That's a pretty interesting opener, and I could see it being the sort of thing girls would really get into, so nice work on that front too. Repect for coming up with your own opener aswell, not nearly enough people do this, and it'd great to see new PUA's that are taking that step (that EVERYONE should be) to make their own material when they start.

This is a great idea for one, and the other posters here have cleaned it up for you. A backing story IS something that you should have in there. It doesnt need to be detailed, but a little hint that roots the opener to the moment helps avoid that horrible shit-test of "Why are you asking us this?" or "Why are you talking to us?".

Good work man, go open a few sets and report on how it runs! Better yet, try out the different versions here and post which one works best.

Personally, I think you'd find that your version works the best. The other two are technically better openers, but you will say your own more naturally, so it will get a better response. keep in mind that you should definatley look to evolve it over time so that it naturally turns into something like what's posted here.

Totally agree with monkey. You have too root your opener, why do you ask for their opinion?
If you don't root the opener they will know that you have an agenda which is bad of course.
I will also add that don't ask if you can ask. Don't start opening by saying "Can I ask you...." or "so can I grab.." bla bla. If you ask them if you can ask them a question it seems like you're insecure and therefore conveying DLV.

Basically, if your opener asks if you could ask them a question... It will give you an additional and unnecessary chance to fail the set.

very cool i'm going to try it out tomorrow

great stuff... going to use it today during day game

You know I have an idea for the female opinion... try this

Hey, I need your opinion on fashion. Then ask them: what do you think about my hair?

HB: Good/Cool/Awesome or Bad/Sucks/won't get you anywhere

So if it was the positive one say:

YOU: oh no no no no, I wanted an OPINION, not flirting.

If they laugh come clean and say: well, that makes the two of us, what's your name? and go on.


If it was negative, say: uhaaa, finally, someone with constructive criticism. Tell me what can I do to improve it. She would talk or just walk away if she's ignoring you. If she talked and tried to explain tell her, you know something, you are nice, I was just trying to flirt with you
Clever?

Good luck from me too!

i like this. thankyou

nice opener

Good. it seems like it would work.

If I were to add one suggestion it would be to open with "would you mind if I got your opinion..." instead of "would you mind if I grab a quick opinion..."
