TDOT thats not a good approach for one reason... its too strong a compliment to flow canned. You ask her "is it true" which is a SET UP to a compliment... like you had the compliment on youre mind before you even saw her... that is BAD NEWS.
ALWAYS go with the flow, these are three cold approaches from girls walking at me in the last 4 months that come to mind:
1) I am at the mall with a friend of mine and a cute girl is walking at us. I start yelling and laughing with my friend about something we saw earlier in the food court:
Tony - Wow, Mike, that made my day, oh my god
<cute girl hears my loud voice from about 20 yards away and make eyecontact, I smile at her she smiles back>
T - Hi!
Girl - Hey! <10 yards away>
T - You wouldnt happen to be coming from the food court, would you? <I STOP walking while shes 2 yards from me>
G - No, why? <she STOPS and answers>
T - Oh gosh, we just came from Teds... some poor guy was on a date with this really pretty girl, right? Well he gets his hot dog with everything on it, but he must be STARVING so he starts eating it as soon as hes ready... well the girl turns to say something to him real quick and bumps the hot dog... poor guy had a relish/musterd stain on his pants this big <hand motion, laughing>
G - Oh no! <laughing>
Mike - You should have seen the dear in headlights look on his face! <we all laugh>
T - Oh, Im sorry, Ive been rude... this is my friend Mike
<They shake hands she says her name>
G - Whats youre name?
T - Im Anthony, its nice to meet you! So what brings you to the mall today?
.
This time, in the mall again, I was alone. I try for eyecontact but dont get any at 20 yards, so at 10 yards I say:
T - Hey!
<At first shes kinda surprised, but then she gives a really friendly "Hi!" but she keeps walking... I stop as she passes me>
T - Wowowow! That was wayyy too friendly of a Hello to just keep walking!
<she stops walking and smiles>
T - Im Anthony, whats youre name?
G - Im <hername>
T - Its nice to meet you
G - So what'd ya get? <points to my bag... ALWAYS be carrying something, its a simple convo starter>
T - A pair of pants from Lord and Taylor... so what store'd you buy out?
.
In a crowded bar:
T - Stop!!! <I stop walking 10 yards infront of her with my hand out, she stops, looks me up and down and doesnt say a word, one eyebrow raised like 'what?'>
T - I just wanted to let you know that you look incredibly scary...
G - Scary?
T - Well, youre really cute, but youre walk, and that chizzled look on youre face is unbelievably intimidating. Ill be honest, youre lucky I left my glasses and sobriety in the car, otherwise Id have probably ran away by now <I smile and take a few steps closer?
G - Im not scary!!! <she smiles and lets out a lil laugh>
T - Oh! A smile! <I whipe my brow, 'phew'> My knees were getting shaky! <she laughs> Im Anthony, whats youre name?
G - <her name>
T - Its nice to meet you. Uh, if youd want to grab a seat and maybe get to know eachother a little, Id really like that
G - Sure! <we sit> So what do you do?
.
Ill admit, I puss out on a TON of driveby approaches. But with some caffeine or alcohol in me I do well. I got #s on all 3 of those approaches, only went on a date with the girl in the middle.
