Keep that in mind. Honestly...it's all about the confidence you have when delivering the line. It's the sexiest thing someone can posess. Just don't go overboard or it comes off as arrogant. Confidence + genuine interest + smile= MUY CALIENTE!!!

(Field tested...) 'Stick Em up!' 'I noticed something about you...' 'Would you mind if....' 'Guess what just happened!' 'Do you speak English...' Remember, it's not necessarily <a href="http://www.danamrichardson.com/2007/07/03/opening-people-conversation-starters-openers-and-hollas-pt-1/" rel="nofollow">how you open someone</a>, its <a href="http://www.danamrichardson.com/2007/06/09/not-what-you-say/" rel="nofollow"> how you respond</a> to the response they give you... Some of my favorite openers.. (Field tested…)

‘Stick Em up!’
‘I noticed something about you…’
‘Would you mind if….’
‘Guess what just happened!’
‘Do you speak English…’

Remember, it’s not necessarily how you open someone, its how you respond to the response they give you…
