I just put out this video about the importance of having a normal conversation instead of relying mainly on techniques and pickup routines.

Women are beautiful and fickle creatures, they might love you when you approach them but this good emotion will be swiftly swiped away by the next emotion passing her through. Unless you make yourself real to her.

Easiest way to do this is also not the sexiest way : you want to spend time with her.

Normal regular small talk should make up 80% of your interactions.
