Okay so there ins't really a "pick up tips" section on these forums, only dating, kissing and sex related subforums unless I'm missing something but here goes with my question. So This new quarter at school I've noticed a whole lot more new gals walking around and today I was in the lounge where only the geeks and freaks usually frequent too and up walks in a nice gal who sits down all by herself and seems lonely, obviously a new student. I thought it was the perfect opportunity and I made the initial move to sit in the empty seat next to her. I had sooo much time to start up a conversation with her but I just didn't go for it.
I was going to turn around and start it off pretty cheesy by asking whether it was her first quarter and ask for her name and I tell her mine. Then I probably would have asked what major she was and such but honestly after that, I'd probably be in a blank in what to do next. I think that was what turned me down from attempting to conversate with her. I let her sit there 2 feet from me for at least 5 minutes while she stared around the room completely bored and I let the opportunity slip me by.
Looking for (serious) advice only for next time. What should I say and how should I say things in such a situation so I'm not left with that feeling of "ahah that was a shitty move that has now left me in my own dead end conversation"? Is there a certain gameplan for given situations? Maybe my biggest drawback wasn't saying anything at all? I know it sounds like common sense stuff with some of you guys but too me I feel like I need that coach in my ring corner helping me.
And should I honestly invest in some of those DVD's lovedoctors sell. I got a few actually from a friend for my birthday but its a dissapointment. basically 3 hours of some guy gapping away at how successful he's been and hardly a sliver of knowledge on how to actually do it.
Suggestion of book or links for advice would be appreciated aswell if your too worried about giving away your prescious "game plans" or something.
