Start the clock. right now, not literally. Here we go. Tip number one, the most important tip of all in my book, convey the real you. When you meet a woman, give her a radically authentic approach opener.
This is my favorite way to approach a woman. When you see a woman you want to approach and talk to, Skip the canned lines. Be what I call radically authentic. Lead with vulnerability. Say something true, something simple, and something G-rated about what you're actually feeling, even if it's a little bit scary. Actually, especially if it's a little bit scary.
The first time I ever did this, I'm on a rooftop bar. I see a beautiful woman in a silver dress. I approach her. I'm so nervous. I'm so scared. I walk over and I say, hey, excuse me, but I just had to meet you. I'm actually really shy. I'm shy, but I had to come say hi to you. I'm Connell. And her face lit up and she said, oh yeah, right. You're real shy. Hi, I'm Amy. And she was into it.
She thought it was a line. It wasn't a line. It was me being radically authentic. Because when you approach a woman and you say the honest, real thing, It shows her that you actually have belief in yourself, even if you're nervous. So approach with radical authenticity. And if you are a nervous, shy guy, use that. Say, hey, excuse me, I'm really shy, but I had to meet you.
You seem like you might be my type. It is so powerful because it's vulnerable and it's real. Okay, tip number two, be playful on first dates by playing fun games. I don't like to play games on first dates in the game playing sense, you know, manipulation, all that BS. But I love to play games on first dates, actual games. So on a first date, do a staring contest with her.
Play two truths and a lie. Challenge her to a thumb war. If I could boil down what flirting is into one word, it's play. That's all it is. It's a man and a woman playing together. If you look up the word flirtatious in Webster's, it actually says, quote, playing at love. That's what flirting is. Flirting is play. And so, yeah, be playful on first dates. Play games. Get to know you games.
