Hey, Im kinda new to this (M30) even though I have had a share of success with women, I have never been able to approach a random girl during day time without being at a party. Im not very confident around attractive women and would like to improve in this

Yesterday for the first time I approached one girl during day time and I would like some feedback on how to inprove. She was just beautiful, grocery shopping, I waited outside and grabbed the courage to talk to her while she was leaving. At the beggining It felt okey, but I got quickly nervous and felt that I couldnt hold a proper conversation, so after about a minute or two I panicked and left, the interaction went something like this:

  • hey Im ..... Nice to meet you
  • her: hey how are you.... -me: im good thanks, hbu ... -her: why do you seem shocked? -me: because I Saw you inside the supermarket and thought you were cute and wanted to introduce myself. Are you surfing around here. -her: yes, I live here , work remotely.....
  • me: cool, which spot do you usually surf ....

At this point I was feeling super tense and could tell my body language was very stiff, became super concious and couldnt Focus on the conversation so I politely left the conversation without asking for a date or phone number cause It felt like I was sucking

Im kinda happy I did It and It didnt feel super terrible, specially at the beggining, so how would you go from here? Does just going for more approaches like this build some confidence or game? Ir should I Focus on specific parts of my inner game? Thanks all.
