Pick up artistry - what do you think?

[Dave]

So I stumbled on some videos on youtube called "day game pick up artists how to". Simply put.. its about normal looking guys walking up to girls on the street, in club and coffee shops... or wherever and just chatting them up for phone numbers. Most guys though its simply about getting as many numbers dates and sexual encounters as possible. The thing is these girls are really pretty, and these guys are really random. Like the guy just walks up... compliments her on something and then starts chatting to her by asking her random questions... 2 mins later he asks if she'd like to go and get some coffee(This is called getting an instant date) and continue the chat or if not, asks for her number. look a lot of times guys fail... but actually in a day they can get like 2/3 numbers...!?!?!?!?

I've been single for 4 years... not because I'm ugly or anything... I'm pretty confident when it comes to my appearance.. its more my lack of GENERAL confidence and finding it really difficult to meet new people. This looks like a good solution to my problem to be honest.



What do girls think about guys just walking up to them and say something like hey I know this random I think you are really pretty and didn't wanna miss the chance of telling you, ...."she says thank you" and then .. I ask something like so are you from London? .. and so it continues until she tells me to F off or I get her number...


Good idea?


What do you guys think? To weird or awkward?
