Girls - how do you feel when a random guy approaches you?

[Anonymous]

I am trying to become more outgoing and open my options up when it comes to women, I'm in high school so I'm not really interested in approaching girls I go to school with because there aren't really any new ones to talk to. But say I saw a cute girl at a track meet (I'm in track so its not like I creep) and wanted to get her number so I just introduced myself and chatted. As a girl would you be creeped out? Like I'm trying to meet more people but I don't want to bother people either?

When a random guy approaches me I feel annoyed that he felt his attraction was important enough to bother me and interrupt and intrude on my life because despite the fact he bothered me because he found me attractive he'll be butthurt if I reject him if I don't find him attractive and I'll be the shallow one.

I only feel creeped out if he's nervous, quiet (why approach if there's going to be lots of silence/), stares a lot, smiles a lot, shy, or socially awkward.

DUMB!

No what's dumb is how guys get upset if you reject them for not being attractive to you when they approach you because they found attractive.

I think that's awesome you introduced yourself :) Next track meet go find her again and talk to her till your event comes up and say "Wish me luck" and smile. You know flirt a little! I seriously doubt she'd be creeped out by you. And if you want the girls number then go in smooth and say "We go run together sometime" Haha cheesy I know but give it a shot! Good luck :]

It depends on the circumstances and your vibes/behavior. If I'm not doing anything that would signify I'm busy and you're just being casually friendly, I'd love it. If I pick up that you have some sort of "intentions" before I've even had a chance to decide if I'm interested, then I'm gonna be annoyed. It's all about the casual/friendly. Just make sure you're not interrupting any conversations or warm ups or whatever and go for it.

maybe don't just walk up and say, "hi I'm brady," maybe kind of just go and say something like, "so what's your event?" and go from there. but in my opinion, I myself included, like when a guyd approaches. it shows confidence and helps the girl out lol

Honestly, I love when they do. It lets me know they're confident & brave. It's also nice to know that they thought I was attractive or interesting enough to approach. It makes me feel special, as long as they do it casually & aren't all over-bearing about it.

I've never been approached by a random guy before. If it ever happened I'd be polite and talk to him, and hey, maybe even make a new friend.

Do it whether you think she likes it or not. If she doesn't, end conversation and move on. If she does, then keep going. "Creep" just means she didn't find the guy attractive, just ignore the "creep" idea.

i think it's nice being approached by a random guy--in a friendly manner, of course :)

I think it's cute, as long as you do it tastefully.
