Every opportunity that arises.
From the rest of your post, you are defining an opportunity as any "attractive" (i.e. one where there is an emotional stake involved on some level) woman that is in the vicinity. Therefore, if you are at home, no opportunity. If you are at the Gym and there is no-one next to you, or you choose an equipment by yourself, then not in vicinity and no opportunity. You don't have to proactively place yourself in the vicinity of any woman.

No. You don’t “approach”. You just acknowledge them when they are in your vicinity. In a line. Sitting next to you. Whatever. Everyday situations. If you have to “approach” to talk to an attractive women, you’ve been hiding from them in plain sight.
Well that's easy because its very rare for any woman to be in my vicinity. So theoretically, if a woman is in my vicinity once a month or other month, then there is only an opportunity once every other month. Honestly, I rarely see an attractive woman that is around, and if they are, they are plugged into their smartphone and texting away or with someone else. Guess that puts me off the hook then?

No. The point is to realize just how rare it is for an attractive women to crush a man just for being sociable.
Or how rare it is to meet an attractive women in your vicinity in the first place.

No. Why would you? There’s no sexual agenda here, remember?
But if the interaction goes too well, then you'll feel you missed out on a sexual opportunity if your limit your goals to just having a fun interaction without any prospect of follow-up. That feels worst to me then doing nothing at all in the first place, at least there is no sense of loss.

You’re trying to figure this out like it’s a riddle, a tactic, a textbook procedure... Don’t overthink it.
I might be wired that way and can't help it. You have four personality types. Suppose it is native that I'm an analytic personality type? It's not that I'm trying to figure anything out, it's is how I'm wired.

It’s just a feeling. It’s about establishing comfort with basic communication before anything else.
Do you really think any man with these kinds of social anxieties can simply melt away the fear and win the day to get the cheerleader just because he has a magical pickup line?
I'm not looking to win the cheerleader or have unreasonable expectations. You think you are talking to bigdave17?

You don’t need lines and methods. No one does.
You need comfort first, as a foundation, above everything else. Only once you have that can you truly proceed and progress with communication that can parlay sexual connotations, which will lead to getting the number, the date, etc.
So how do you get women in your vicinity, more frequently than once in a blue moon, so you can build comfort? Lets assume you are not looking that hot that women are flocking to be in your vicinity, then what?

Of course, I now have to explicitly say this alone isn’t enough for men with many issues. This is just one process for one problem. But it is a major fundamental and necessary to tackle.
Well, I think you have an answer. If there are plenty of women in your vicinity, and you feel comfortable talking to women in your vicinity then eventually you will reach a level where closing is a natural extension that flows from basic communication. The catch-22 though is there has to be women in your vicinity for that to work. Is that realistic in a digital age where everyone is plugged into a smartphone and swiping Tinder though?
