For those of us who live in big cities that take their corona virus lockdown pretty seriously, let's talk about the state of cold approach and what our options are...

For starters:

  • All bars and nightclubs are closed, meaning night game is off the table
  • Most people follow 6 ft away + mask rules
    • Adds friction to any approach
    • Makes it more difficult to read body language
    • Probably can't add any physicality on the approach
  • People aren't outdoors as much and there are very few social gatherings of any kind
  • All gyms/yoga studios/fitness classes/etc are closed, reducing potential venues even further

​

What options does this leave us?

  • Grocery store
    • Most people I see in grocery stores seem pretty stressed out and in a rush
    • Seems like a bad option imo
  • Outdoor parks
    • Many people sitting around hanging out with their friends socially distanced
    • More fun vibe, people are often drinking and having a good time
    • Seems like the only potential option

So maybe you could go approach a group of cute girls in a park on a nice day, banter with them, and then get one of their numbers, all while staying socially distanced. And from there, depending on the girl's comfort level, maybe do a Facetime "date" before hanging out in person.

That's basically all I can think of, the current situation is pretty bleak cold approach wise. Or maybe I'm not bold enough or am missing something otherwise. Would love to hear your thoughts!
