I was wondering if anyone has tried this cold approach or something similar and could tell if it’s good or not or what I should be aware of while doing it.
The setting is on a college campus, anywhere really, especially the main areas with lots of people outside by the pretty spring-time trees. The girl wouldn’t be doing anything she couldn’t stop focusing on. She might be walking, seemingly waiting, reading a book, maybe even doing something recreational with a group of people, like hitting a soccer ball around.
I would approach her, slow down as I get near, try and get eye contact and then smile, though I might get neither, regardless, I say “excuse me” she stops what’s she doing and gives me her attention, I face her non-threateningly, we converse something like this:
Girl: ya
Me: Hey what’s up, (slight pause) I was wondering if I could talk to you for a little while
Girl: sure I guess
Me: So I’m in a good mood and I was looking to meet some new people (pause for her) do you think you’d be interested?
Girl: ya why not (we both smile)
Me: (ask her questions, tell her a little about myself)
Girl: (probably wants to know what made me approach her just like that, probably a bit surprised)
After we talk for a bit and if I think I want to see her again I ask “Do you want to get together sometime maybe for lunch” (pause, suggest some other things I’d think she’d be interested in hoping she bites on one.)
Girl: yes let’s do that
Me: okay why don’t you give me your number and we can set something up (bring out cell phone)
Girl: okay
Me: when’s a good time to call?
Girl: (answers question)
And it’s a done deal
So What do you think? I’m going to start implementing this tomorrow and I’ll let everyone know how it goes.
