Here’s a quick video blog on five of my favourite places to meet women in London during the daytime (or as the more nerdy types like to call it, ‘daygame’)…
Just to recap. Here’s the list again…
1) Oxford Street/Regent Street. Any given day is a good time really. If you don’t see at least one attractive woman every 20 minutes then you’re blind!
2) Camden Market. Best on the weekend between 4 and 6ish, when things quiet down a little from the hustle of the market.
3) Tottenham Court Road. During the week is best. Full of students if that’s your ‘cup of tea’, they do tend to be a little more open-minded.
4) Spitalfields/Brick Lane. Awesome on a Sunday in the summertime! Still good the rest of the year too.
5) The Westfields. The Shepherds Bush Westfield during the week between 4-6 is a pretty prime time, the Stratford Westfield you’re more likely to find a ghetto princess 😉
One side note I’d like to add to this video blog is that London is one of the best cities in the world for meeting women out and about during the daytime.
It’s a huge city and almost anywhere in zones 1-4 of the underground system will be literally full of women each and every day. To be honest, I could have easily made this a top 20 if I’d had the time!
If you’ve got some big balls you could even make a prosperous dating career out of meeting women on the public transport systems, but I’ll talk more about that another time.

Hi Sebastian! I just started doing daygame a few weeks ago. I have done most of my approaches with a wingman. It scares me to do it alone, but I have done it alone 3 or 4 times. In total I have done close to 40 approaches resulting in two numbers (both flakes unfortunately). I don’t do it only to meet women, but also to build my confidence and social skills.
Do you have any advice on how to get started quick when I’m out there alone? I often walk around hours before I dare to do it. Waste of my time…
What do I do if my mind goes blank? This happens to me a lot, also with girls who seem open and responsive, the “yes girls”.
Final question: How do I start to tease/flirt minutes after having met a girl? I can sometimes do this when I have known the girl for a while, but it’s difficult when I have just met someone.
Hey Oscar,
Thanks for getting in touch.
Regarding your first point, first, don’t call it daygame or approaching, abandon all the pickup language and just call it talking to women, it makes things much easier. Second, if you feel fear or resistance don’t try and squash it, simply embrace and accept it. Feel it fully and say to yourself “I’m nervous now, and that’s okay”. When you accept your fear it holds no grip on you.
Similarly, regarding your second point about your mind going blank, accept that too! Accept it so fully that you can even own up to it in your conversation, say something like, “my minds gone blank, you’re so cute I had to come and meet you and now I’m not even sure what to say”. This will free your mind up and allow your creativity to take over and you’ll find what to say thereafter more-often-than-not.
Finally, don’t worry about teasing women too much in the beginning, just try and make a few playful assumptions. Eg, when she tells you her job you can ask her, “Do you work there because you’re passionate about it, or because you’re trying to make tonnes of money and take over the world? It’s the money, right?” Said with a playful smile.
Thank you Sebastian. Do you recommend having a wing or not? I find it hard to do it without a wing, but with a wing his mood affects me, and a lot of the people doing this have a lot of ideas and strange terms, so it becomes a lot of talk talk talk. I find daygame to be sort of strange, and it hasn’t actually given any results after 50-100 approaches and countless of hours of walking around doing it. It is getting more a chore than something fun. Would you recommend leaving it and instead try to do it if I see someone that looks special when I am just on my way somewhere? I find it weird that you have to do something as simple as talking to another human being and expressing attraction for them hundreds of times to master it, like it was learning to play guitar.
Oscar, even the terms ‘wing’ and ‘daygame’ are a little strange aren’t they?
In answer to your question I do think it helps to have a friend to aid and support you when you’re learning to express yourself. A coach or a mentor is better still, but a friend definitely helps. The reason I recommend a coach or a mentor is because you may be making the same mistakes time and again without recognising it.
If it feels like a chore you’re most certainly not doing it right. Whatever you feel, she feels. If it feels like washing the dishes for you, it will feel like that for her too. Focus on the process of expressing yourself without worrying about her response. Tune into feeling what you’re saying and saying what you feel. The more that you do this the more present you become, and the more enlivening the experience is for you and for her too.
I know it feels strange ‘practicing’ but you’re only doing a concentrated practice now because you haven’t been doing it as and when the situation arises for the rest of your life. Guys who don’t need to do concentrated practice, or ‘naturals’, are just those who never held themselves back in the first place, and so gained the desired experience.
And yes, you should definitely try to integrate it into your everyday life. Those situations always work out more favourably because it’s more authentic.
