What kind of a guy would you like to be picked up by?

im would like him to say excuse ms. how are you doing well my name is so and so and how are you doing and he can like start a little conversation then gimme his phone number so basically talking to me with manners and respect

I want a guy to be genuine, himself, have nice breath, smell good, and have a catchy personality. If he is so taken with me that he has to approach me, I think that is sweet and a conversation starter in itself. No fakeness or lines because you will get shot down.

If you're trying to pick up girls, then it really depends because some girls are attracted to some qualities, while others aren't. Everyone's different.

But as for me, I'm a BIG sucker for really nice and friendly guys. I LOVE it when guys help me out on stuff I don't get or when they smile and are always optimistic.
If I've just met the person, then I'd prefer if they didn't flirt until we were a bit closer friends. He should smell nice.just a slight waft of aftershave or something. NO COLOGNE PLZ! GAH! I hate HATE HATE it when guys DROWN themselves in cologne! UGH.the smell gives me a headache and also gives me the impression that they are not comfortable with themselves and rely on cologne as a love potion or something. Hope that helped.tho I know it probably wasn't descriptive enough. Adjectives are just not my specialty :P

I met a wonderful guy yesterday at the airport, in a pub. I walked in carrying lots of hand luggage and looking for a place to sit. I looked up and this guy walked up to me and said, "Here, can I help you with that? You are way too overloaded!". I smiled and sat beside him. We ended up chatting very casually for about 2 hours about our careers, our iPods! and our dreams.When he had to board he gave me his card and simply said, "I have so enjoyed chatting to you. Please call me if you ever come to my city".

. I think the main vibe here is that one needs to be natural, carefree and don't appear to be 'trying to pick me up!':) A turn off is a guy who is too obviously trying to get laid, or a guy who stares at me or buys me too many coffees!

A guy that is true to himself.

Just be overall friendly and nice. Making me feel comfortable and not threatened is the key. Cracking a couple jokes to ease the awkwardness always helps. I think the biggest mistake is asking, "Do you live around here?" or "Where do you live?" Personally that really creeps me out. Now asking if I'm from the city/country is fine and vague enough to keep me comfortable. I think really personal questions (besides a phone number/email) right off the bat just makes me feel uneasy. And there's nothing wrong with opening a door for a lady. ;)
