5 numbers. 0 dates. I approach on the street, grocery stores, malls, and the beach.

I open with "hi excuse me, I wanted to come talk to you, because you look cute" then I introduce my self and talk about where they from. What they like to do, etc.

Maybe I'm the silent majority here but this cold approaching barely works. I cant even get a girl meet me for a date. I went cold approaching with other guys and they get dates here and there. I shoot for insta dates if I can.

Do I just have to keep pushing through the pain and pumping these numbers up?
