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.

Get comfortable giving all women the cheek kiss as you are leaving (or perhaps as you are arriving).

If she turns the cheek more so you kiss her ear, bad sign. If she turns the cheek less so you kiss her lips (or the side or her mouth), good sign. You may also feel an explosion of chemistry (great sign).

The cheek-kiss can be super-smooth in the right situation, like when you've only spoken to her for a few minutes but she has to leave.
