1) Play the numbers game. That is, meet as many women as you can. Expect to be rejected frequently. But rejection doesn't count. Acceptance does, and if you stick with it, you'll find some women accept you.
2) Don't use pick up lines. Try to strike up a conversation instead. Ask neutral questions at first to get a conversation going, even if the questions are bland, "That's an interesting drink you've got. What's it made of? It looks like it's got gin or maybe scotch in it." is dull as hell, but a better conversational starter than almost any pick up line.
3) Be yourself. Your lighthearted and humorous self. If you put on a front or mask, you'll never find anyone who likes you for yourself. How could they when you refuse to show them yourself?
4) Make her the center of your attention. If you can't do that, move on to someone you're interested in enough to make the center of your attention.
5) If and when you get rejection, don't force it. Move on to the next woman. Again, play the numbers game rather than spend all your time pursuing one hard to get person (You'll probably just annoy them if you do).
6) At some point, she'll either show some real interest in you, or she'll indicate that she's not interested. If the former, she'll more than likely start encouraging you, and perhaps she'll even do things to make it easier for you. If the latter, move on to the next woman.
Those are six points to get you started, Kori. I'm sure there's better advice than this out there. But basics like the above have worked for me time and again. Good luck!
P/S: if none of the above works, try dressing up like a goat and dancing for your intended. I hear from
@The Neo Nerd that it works.
