know, there is no magic pill. Don't look for one OP or you'll f**k yourself over.
Judge nismo is gonna add never talk about mundane sh*t like her job or the weather. Pay attention to something she has on or an item she has and break the ice that way. I personally don't like messing with moving targets, but there are ice breakers. Finding a unique feature on her (not her erect nipples through her shirt) and talk about it with you and her. If it's just her, her value keeps going up. Be sure to kino, build rapport, and chemistry. Flirt too dammit! That's my ruling!
Case closed.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

The other day I'm walking around campus and notice this girl holding a folder on top of her phone. She wasn't my type but I decided to still play with her (hey, always practice!)
Me: [Making a huge deal and giving her a playful grin] "Hey, what the hell are you doing!?"
Her: "What? Oh! I'm trying to see my phone's screen!" [this is outside around Noon]
Me: LOL. I thought you were trying to take a pic of something and wanted to change the lighting!"
Her: LOL.
At this point I would have gone for the Name Test and if passed, I would have number closed. However, like I said, the chick wasn't my type so I didn't want to get her hopes up!

I have this same problem. I always see hot girls walking around campus but I never have anything to chat them up with. For instance today I saw a very hot girl walking and I now regret not trying to talk to her. I guess I feel awkward going strait up to a girl and trying to talk to them. How ever I am going to try to get over this in the next couple of weeks hopefully.

That's the spirit! Remember it's only awkward if you make it awkward.wt_firefighter said:

You can literally say wtf you wan't for day game openers. It's night game that a little tougher because they are being approached a couple of times that night.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
I know a dude who is alarmingly forward. He's from Latin America, so it figures right? Anyway, to me, the dude is creepy forward. Yet he's always chatting with girls in this cafe. Now perhaps he freaks them out and they run away later, but he's an inspiration. Obviously his crazy "friendliness" (LOL yeah right he just happens to be friends to the cutest girls around) works despite the obviousness of it.
Is it fair to think that girls admire that confidence even if it's ridiculous? As in - it matters much more how you say something to them than what you say? Maybe they admire a dude with balls, even if he's ostensibly silly as hell.
