+1 yWhat women want and what women like changes every five minutes, every day, all day long, for the first 35 to 40 years of their life.
Then, like a slot machine, the spinning wheels of chance stop, and whatever they stop on is the thing she really always wanted, and if she has that thing when the wheels stop spinning, she wins the game.
You can't use strategy or try to make predictions with women. It's randomly randomized randomness. There's no logic or rules that can give you an understanding or even a suggestion of what you should do.20 Reply

I think you're putting yourself at some disadvantage if you don't at least go for a brief conversation first since I could imagine scenarios where some girls where you might have been successful getting a date if you made a smoother transition to inviting her out (ex: following a conversation about nice places to go, then invite her, and she might entertain it given the pleasantness of the convo). If you go super direct, you might still succeed with some but I suspect you would have succeeded with those regardless.

Asker+1 yYou think it would be fine, if a girl catches my eye and I walk up to them, and introduce, and try having a conversation with them? I just have a hard time talking to a girl at my school who I don’t have class with, that’s the hard part for me. We aren’t in any classes together, so I wouldn’t have that in common with them.

Mmm yeah id think it’s flattering. But not every girl is the same you know. And that is kind of tricky. If i were you i’d legit go up to her, compliment whatever she’s wearing. And simply say “hey i think you’re really cute, id love to take you on a date and get to know you” trust me the right girl would love to hear that

It really depends how you bring it and how open she is.
Don't bring it as just 'hey can I get your number?' because I would react with a 'uhm why wtf no'. Also don't say things like 'you seem like a very interesting person', because you know nothing about her and sounds like bluffing.
Say something like 'I saw you walking and I thought you looked dashing and I really would like to get to know you better over a cup of coffee. Do you have some spare time?'
Ofcourse it's always better to talk about something in common first and start a conversation, because you have more reason to approach her. Most women (at least I don't) don't like to be judged only for our appearance so just asking someone out because of a simplistic image in your head is not attractive. It comes off as shallow. So the more reason you have to ask someone out, the better.12 Reply- +1 y
I think that depends on location. In a large city where you see many people who you don't know, I don't think it's wrong to approach a woman because she is attractive. Focusing only on that is a problem, but the first impression for both is always visual. Level of mutual attraction is important. If you get approached by someone who you feel no attraction to, you will be less willing to accept his attention. If you feel a spark based on how he sounds, his looks and body language, you will be much more likely to accept his attention. We have eyes and faces for a reason. It's genetics.
- +1 y
I am not saying that visual attraction is not important and we may base our first impressions on that, I agree, however I think many women already get a lot of sexual objectification on a regular basis from people that only want sex, that you have to differentiate yourself and prove you're not that type of guy.
I've had guys saying they loved me or wanted to be with me without actually knowing me and I find that very unattractive and shallow.
So yeah don't go too far. Just say you want to get to know someone.
+1 yI would at least say hi, and lead in with something that feels natural. Don't waste time trying to feel her out for hours. If she stops what she is doing to talk to you, smiles or at least gives you her attention, ask her out soon. No woman appreciates a guy that beats around the bush waiting for her to ask him to ask her out.

+1 yI voted straight to the point, but I do enjoy conversation first. It depends. If it's obvious he wants to ask me out and that's what's on his mind, I'd rather he just asked and not pretend he wants to talk about something else. But if the conversation just happens and he decides during it to ask me out, it means the conversation went well and it was enjoyable so that's fun too
30 ReplyYou need to be smart about it. Keep it subtle until you find the right moment to ask her out. Genuinely express your interest toward her through conversations, and give her time to get used to it.

- +1 y
Personally, I'd like it. It sounds genuine, something gentle like "Hey, I noticed you around *insert compliment here*, would you like to have coffee sometime?"
I kinda like that actually. Guys where I live are pretty passive and forever afraid of rejection so they date in a very "safe" manner. Kinda boring. I like guys who just go for what they want, even if they might be rejected.
42 ReplyI was thinking like straight to it butttt I'd still like at least a convo starter effort (small) doesn't have to be a full on convo but then just briefly mention the hangout much better then someone just randomly inviting u out & not knowing ANYTHING about them or them (till a couple sec. Ago)

+1 yWhen I imagine a good but impossible scenario where a guy who is exactly my type walks up to me and asks me out, I'd definitely say yes though I'd be nervous more than he probably. Maybe some chit chat is the best before he asks out of nowhere.
I personally think looks matter a lot in this case.10 ReplyHi. My name is ———and I hope I’m not bothering you, but it was wondering if I could take you out to dinner tomorrow?
So simple. Striking up a conversation just gives you more time to nervous and chicken out. I don’t mind it but I’ve likely made up my mind on whether or not I’ll give a man a chance by the time he asks.00 Reply
+1 ythere's nothing wrong with that as long as it fits into the flow of the conversation. if you are talking to her and things go south then dont ask for coffee. if y'all hit it off then go for it.

10 Reply
+1 yI think "straight to the point" implies sex and/or inexperience. Innocent flirting, that slowly leads somewhere, before going for it is more romantic and exciting. Plus, you get more of a feel of that person's character and personality before hand.

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yToo much , too soon. You have to ease your way into asking her out. Maybe make it as habit of having small talk with her for a few weeks then eventually ask her out. I am personally not fond of men who “get straight to the point”, because I am under the impression that they are very egotistical and that they do this with any woman they find attractive.
10 ReplyHere's what I'm thinking. If she agrees to a date we can have as many conversations as we want.
If she has a boyfriend or has no desire to give me her number. Then to me starting a conversation is just like playing games. It's a waste of time.
I personally am a very straight forward guy. To me I just think that it's good to be honest and get straight to the point. Save us both some time if there's nothing there.00 ReplyI perfer straight to the point that way we dont waste each other time.

+1 yI feel like we would need to have a little convo at first so I could get an idea of that person is like and he could get an idea of what I’m like; and if there’s chemistry, then I would take the offer. If I get any weird vibes from that person then no I wouldn’t go out with them... and some girls may be a little shy/nervous/intimated at first so not all girls will accept.
00 ReplyI think it depends on the person rather than the gender of the person, I've been straight to the point on many first impressions and over 70% of the time of day it ended up with good results, I've ended up either dating these women or gone on to something more! But I got mates who are guys who will wait what seems like forever to me to even build up the courage to ask a girl out even after knowing them for so long, whichever way works for you is the best!

The average one with self-respect/standards would prefer to get to know you - so that means something of a conversation - before getting straight to the point.
