Hello. This is my first post on this forum, I'm going to divide it in two parts, my background and my first approach experience. I would appreciate your advice. If you find my bg boring, you can skip to the approach part.

My background: I am sort of an asperger very nerdy guy (not ugly though). I like to be alone, don't regularly go out with friends nor do I miss having friends. Despite that, I like (hot) girls a lot, I like to date, interact and of course, fuck them. All of my recent dates were from girls who I met online because of my work (I'm somewhat famous). Although I love my work (which I am not going to disclose to protect my identity), it doesn't give me as many hot girls as I would like, and the ones I get I always end up screwing up with until they finally dump me, which is sad and painful.

After my ex dumped me, I decided my way of dealing with girls in general was fucked up, so I started watching dating advice youtube videos, specifically, Corey Wayne, who taught to pursue little, and not using text except for setting dates and never initiating contact otherwise.

After I started following Corey's advice, I started getting lots of flakes, maybe for the lack of texting, but it seemed I fucked up even more than before and lost some of what I considered to be girls at least above 7.

Since my online fame provides less than enough compared to how fast I screw up, I decided to start both online dating and cold approach.

To be honest, I don't know who to believe. Loads of gurus saying all kinds of shit, I don't trust any of them anymore. I fear that all my effort will have 0 results at the end.

TL,DR:

My first approach: She was walking fast and alone, busy street at night full of pubs. I said "I know it's awkward to speak to you like this, but I saw you, found you beautiful and decided I would say hello". She smiled, said "thanks", I asked a few questions, but ran out of subject, plus she didn't seem interested and was in a hurry to meet friends, so I wished her good evening and said bye.

Most girls were in groups, I was afraid to talk to them, but later decided it would have been better to approach even those in groups.

I realized I lacked subjects to talk about or questions to ask, plus I have absolutely no idea about where physical escalation should start, the idea of touching other people out of the blue is weird to me. Until now, I thought of it as invasive or something, but I might have to reconsider it.

TL,DR 2: I'm a nerd with poor social skills, kinda lost as far as how to deal / approach / text / date women, first approach was awkward and I had no idea on how to carry on even if I decided to.

Thanks for your attention and advice!
