By Don Diego Garcia and Cosmo Have you experienced this scenario before? ... Your Buddy: "Hey! Why don't you go talk to that cute girl over there?" You: "She IS cute, isn't she!? But gosh, I, I just don't know what to say. I don't want to say the wrong thing and look like an idiot!"
Your Buddy: "Just say anything. Go. Now! Look! She's getting up and packing her stuff..." You: "Yeah... naw... I don't know. Well, she's walking away now. It's too late. Whatever. I'm such a loser."
There may be hundreds of open debates for methods of creating and developing happy, successful relationships, but this truism is rule number one: "You can't win, if you don't play." That is the bottom line of bottom lines. Even the Lottery picked up that tagline. If you stay in your invisible box, you will never form a new relationship. That's for sure. If you go to work, or to school, don't talk to anyone, then go home to eat and sleep, and just repeat this same cycle all over again, day after day, you will be sure to get stuck in a lonely rut that is difficult to climb out of. Instead, you will have to talk to people in a friendly way to establish and build new relationships. First, just start by talking to people you know, like friends and family, for practice. Then, sooner or later, you are going to have to "make the big jump" and do the unthinkable: Talk to a stranger or group of strangers. That's called "Approaching and Opening", also known as a "Cold Approach".

Since many openers do not cover all three objectives, you may want to memorize and use multiple openers so that you are able to lead with one after another if needed. Some people call this method "Stacking Openers".
