Went out on Saturday with a couple of friends.
We started late- 12:45ish. I saw a lady at the smokes table. Opened with a playful remark about getting away from the noise. Very little engagement, no positive reaction. Didn't know how to continue, but my friend stepped in and continued talking. Lady excused herself soon after.
Next I opened a girl at the bar with some humour about her disappearing behind the bigger guys. She was friendly but not receptive, made small talk about drinks. Tried to do push-pull, but I don't know how to well enough yet and stumbled over my words. Lady was friendly but not interested.
Spent the next hour or so chatting with some guys to try and save my mental game.
The three of us changed clubs. Didn't get into other since friend was too drunk. Finally found one after friend sobered up. Mental state completely lost. Couldn't open, didn't know how to speak, what to say, stood around like a Muppet.
Notes: no clue how to express interest, opening is difficult for me, I'm not even nervous the same way anymore, I just have no idea what to say. I get short-circuited on the opener and freeze. Physical appearance is fine: good haircut, well-dressed, showered, cologne. Apparently I get stares from women, but no clue how to respond (mental game).
Overall- Painful/10 hopefully I can improve.
Any tips to help me would be appreciated, I feel very stuck
