Must be one of our operatives!

I saw a very impressive cold approach on the train this morning. It was the first CA i saw in public that was not done by one of my friends.

I board inbound train heading into the city and see and hear this happen right next to me.

Across from where I was stood a nerdy girl, HB5 at most.
I see a guy enter the train and immediately make a comment about the books the girl was carrying. She was a law student and so was he. Initially i was under impression they've met before, but questions that followed stated the opposite. After establishing common ground where he and she were studying he began talking about craziness of moving and where they were from (this guy was from Long Island, NY and the girl was from a local town). He smoothly made an exit one station later. Note that neither of them exchanged names or contact information.

Topics of the conversation were pretty simple but the whole fluidity of this approach really impressed me. The vibe between then was very friendly.

After he left I asked her whether she met him before, she said No.

Witnessing these approaches is second best to actually approaching. Very inspirational!

Thats why we should have a...video section or something here at sosuave so we can actually SEE seom approaches ourselves. Much more inspirational and useful

But what was the point if he didn't get the digits?



I think he was just being friendly.

Also, that was a good opportunity for you to get her numbers, even if she was a five. Great practice.

That's what every DJ, or wannabe, should do imo. Keep your convo skills maximum because you never know when u really need them. Good opportunity well used I would say. I often talk to strangers, young and old, beautiful and not so beautiful, just for the fun of it, and so did he.
