Dating Research Home The Best Pickup Line…Ever! Details Magazine The bottom line of this article is: Almost any guy can meet women in bars and clubs if he actually DOES something besides stand there. And yes, he is going to get shot down a lot but it's not going to be as bad as he thinks. Face it, most guys are somewhat shy about approaching a beautiful stranger in a bar. We pretty much all have the same fear that just as we finish our lame opening line, the band will stop and the girl, her friends, your friends, and everyone else in the room will have an uproarious laugh at your expense. Details sent a smart but shy, glasses wearing staffer out to bars in New York City every night for two weeks. His goal was just to get women to talk to him. No phone numbers or quick trips to the alley, just conversation. He could not do anything tricky or cheesy. He was armed only with a smile and the following line: "Hi, my name is Dave. Do you mind if I join you?" The idea was to prove that many women will actually have a conversation with you, and that even if you get blown off, it won't be as painful as you think. So how did he do? Well, pretty well actually. He got rejected, but usually in a very nice way. No harm no foul. It turns out that he managed to engage in a decent conversation about 20% of the time. And he is a pretty average looking guy. He advises you to choose the bar carefully so that you fit in with the crowd and to approach groups of women rather then singles. So, over the course of a five hour evening out, do you think you can take one shot an hour? One 30 second risk every 60 minutes? It sounds easy enough and could change your whole dating life. Why not give it a shot!
