So after watching almost the entire playlist of PWF cold approaches, I built some courage to cold approach 2 women today. Ik this is numbers game but ig some progress is better than no progress š¤·š»āāļø
For context I belong from Mumbai, India a metro city and tons of events happening year round so finally I decided I will not give a damn about what my friends think or what the women I'm approaching feels, I just wanted to do it to get it out of my system and get in the flow state.
1st approach: Her eyes made me walk up to her and compliment her eyes and smile. Don't have much to say what exactly I said because I just complimented and the moment I could talk any further, the fridge (yeah her girlfriend) pulled her aside and took her somewhere else. I didn't feel bad neither I felt good, more like get into the zone. BTW approached her in a public art festival, big crowd but not so much noise that you can't hear what the other person speaks.
2nd approach: Post the art festival, me and my friends hit this pub (very popular in our city), I see this girl across my table wearing the most elegant outfit. She was in group of 3 girls, figured I could maybe utilize the defusing strategy to avoid the same result from my first approach i.e "fridge protecting the snacks", so I walk up to the group and ask
Me: "Excuse me, I have a quick question... you all are friends right?"
Grp: "Yeah"
Me: "And you'd never wish bad about your friends, right?"
Grp: "Yeah"
Me: "Great, because I find your friend over here very beautiful and she is wearing one of the most elegant outfits" (proceeds to then talk to her and isolate her) "What's your name?" "Nice to meet you [her name], I'm [introduced myself]... listen my friends over there are waiting for me, so I'm gonna make this quick... I find you attractive and would love to take you out sometime soon"
She: "Sure" (with an expression like "whatever")
Me: still not flinching from her reaction, I proceed with... "Cool, so give me your number so we can get to know each other and plan something exciting"
She: "I don't giveaway my number"
Me: "Aww really? You fear I'll kidnap you?" (she and her friends all laugh) "good thing is I gave that up long time ago, so you're safe" (they all laughed again)
She: "No"
Me: "Alright, take it as a compliment then. Have a great night y'all"
Still the rejection didn't affect me. If I hadn't approached maybe I would've kicked myself of not pushing myself out of my comfort zone, so yeah... open to any inputs, where I went wrong, what I could do better etc :)

okay good start man. Def room ffor improvement. With the second girl, the issue is you didnt build up any interest and just went from the opener to close. If you spent 5-10 min chatting witth her, she prob wouldve given you the number :)

I thought as well but with the second girl, the place had loud music and I was bit nervous too. Def gonna build more interest, I think I watched few Gabriel Grey's videos (your too) and you guys do it very well.
I've also watched Scotty Gls vids but I kinda feel he intimidated women more than building interest (just my opinion) but sure I'll def work on it
Do you have any lines or something that I can use or ask to build interest? Not that I want it to feel scripted, just don't want to get blanked out

nah he doesnt intimidate women. In terms of your questions, lines dont build interest. You have to be able to apply the principles of good game and come up with things on your feet. Reading a script can only have the opposite effect
