Do ladies like being approached on the street?

Well its ok to approach a girl on the street as long as you don't follow her everywhere. Some guys use those pathetic pick-up lines to lure her in. Never works boys!

Hmm creepy and too pushy? Lets see, don't use stupid words and don't say you look sexy. We all know you want her in bed. That's just stupid! Just be yourself, no need to be an idiot.

Yeah I think every girl would like a guy to come up to her on the street, no matter how much they might try to deny it. But it depends on how you approach her. If you have a smirk as opposed to a smile you might come across as sleazy, and you shouldn't be over-confident or too much to the point of getting the girl's number or she will be put off, thinking you do this to every girl. What to do is approach her in a nice modest way, and pay her a (genuine) comment, without seeming as though you're expecting something in return. Start a conversation about something random like the weather, and although she might not seem keen I think you will have caught her attention. The best way to be is truthful, stating your insecurities lets a girl put her guard down. Like, admitting that you are nervous. That is always a cute thing in a guy lol

Now playing the field is kind of rude so don't go talking and flirting it up with every pretty face you see but on the rare chance that something just strikes your eye you defiantly should.

Style is most important, don't just say "hey babe what's your number" this is a creep move. You have to show her that you don't do this every day but for some reason today you are and you want to get to know her. If she's looking back at you with a shy smile then you know she's giving you the OK. Go in slow. This is good for all things. Say something that fits the situation, " I recommend the. " or "My favorite is the. But you look more like the. " fill in the blanks with a drink, movie, book, or whatever it is your looking at. If it's on the street then recommend the place your going to or point out a car that you like. DO NOT just come onto her, start a conversation.

When you go to exchange numbers, make sure it's after a good short conversation and your about to depart each other. Say something witty and relevant like " Can I get your number in case I find a better movie to recommend. " Or "You know I'd love to take you to that place can I get your number? " The best thing to do though is to give her your number. She'll call you if she didn't mind your approach and she won't if she was creped out by it.

Also, take advice from movies like "the notebook" in which the guy approaches the girl on the street to score the date.

I agree with the guy, it depends on the girl. I myself have been approached that way and sometimes it was flattering other times it was creepy. On the one time it was flattering, I was having a bad day and ended up having to walk home. On the way this guy flew past as I was about to cross the street. Seeing as I thought I was toast I ran to the other side, and when I got there he had reversed & said "sorry cutie, I didn't see you there" he seemed to be genuine and the way he said cutie sounded just right, so I took the compliment, said thank you and kept moving. He keep talking saying how I shouldn't frown and that he can make me smile if I gave him my number, eventually I did and we went on a few dates. It worked for him, but then again all girls are different.

Hm, I'd have to say NO to this one. In this day and age it's just something that creeps us out a little - which is ridiculous, considering we accept it say in a bar or at a party and if the guy's a creep it won't matter where you are - but still, I don't think you'd have a lot of good reactions approaching a girl on the street. Maybe at a bus stop or a store.

You just don't do it. If you've never met her before or seen her before just leave her alone. Any way you slice it, she's going to be creeped out. Didn't your mother teach you not to talk to strangers?

Women are like snowflakes, no two are alike. Some may like it, others may run clutching their purse while screaming for the police.

I think what freaks out most women is that you asked whether they like to be "approached" which tends to imply you want something out of the chance encounter.

Many women enjoy being complimented so if you are walking down the street and see a woman with a beautiful smile, beautiful hat, scarf, etc. Then why not compliment her on it but leave it at that.

If she is receptive when she will initiative a conversation. If she smiles and thanks you but continues walking then let it be. It is a fine line between being charming and stalking in this day and age. :)
