*Stare, smile, wait for them to use classic opener.*

Stare is okay, and smile too. whenever you are staring at someone say to yourself in silence "you're welcome me", "I'm smiling to you because this is the way I am, friendly". you make yourself look more friendly, people will notice you friendly instead of creepy :)

This one I actually tried and worked on my ex...I am referring to touch rugby in the quote by the way..

Me "You look like you play touch.. do you?"

Her "Yeah havn't in a while!"

Me :"can you play for my team? we are a social mixed team and looking for players as we are short and in need of some seriously commited players..were not the greatest team but its for fun and exercise nothing serious...You know?

Her..mmm yep

Me: can I have your number so I can contact you..(and the rest was history lol)

I know corny but simple...and I actually was playing for a social mixed touch team so it's not total crap

lol.. These are more how to get yourself slapped by a complete stranger than classic openers.

"That dress looks great on you, but it would look better on my bedroom floor."

"You may not be the best looking girl here, but beauty is only a light switch away."

Im not bad at approaching, but I suck at making the conversation go on =s

well, that's very common with social phobics. About neurology; When you feel intense fear or anxiety your mind goes blank. The mind goes blank because the talamous (located in the central part of the brain, it sends information to all parts of the brain) shuts down. That's why It's hard for social phobics to get in conversations.

How much does a polar bear weigh?

People are wild and unpredictable like snakes, and I prefer not to approach if at all possible. At least snakes will try to get out of your way.
