This is what a lot of guys do when they get nervous talking to a girl at the beginning and it destroys the interaction completely.

It’s called questions of doom.

How are you? Where are you from? What do you do?

This signals to the girl you have little conversational value to provide and you are too timid to maintain a real conversation.

So instead force your brain to make assumptions and actually provide some value to the interaction

I see the stylish yoga pants, you must be one of those home fitness instructors doing timer workouts

4 shopping bags, wow, either you're a fashion addict or you are optimizing your life hard and batching all the tasks

The point is it doesn’t matter what you say as long as you’re driving the conversation forward and not expecting the girl to do so.

How does it look like in practice?

I demonstrated this in real life here in this Youtube video
