Your methods of approaching the opposite sex

Sign in to disble this ad
Thought this would be an interesting thread.

Say if there is a good looking lady, what is your course of action? A simple hi? Comment on the weather? Cheesy pick up line?

Stand up straight and look them in the eye.
Smile and be nice.

What is the situation? Bar? Store? She's in your bed when you get home from work?

My best pick up line isn't actually a line: I used to carry around index cards. On it was written "Smile if you want to kiss me." I'd just walk up to a girl and give it to her.

Experience has shown me that if you're hot you could pee on a girls leg and still get a date.

If you're not... I guess I had the best luck when I was either drunk and found someone of the opposite sex as trashed as me, or when sober and used a simple "hello".

Related pick-up line:

"Excuse me, does this rag smell of chloroform to you?"

^^^This

If you're not....you gotta make the effort to meet as many women as possible to find out what your score ratio is. Marketing is key. Smell good. Be neat and clean. Once you know your score ratio, you just have to put in the time and don't worry about rejection.

Learn to read body language. Introduce yourself and find something to comment on...current topics, music, etc.

Be yourself and be confident. I only needed to do that once, BTW.

It depends on the type of girl. You have to be able to read which type you have.

Some girls like to believe they're in a romantic comedy while others like the disinterested guy.

Alcohol is the great leveler.

Be confident and be yourself. If they aren't interested, no big deal.
