I wanted to share my experience and get your thoughts. I've noticed that when doing daygame during the day, being more casual and indirect (like starting a natural conversation about something in the environment or asking for recommendations) tends to work better for me compared to immediately going direct.

My dating coaches I hired all advocate for being direct when approaching someone who's by themselves, but I've found this often leads to unsuccessful interactions. I'm curious about your experiences - do you think the success of different approaches varies based on factors like personal style, social skills, or looks?

I'm a short shy Asian guy and I think this style of being direct only works when you are attractive by western standards. Women told me that it is a bit of scary when a stranger, especially men approach you, so I was wondering how you can create more comfort and rapport with women because most of them simply walk away.

What approaches have worked best for you when trying to meet new people in everyday settings? I'm interested in hearing different perspectives on this.
