yer i aggree i think it would also reduce any approach anxiety because you already have an opener listed for mor than one specific time. and by the way how many openers would u right down??? and how would you transistion from "what time is it"
I have different openers for different situations. You really don't need a whole lot. Something like "Hey.. do you know if there is a pizza place around here?" can work almost anywhere outside.
If you are in a mall you can't ask "Where is the Urban Outfitters store?" or if she has a bag with her you can ask where she got it. Bars/clubs you ask: "What are you drinking?"
I don't think you need to write down a whole lot of them. Just enough to have a basis when you are out in the field.
With asking "Hey.. what time is it?" I would transition with something like: "Yeah.. my cell phone is acting funny and I don't have a watch. I think I need a new phone. How is your phone? Is it reliable?"
After she responds I would make a quick comment about her phone then transition to a compliment like: "You're really cute by the way. Are you from this area?"
And go from there until you are ready to close.
