1. Opening a group / attracting attention and interest
This is what happens: I see a set of girls (usually I know them as I try to use PUA stuff everyday at school) and I can usually get over AA and approach, but I don't know what to use as an opener, and how to attract attention. I often find myself approaching with no opener and standing with them. They don't mind that, they usually acknowledge me and continue talking. I feel left out at this point, so I try to join in on the conversation, and they kind of quickly fill me in then keep talking.

2. Over thinking
I also seem to think too much about what to say next. I find myself really thinking of something clever / funny / witty to say, or something interesting, or something seductive. Thinking too much about this obviously doesn't work because a conversation moves too fast for you to stop and think about what to say; it has to come naturally, natural game. Any advice on this?

Approaching is the scary part.
The actual conversation is where the real fun begins.

Approach them with a story that happened.. you're at school, something happens like every day.. Teacher flipped out, guy shit his pants in class, I don't know. You need to take in the world around you and then dish it back out because that's what humans do.

You're having a dialogue in your head while the dialogue is really in the group. Try changing your mindset once you're in that group to not only becoming part of it, but then leading it. If you don't like what they are talking about, change the fucking subject.. so long as it's a good subject.
