EDIT: I will be posting all the assignments in this one thread, so scroll down to see your next assignment. Good luck.
ASSIGNMENT #1 – Getting Rid of Approach AnxietyThis week we will focus on simply approaching. You will have to do 36 approaches this week. It does not have to be solid game – you can approach and then immediately eject if you want. All we are trying to do this week is get comfortable approaching, and destroy all hesitation of approach. You will be required to do three different types of approaches: indirect, neutral, and direct. You will do each of these types of openers 12 times.
For indirect opener: I want you to use an opinion opener. An opinion opener is where you ask a girl's opinion on something, and have a story behind why you're asking their opinion on it. Usually, with an opinion opener your opening line is "Hey (guys), I need a -female- opinion on something..." then you immediately into your question. Or omit the "female" part if it is a set of guys and girls, and just say "Hey guys, I need an opinion on something."
I want you to make up your own question and story though. No "who lies more?", "do girls think the rockstar david bowie is hot?", Style's two-part kiss opener, or any other community opinion opener. Come up with a story and some type of opinion you could get from it. You should ACTUALLY CARE about their opinion too, pick something you're honestly curious about. I’m sure you can find one story from your life (or your friend's life) that you could base an opinion opener on. If you want help developing one, post what you got and we’ll give you feedback on it.
For neutral opener: I want you to use a complement opener or a situational opener. A complement opener is where you go up to a woman, and complement them on some article of clothing, accessory, make-up, or whatever. It isn't a complement on her physical beauty though, that is more of a direct opener. A situational opener is where you comment on something in the environment. It helps if the situational comment is funny, but it doesn't have to be.
For direct opener: I want you to use this opener that Desperado described on Badboy’s forum. I would suggest trying out this opener after you have gotten comfortable using the other ones, as you will need to be somewhat “smooth” for this one;
Direct Opener
- turn a girl to face you
- make DEEP EC for a couple of seconds
- a gentle smile...then while looking eye to eye say...
- "I think you look...beautiful...........so beautiful"
(delivered slowly and deliberately using eyebrows and voice to emphasise your words)
- "tell me...what kind of person are you?.......are you friendly?"
- and then starting into deep and wide rapport...
It's slow, deliberate, emotionally intense and very alpha.
99% of chicks are going to experience butterflies in their stomach and a headrush from this kind of opener. They'll smile, giggle...they'll love it.
^---- for the above, if you want to replace the word beautiful with "adorable" or "cute" or whatever, go ahead.
Anyway, if you suck at these openers, WHO CARES? Just get out there, deliver your opener, and go from there. Even if you go out, perform these openers 36 times, and get HORRIBLE reactions, you have still succeeded because you did what you set out to do.
Extra Challenge for Advanced Guys: If you care to take on an extra challenge this week, this is your mission:
Find a venue in which you have never approached before and do some of your 36 approaches there. For example, I have approached in: clubs, outside of clubs, street, coffee shops, schools, restaurants, mall. But I have never approached in: convenience stores (7/11 and such), department stores (like Target), grocery stores, or festivals/carnival etc etc etc.
Another challenge is to find sets that you have never approached before for whatever reason. Some examples include: moving sets, seated sets, standing sets, sets with both guys and girls, mom/daughter sets, dad/daughter sets, boyfriend/girlfriend sets, extra large sets with 7+ people in them, old sets with grandma’s in them (though I wouldn't recommend going direct on the grandma sets - unless you're into that sort of thing.)
