Re: Pursuit of happiness
Have you just been dumped?
I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

I've struck up a couple relationships from random subway meetings, although they are typically short, as in less than 3 months. I'd say just take a look at her and see if there is anything about her you can comment on. Is she wearing a festival marker, a particular piece of clothing etc. Once you've said the first sentence the next is bound to come more naturally. If it doesn't, you'll at least have some more experience walking up to girls which is good in itself. Girls really enjoy these random encounters and are very likely to want to meet you if you can strike up a decent, normal conversation at a moment's notice.
If you're really nervous and/or cannot possibly think of anything to say, you can try to guess when she needs to get off from her stance in the seat (most people have pretty obvious body language, you'll know what to look for after a couple observations) and talk to her then. Just say you noticed she was very beautiful and you'd like to meet her sometime. If you timed it wrong, she's getting off too soon and you're not in a hurry, you can even go off at her stop. Get her phone number and make sure she notices that you stay and wait for the next transport (romantic), unless you worry about her standing around and continuing the conversation, which you shouldn't worry about as it's only another indication that she's interested.
When you do meet afterwards you can talk about the crazy situation you met in. Since she doesn't know the first thing about you except that you are confident enough to approach her, you're probably better off taking her to a short and non-threatening meeting the first time, like a lunch or walk in a park or something. If you feel it is going really well you can suggest to prolong the meet, but usually end it there; always keep them wanting more.
My track record of getting phone numbers this way is about 80% (for non-taken ones, that is... for taken ones it's very low but non-zero) and actually getting to meet after is about 40%. The best part of all this is, even if you screw up, you'll get better at talking to random people, which is only a good thing.

Mwah, being too agressive doesn't help either, depends on what kind of guy you are. I am not a pick-up in a subway kinda guy it's just not part of my make-up. Had a few one-nighters but it was always me being seduced, not going for that myselve I like to have it grown a little.
Nothing, shes attracted to you.What to do if you notice you have just attracted a beautiful girl?
"The facts of history cannot be purely objective, since they become facts of history only in virtue of the significance attached to them by the historian." E.H. Carr
In case you missed it, this is not a way of seduction, it's a way to get contact. In fact, I mostly go for the long haul myself, and at any rate you're unlikely to find an instant partner in such an unlikely situation. Pickup lines work in bars because girls too are out to get some there (and what line you use doesn't matter, as first impressions are already made before you make contact), but they are not looking for a partner in a subway carriage. I suspect this is part of the reason why approaching them yields pretty good results in the first place, it catches them off guard.
Edit: By the way, I should add that this is outdated information. I haven't been pursuing anyone for more than 4 years, due to my longterm relationship with my current GF, who was not found in a subway.

go up and ask her, "excuse me, do you know how much a polar bear weighs?" Then pause for a second, wait for her answer (probalby something like i don't know), then say "Enough to break the ice" and then introduce yourself. 60% of the time it works everytime.
I've heard a variation on that theme. Ask the bartender for an ice cube, then go to the girl and smash it on the counter. "Now that we've broken the ice, what's your name?"

These ones are just incredible.
You know, my mother always told me it was impolite to stare... so what do you say we dance?
The only thing your eyes haven't told me is your name.
I can't believe I've been here the entire evening with all these beautiful people and the moment I find 'The One', all I have time to say is "good bye".
I cracked up seriously on these ones.
Want to come see my HARD DRIVE? I promise it isn't 3.5 inches and it ain't floppy.
You make my software turn to hardware!
What do you say we go back to my room and do some math: Add a bed, subtract our clothes, divide your legs, and multiply.

"Hey, do you know what I like to do before breakfast?" "You jerk!" "What? You don't like showering?"

If you are the kind of person that can get away with it, tell her you can move her boobs with brainpower alone. Of course you can't. Yes I can wanna bet for a drink? If she agrees grab those puppies and give them a squeeze, and buy her a drink. You won. Now I don't have the cojones for this one but a completily shameless friend of mine who is a genius with the lady's does, and it works for him.
Find her boyfriend and beat the tar out of him.
