Let's check out 5 of them.

THE COMPLIMENT

"You smell amazing! What cologne are you wearing?"

"Excuse me? Have you always been this beautiful?"

"Did the sun come out or did you just smile?"

Everybody loves a compliment or two, and a good one is an excellent conversation starter. Pay that person a compliment next time you stand behind him or her on a jam-packed train, in a bar or any public place that puts both of you within close proximity.

THE OPINION

"Can you help me out? I'm having a debate with my friend and I need to know your opinion."

"Hi, there! Do you think that iPad 3 is way better than Kindle for eBooks?"

"Hello! I can't help but wonder... Do you think this painting accurately depicts the Renaissance Era?"

Needless to say, asking for opinions is a great way to strike a long, meaningful conversation. Just make sure that you won't tread on serious, sensitive topics though. You really don't want to start a heated argument with your potential lover right now, do you? This opening line works best on a park, a party, a gallery or any other place that is conducive to long discussions.

THE HELP

"Hi, do you happen to know where I can find the treadmill? I'm new here."

"Excuse me, can you please tell me where the Liberty Bell is? I think I'm lost."

"I have no idea what to order in this place. Can you help me out?"

Human beings are helpful by nature, so when you ask for help, you would most likely end up in a conversation or better yet, a date. This tactic usually works best in the streets, department stores, restaurants or any other places that have people regularly coming by.

THE QUESTION

"Hi, may I know what your zodiac sign is?"

"Am I right to say that your favorite color is blue?"

"Do you think Stephen King should be considered a legendary author?"

A good number of love stories started out with a question. It is an excellent conversation starter that allows you to get to know the other person instantly. This technique works out well in a library, a bookshop or any other intellectual hub that lets you pretend to be doing a research on a certain topic.

THE CONFIRMATION

"Don't you think the weather is just perfect today?"

"Isn't it cold?"

"Don't you just love this band?"

Asking for a confirmation never fails to establish a positive link between you and the other person. But before pulling out this strategy, be certain that the person you are about to talk to really is on the same plane as you, or you'd end up losing your shot in the dating world. This opening line can work on an event's place like a fair, concert, or the beach.

Intro lines can either make or break your way towards the dating and love realm, so you have to make sure that you use the all right ones at all the right places.
