I’m always out and about and see cute girls while running errands. I really have no reason to talk to them and would have to walk out of my way to approach them. I don’t want to be creepy and put them on the spot but I also want to let them know I am interested in them. I’m also a decent looking guy in decent shape, women usually listen when I talk and will give me a chance. I want to approach more girls I just don’t know what to say except “hey I saw you and think your cute… can I get your number?” It seems so cringe but that seems to be what every other guy is doing these days. So is that decent enough to use? Is it cringe? What’s better? How would YOU like to be approached by a guy who you find attractive?
Girls, What’s the best way to approach a girl?
What Girls Said
"I want to approach more girls..."
That sentence alone puts you in the creepy section because you seem not to be satisfied with just one girl but you actually want a whole harem. You also state that you have no reasons to talk to them and therefore, I suggest you keep it that way.
What is your prime reason to want so many numbers? Are you trying to make a collection? You know, the way you phrase your entire question and the way you intend to address all those girls puts you on my list of players. This is a total red flag to any girl. No girl likes to be just a number on a guy's trophy list or just another body count.
You seem to want to approach all those girls for the sole purpose to want to get into their pants.
It is no secret that a total stranger approaching a girl has indeed very clear intentions with her.
You make it sound like approaching girls I find attractive is a bad thing. Which it is not. In fact I would argue I frustrate girls because they give me signs of interest and I don’t know what to do about it or how to interact with it. You also didn’t even answer the question but rather decided to take a left turn and start accusing me of ill intent and being a player. All because I want to work on my social and flirting skills. And yes I want to flirt more, and do it better, do you think there is something evil about that? Apparently. So once again, what is the best way to approach a girl? If you don’t want to answer that question then please don’t respond further
Well, I absolutely abhor when guys approach me because I am very well aware why they approach girls in the first place and yes, I find it cringe when they approach because of that fact.
If you really want to approach girls, then state what your ultimate intentions are when you approach them so that they are aware of them. Don't mislead them by saying that you "just" want to be friends with them. The second you ask for their numbers is the second we know that your ultimate goal is to get into our pants and that is why I personally absolutely dislike it.
But if you let the girls know that is what you are looking for, then at least they know how to behave.
I’m okay with being their friend also. It doesn’t have to be sexual. I mean sure I want to approach the ones I’m attracted to but if we don’t click then we don’t click. There’s no way to know compatibility without first getting to meet and know them better. So I was just curious what a good approach would be to get to know a girl better. I think it’s cringe when guys just go straight up to girls and say “hey I thought you were cute” etc. but it sounds like you are actually endorsing more of a direct sexual interest approach
The problem is that girls get approached hundreds of times by guys and we know what would happen if we just are not selective.
To me the game is over when in the first minutes the guy asks for the number. That to me indicates that he want more than just being friends. If you want to be platonic friends, then you don't need her number for that. It is enough if you meet casually once or twice a month.
The same goes with flirting. The end result is the same.
If you want to approach a girl, then don't start giving her compliments because most of the time, they are fake and just mean to try to soften her.
So then what do you actually recommend? That’s the question here.
Imagine it’s a guy YOU find attractive. You see him and wish he would come talk to you… what would you want him to say?
For anyone else but me, approach her directly and openly and tell her your ultimate intentions. Don't just say "let's be platonic friends only" if you know deep inside yourself that you want ultimately to get into her pants at a later date. Be honest with her and tell her the truth. That should not really be that difficult, right?
Why lead someone on to make her believe that you just want one thing when you know that you want something else?
Approach women in situations where they are expecting to get approached or after you’ve known them for a while. The grocery store and gym is not a good place. The bar or your local tennis club is.
