Ok, I'm going to explain the pickup (example below) that I'm going to try to make happen, then I'm going to need some advice from you all to make sure this works.
About 5 years ago, I had this college class with this great looking girl in it (smart also). I never talked to her except for some small talk when we were put into groups for discussion. After the class ended I didn't think about her, but I would see her about once every year just by chance and neither of us said anything as we passed by each other. Yesterday something triggered a memory in my brain and I thought about her for like 10 minutes. I thought to myself if I wasn't an AFC back then, she probably would have been one of my girlfreinds.
And then today I saw her working behind the counter in some retail store that I visit a few times a year. She didn't see me, but as I left I thought to myself that she could be my wife some day. I mean she's pretty, smart, defintely LTR material.
Now it's rare for me to remember her since I don't remember anything else from that class. Also, I look different than I did then so even if she did remember me, she might not recognize me. So here's a sample pickup:
Me: Do I know you from somewhere?
Her: No, here's your change. Bye.
Here's one I tried on a different girl:
Me: Hey, didn't you used to go to S- College?
Her: Yes.
Me: I think we had a class together. History. With Professor X.
Her: That was a long time ago. (2 years actually)
Me: Yeah, I guess...
-Here she made me seem weird about recalling something that happened 2 years ago. next.
Here's what I got for the one I'm after now:
Me: You look very familiar (looking her in the eyes and smiling). I swear I know you from somewhere.
Her: I don't kn...(she's gonna be caught off guard and not know what to say most likely).
Me: Did you used to go to S- College?
Her: Yeah, I went there a few years ago.
Me: I knew you looked familiar. I think we had a class together. My name's DCN by the way (extending my hand to shake hers).
Her: My name's HB10. What class? (Notice I'm not gonna say it unless she asks).
Me: I think it was an X class.
Her: Oh....(probably still not remembering me)
Me: Hey, let me ask you a question. Are you single right now?
Her: Yes/No
Me: Let me get your number. (or excange #'s) We should hang out sometime.
Her: (gives number)
Me: Alright, HB10 I got places to be. I'll see ya later.
People in the long line behind me: (no way am i apologizing to them for being a man).
Ok, anyone have any advice on how to play this better if there is such a way? One weak point in it is that not much rapport can be built in such a short time frame. Like I have a few things that I can comment on from the class that can show my interest in her. Or should I stick to what's immediate- her work environment- and comment on how she holds her self well, or complement her on getting a job there since they only hire bright people, or ask a question of her that shows I want to get to know her more (women love that stuff). Thanks.
