What's your day game approach?
I've just started doing it in Copenhagen. Until now, I never really did it consistently, but I'd like to start. You may find yourself pleasantly surprised after experiencing the ravages of night game. Just started, done a few half-assed approach, no closes. Some preliminary observations:
The directions opener works. It stops the girl and it’s natural enough that her alarms aren’t set off, it gives her a reason to stand and talk to you. No one can belt out perfect directions on the fly, so she’ll deliberate a bit, giving you an opportunity for normal conversation. I was pussy for a while to approach as what openers I had didn’t seem compelling enough to stop a girl in her tracks.
The interaction changes the moment you go from asking, to making a funny observation or comment. It seems like being warm and smiling as you’re asking primes her for having a fun conversation. Ie., if you ask for directions in a very plain way, it’ll seem a little off to have a regular conversation, like “ wait, what, he wants to talk to me?” ; if you seem like a fun warm guy, well, that’s just what you do.
She goes from doing a task, giving you directions, to enjoying herself by talking to you. The comment doesn’t have to be related to the opener, eg opener then random observation (eg, “Oh my god, I just came from the gym, and I was jumping this weight over my head, and this old woman was practically running away, scared that I’d drop it on her” “I just talked to my friend in Paris, and he. . .”) Or it could be related, not sure yet if there’s a difference in effectiveness.
Structure:
Warm vibe throughout
Opener – ask for directions
Funny observation/story with temporal/contextual relevance, so it comes off as natural.
Humor, especially jokes/scenarios that involve her in some way in multi-threaded conversation
Some rapport – exchange names, ask about her
More humor
Instant date or suggest a meetup in the future, then number close [haven’t gotten to this point on recent approaches]
If the conversation dies out, bust out another funny observation or story, or a relevant opinion opener – eg you asked about a music store, conversation dies out, you say “speaking of music, what do you think of Chris Brown?”
Let your first try be with a place you actually want to find.
Here is one that went well while it lasted:
Walking on a pedestrians only street, notice two blondes walking in the same direction to my left. One is a 9, the other a 6. Deliberate for a moment, say:
“Hey guys, do you know where a good shwarma place is [they’re all over]?”
Them: uh they’re all around, maybe there’s one over there. . .
Me: Ever since I got to Copenhagen, that’s all I’ve been eating, just schwarma and falafel.”
Vibe totally changes, the nine starts laughing, the six has the vibe of “oh god, another guy hitting on my friend”
Me: Alright, where’s the best schwarma in town then?
Nine: You should come to Norrebro, it’s half the price and tastes better.
Me: Oh, that’s the place with all the shootings, right? [smiling]
Nine: [smiles] oh well I live there, and I’m fine
Me: So I’ll get shot, but the schwarma will make it worth it.
We see a schwarma place, I smile and say goodbye, and part ways.
I said more than the above, but don't really remember. I did at one point say where I lived, but it did nothing for the interaction. Conveying info kills the vibe.
Sorta feel like a poser posting without much success in this regard. I haven’t daygamed recently or consistently, but I have had success with it before. Also, people suggest using a time constraint at the beginning.
Roosh, what openers do you suggest for the street, as well as a bookstore, coffeeshop and a grocery store?
