hello everybody

I'm 25, lurking for a couple days, while I read The Game
I'm also suffering from oneits after a long relationship (6 years), even after a couple months

but I hadn't been with anyone else during this period, so I'm trying to fix things up

while I don't like nightclubs and I don't have many single friends in my city, I was thinking about just trying to approach some woman to lose fear

for starters, I'm always leaving my house ready for a date (clean, shaved, nice clothes, etc... which is something I didn't do before since I don't care too much about my appearance)

anyway
today I was LEAVING a doctor's office and I noticed a girl staring me for a couple seconds in the reception room
it was like:
- I get out and make eye-contact with the girl looking at me
- I look away and check her with my peripheral vision for 1 or 2 seconds... she keeps looking
- I make eye-contact again and she's still looking (but now she looks away)

maybe I'm getting overconfident after reading a little, but I considered she was into me

the problem is... I was LEAVING, I had nothing else to do there
so... I couldn't think on anything to start a conversation that wouldn't look weird

is there something that I could have done, just in case something similar happens again?

the best I could think was something lame like "hey, is your name [something]?"

just memorize some openers or say some funny bullshit, the worst that can happen is that she excuse herself and leave, for sure better than not saying anithing.

example

me:hey nice shoes
hb:thanks
me:i'm talking about mine geez... anyway bla bla

or shit like that

or just goand touch her and say TAG i'm playing a game that i have to touch all the nice girls i see and withu is 10 points

(dont remember whos the credits of these)

TRUST YOURSELF
EXPECT THE BEST

the best way to avoid failure is to see it as a feedback

smile (important) and just say "hey, how's it going?" go from there. it's not complicated all the time or anytime. simple stuff. what you thinking will work.

Oh oh oh it's magic

In the social setting of a doctor's office, I think "hey, how's it going?" is ok. She gave you an IOI by eye contact, plus it's not a nightclub where all the bitchshields are high
