Do not be sexual.
If the girl truly likes you, you don't need to game her much. The problem is they don't really like you to begin with, otherwise they would be receptive to a simple "Hey there".
Keep in mind there is a lot of fake profiles and girls just looking for validation and ego-boosts on apps like Tinder.
Girls are not above using guys purely for validation with no intention of fucking them.
Your best opener is gonna be a short unique funny line.

Even that is not so easy to find in most places during the day.
You are going to waste more time looking for the girl than talking to her. It is much more efficient to just to the mall for 3 hours on the weekend and do all your approaches back to back. You will also build up a nice momentum that way.
You have to be pretty skilled to just cold-open a random girl you see walking past you as you're going about your day. Most guys will never muster the balls to seize that opportunity. They will just talk themselves out of it. It takes a lot of approaching to get confident enough to the point where you can seize such a spontaneous occurrence. It will take you 30 minutes just to psych yourself up do it unless you are experienced.
It's much easier to talk about approaching than actually doing it.

@Phyllis Wagner Like I told you guys before, if you don't have above average looks, you should not be wasting your time with online dating at all. It will not work. Not amount of editing your photos will suffice. You will just make yourself depressed.
Change your strategy to real-life game. You know -- the way humans have done for 400,000 years.
And stop using covid as an excuse. Covid will pass, life will go on. The best girls are not found on Tinder.
You want hot girls? Work for it! You will instantly feel much better as soon as you start doing serious work rather than clicking buttons and praying for luck.

That's why spiritual practices are required and enlightenment is required.
Taking a psychedelic does not make you enlightened. It gives you a peak at what you can become with hardcore spiritual practice.
You got the peak, but you don't want to do any hardcore spiritual practice. That's your problem. You are expecting psychedelics to be a magic pill.

Yes, but if you think you can rely on development to awaken you, you'll be very disappointed. It won't.
If you want awakening, the only way to get it is to work your ass for it with intense focus and clarity of purpose.
No hardcore spiritual practices, no awaken. It's that simple.
Which is the reason 99.9999% of people are not awake and will never be awake.

Need to learn to get out of your head and be focused enjoying her.
The best advice for having sex with a woman is that once the clothes come off, you throw out all your doubts and hesitations, you grab her, and do whatever you want with her. Don't be meek here. Fuck her how you want to fuck her. She wants you to take her without any reservations. Take her in your unique and authentic way.
Put 100% of your focus on that process, and you will find yourself not in your head any more.

The verbal content of your opener is basically irrelevant.
I've opened with "I have the most amazing sperm."
I've opened with "Hey ladies, what's your opinion on glory holes? Pro or con?"
I've opened with "I'm looking for a wife."
I've opened with "Hi, I'm Sprinkles. Who are you?"
I've opened with "I love you."
I've opened with "I hate you."

No one cares about your muscles but your own ego. No girl is gonna fuck you because of your muscles unless you look like a pro bodybuilder. You would get more sex if you invested your time at the gym into talking to girls.
Grooming, dress, and hygiene you should certainly optimize. But that's so basic I don't even consider it "looks".

That's some oldschool Tyler gold.

Counter-intuitively yes. Lot of pickup actually teaches you how to be more expressive like a girl. To flow more with your feelings. Most guys are so stuck in their heads they are disconnected from their feelings. Feelings are not just feminine, they are also masculine.
You will attract way more girls by being emotionally expressive than you will by being stoic.
It's similar to how you talk to children or dogs. You adopt an over-emotionalized, playful attitude. You don't treat the interaction seriously. Likewise when attracting women. Treat women like children when trying to flirt with them.
Watch videos of men flirting with women.

No it wouldn't because it's absurd to expect everyone to be attracted to you.
Even if you are Brad Pitt not every girl will be attracted to you.
Even a 10% raw physical attraction rate is very good. You don't need more.
Personally I know that I'm only truly attracted to maybe 1-2% of women. Which is rather a curse that I live with.

Highly extroverted guys with massive natural effortless charisma.
Unfortunately that ain't me.
Extroversion is directly correlated to how much sex you will have.

I was 110% committed to fixing this area of my life. So failure and quitting was not even an option.
It only took a few months. Nothing in the grand scheme of things. And it was an exciting journey. Some of my fondest memories today are my early days of game.

@Vrubel Whenever an attractive girl locks and holds eyes with you, you must approach her immediately. That is her telling you: "Come fuck me please."
If you do those kind of approaches you will see the girl is super-receptive and your job of picking her up becomes almost effortless.
So don't ever pass those up.
Stop blinking like a fool, grow some balls and approach.

There are many pros and cons to each.
Day pros:
Virtually zero competition Less noise and obstacles, no friends to cock-block. It's easier to have a conversation. Can run into girls who are introverted and/or don't like to drink or party. Higher quality girls overall. Good even if you're alone (without friends or wings) Day cons:
Much smaller volume of girls, your approach needs to be well-honed. Waste a lot of time just standing around. Not efficient. Not so good for building up skills. Girls often have boyfriends You're basically only grabbing phone numbers Can't physically escalate much, your game needs to be much more chill and toned down. Night pros:
Lots more targets. Far more efficient use of your time. Girls are looser and down to fuck Much more likely to be single, less boyfriend rejections. Much better for training and practicing your skills Can get away with sloppy approaches and social awkwardness better Can do rapid and heavy physical escalation Night cons:
Lots of competition Lots of noise and distractions, hard to hear, hard to talk. Messes with your sleep schedule Need to go for one-night stands, forced to close same-night Drunk girls Friends cockblocking Dancing The club can be very intimidating if you're alone. Wings are more important. Lots of dealing with annoying logistics challenges - - - - - -
Over all, day game is awesome. The two serious problem with it are:
Far too few hot girls walking around during the day. The best ones are rarely single Day game is really only viable in certain locations with high volumes of people and hot girls. Such locations tend to be hard to find. Or you can do day game very sporadically as you do your grocery shopping, etc. But this is far too infrequent to be relied upon. It's more of a bonus you get as a veteran of the game. Once you have built up your skills you should be able to execute a solid approach on any random hot girl you see anywhere during the day.

@Vrubel There are basically only two motivations in life: avoidance and seeking.
If you ain't seeking truth for its own sake, the only other way you can find it through avoidance of suffering or by accident.

Sorry, didn't read that far.
In that case, your victim mentality is even more bullshit. As long as there are hot girls around, you can get them by talking to them. Frat boys and jocks are irrelevant. Why do you even think about them?
Yes, Covid sucks for pickup. Wait it out like the rest of us. You are so young the rest of your life is still ahead of you. I didn't even start pickup until 26/27.
What I wouldn't give to be back in college again. OMG, like shooting fish in a teapot with a shotgun.
Cheer up bro. Have a long-view perspective. Covid will end and you will get much better with girls if you work at it. Jocks don't matter. So all is good. If the girls are as slutty as you say, then you should have no problem sleeping with them. Sluttiness works in your favor if you make yourself into a high quality guy. She will fuck a few jocks, then fuck you, see how much better you are, and stick with you.

Stop thinking negative thoughts and just go out and talk to more girls. That's the simply solution. You can't think your way out of this situation.
Be very mindful of your negative thoughts. You need to learn to channel your mental energies towards productive action.
Move to a city which has lots of hot girls. Talk to them frequently. Problem solved. If you can't move now, start making plans to move and build the resources to move. This laying of plans will lift your depression.
The reason you're depressed is because you have no hope. And the reason you have no hope is because you're not thinking far enough outside the box and taking radical ownership of your life situation.
You are young and there are literally thousands of hot girls you can meet and sleep with if you really wanted to. But you don't really want to do the work for it. Hence you're depressed.

Don't qualify yourself or seek to impress. Rather deflect her trap by saying something like, "When I crash, it will be all passenger side, Don't worry, your death will be quick and relatively painless."
Do not fall for a girl's trap where she tries to get you to sell yourself to her. You are the prize, not her.
Don't do these serious talks on dates. This is awful.
Instead ask her something like, "What weapon would you select in a zombie apocalypse?"
"If you were an animal, what animal would you be?"
"What is your favorite part of your body?"
WTF is this??! Get out of that car and get your hands all over her body and kiss her.
- - - - -
Overall you are too serious. Be more playful and fun and illogical and nonsensical and emotional. Turn on some dumb music in the car and sing and dance with her. Tell her stories. Be dumb, in a clever way

Best pickup technique: approach 5000 girls.

No kiss? So the fuck what? Carry on business as usual.
P.S. Driving around on a first date is terrible.

@Ghost
A) Stop dating girls that young. 25 at least, preferably 30ish. What do you expect from a 19 year old? She'll be as dumb as a coffee table.
B) Of course you should be screening girls on more than just looks. Sacrifice a few points on looks to get a better personality and higher wisdom/maturity. Game can certainly help you with this since it will give you more options and screening is an important part of proper game. The mistake is thinking of a 10 as purely based on looks. 10 means the whole package, which includes personality, education, cognitive development, spiritual development, career, finances, etc. All that stuff matters. Settle for a 7-8 on looks.
C) And of course society's 10 scale is totally irrelevant. Make your own scale.

Nothing you say in online game matters. It's 100% looks. If you got the looks you don't need to try to open her with clever lines or game her. All you gotta do is say, "Hi, I'm _____ . What's your number?"
And no amount of clever texting is gonna get her to like you if your looks suck, so don't waste your time.
If a girl has an active online account obviously she's interested in sex.
Offline game is very different because the girl often isn't even actively trying to date and the competition is way less.
The problem with online game is that it's so explicit and lazy that the competition is too steep. You have no edge. There is no reason why the girl would not select the hottest guy she can see. Zero reason. Offline game is totally different because she has way fewer options. She cannot compare you to 100 other guys. Don't put yourself into a position where she can compare you to 100 other guys. This is a losing position. You might as well bend over and let her stick a carrot in your ass while you're at it.

Lol
The most conservative women on online dating sites are the biggest sluts
Whenever a girl writes in her profile:
"I'm not looking for causal sex or hook-ups."
That's how you know she will fuck you on the first night.
It's all bullshit. Stop buying it when these girls peddle you their virginhood and saintliness. Stage Blue people are sexually repressed freaks and that sexuality is just waiting to explode like a Champagne cork.
Don't be surpised with your virgin girl comes to Vegas and gets banged by 3 strangers in one night. And then the next day acts like she's still a virgin. It's all an act. And she bullshits herself as much as she bullshits you.
