Girls, what are some good conversation starters?

i personally don't like it when guys just come up and ask for my number or anything of the sort right away. so none of that "how you doin" stuff.

well first of all it depends where you are.so as an example fo waiting for a bus:

anything that shows interest really, the fact that he approached me is enough, a simple "hi" is fine too but then it's awkward so that should be followed by something like asking for advice because then it doesn't seem like you just came to hit on the girl, so something like "i noticed your cell phone is an mp3 player and I myself was considering to get one could you tell me some of the good and bad stuff about it?" so that way it can be more than a yes or no answer and can extend to personal opinion, so whatever she says you can reply a "oh I don't like that" or w/e.and can lead to techincally getting to know one another. you can use those links to to lead to other pesonal preferences and sublty leak out info about yourself so like for example if you say about this lame cell phone example something about the colour selection as well, and therefore let her know what your favorite colour is and can ask what her's is. eventually after having talked for a while you can introduce yourself and then you can talk about anythign really and hopefully get her email or w/e at the end.

as for being in a classroom for instance you can ask about the course material.

personally I would just wanna hear anything normal like stated above and then the next time to meet you can compliment and whatnot, (I just think compliments the first time are just another pick up line)

i don't mind when any random people start to talk to me, it might seem awkward at first but w/e, I would answer back.it's more of what I wouldn't want to hear and like stated above basically anything cheesy of a pickup line.

in my opinion the best way to actually get a good impression on me I would like to see that he's a nice guy, so for instance if I'm in the library he would ask me what I'm looking for and to help me find the book, anything that would help me in some way, (and of course I would say no thanks) but he should tell me how little of trouble it would be for him rather than insisting and seeming clingy.

it's really not hard, but my question is what about guys? What do guys want to hear from a girl that approaches them? now that's the hard one lol

Just a simple "Hi"

Maybe a compliment if it's not in a school-type setting

If a guy wasn't one of my close guy friends and he just came up to me and started talking to me, I'd be a little weirded out (maybe it's because I'm shy and don't talk to guys, I really don't know). I'd prefer if they had a question about homework or something, even if they already know the answer. Just something to start off with kinda.

Anything really, just make sure you're sincere when you're talking to her. Ask her some questions about herself, get to know her. Girls love talking about themselves! If you're in school, I always talk to guys about teachers, or upcoming projects. Movies are always a popular topic as well, along with music. And if you think you're safe talking politics, the election is coming up, and it's a good way to show her that you're interested, and smart. Hope I helped!

I would like it if a guy approach me and say things like. "hello" or just how are you doing. Baby

I just like to be able to be myself. Are girls into that?
