I'm attending a new university with thousands of students, 60% female. I also have a specific goal of getting a long term girlfriend this semester. So there are theoretically thousands of opportunities to fulfill my goal. However, I don't actually know any of these young women, and don't have any real excuse for talking to them. Pick lines from the internet are too cheesy or creepy, and that ones I think up are too insane. So that leaves just "Hi my name is ___ what's your name?" to some random person as she is walking to class or reading under a tree or just passing the time around campus.

One big advantage: I could probably do this five times a day for the rest of the semester before running out of opportunities. Mathematically Even if 1% of girls actually give out their phone number, that is a new phone number each couple of weeks.

Concerns:
- A girl probably wouldn't like being interrupted from her book/homework/whatever and would be suspicious of a seemingly uncaused introduction, and may not want to talk to me.
- My friend asked out many different women at his college, but only got lucky when his study buddy approached him.
- "Dating isn't a numbers game."
- I'm incredibly shy. Approaching random attractive women is nerve wracking. (Just now I followed a girl for half an hour because I couldn't talk to her).
- Would it be easier to focus on class mates or other girls I know from elsewhere first?

Question Asker That is kind of a nice idea. But I know perfectly well where my classes are, and I would feel weird about pretending otherwise. It would feel like I'm lying right when I meet her the very first time! Even if it such a small white lie. - 2 months ago

I'm probably not the best counsellor when it comes to flirting and getting laid, but I'd counsel you to pick one or two girls as "just friends", treat them well and be seen with them a lot. You'll end in their friend zone, of course but they will serve you as an introduction to other girls (you can recommend them to serious guys if they're looking for a guy): I heard much later my wife checked me out with common friends (girls, of course ;)) before dating me. (Yes, I heard it from herself and IMHO she was very right to do so!)
Besides, a guy who's rarely seen with a girl isn't very interesting to other girls: success (or the image of it) breeds success.
