Back on the market

Well, me and the gf broke up, so I'm officially back on the market. I wanna take some time in between relationships cause this one stings, but I do think it's for the best.

Anyway, today I was eating at Arby's and I saw a girl who was pretty cute in there who I had noticed watching me do a billboard earlier. (board was right outside of Arby's). Anyway it got me thinking...I really don't know how to start conversations with random girls. I've just never needed it. I always end up dating someone from work, school, etc... Don't get me wrong, I have been known to have up to 6 club chicks asking to go back to my place in one night, but thats just not my style. I'm not a big fan of easy girls. I like good girls. It's just weird that I'm only realizing this now. Like I said, I just never needed to so I never had the practice.

So I guess the question is to ladies...How could I start a conversation with a good girl without coming off as a total sleeze just trying to get in her pants.

and to the fellas, what's worked for you? Remember...good girls. Anybody can pick up a slut.

Just be real with them...say hello or whatever...make them laugh. "Good girls" tend to know when guys are just sweet talking them so if you're polite and such it's usually much better.

Interestingly enough, a girl just called me while I was making this post...telling me how her n her bf just broke up. Haven't talked to her in monthsss...easy

Um, I'll revisit this later when I'm in a better state of mind.


PS ladies I'm single too EDIt - duhhhhhhh

One easy way is to tease them but in a funny way. Observe what they are doing. Some examples are, if she she keeps on dropping something, she has a new hair do or something, she has a stained shirt, she's wearing some ridiculous shirt or jewelry or perfume, etc. This is what has worked for me ....and yes I'm talking about "good girls." Making fun is a very easy gateway to get you into a conversation.
Another way is eye contact, when you saw this girl staring @ you outside, you should have made eye contact with her and stuck out your tongue @ her like how a little kid would and smiled. Being playful, fun, funny, and confident will get you in there. good luck buddy!

90% of it is confidence. Master this and you can get ANY girl. For some reason, women can smell nervousness, etc etc like bees can supposedly "smell" fear.

I just walk up to them, ask them, how are you doing? My name is Mike...whats yours? Then go on from there, that seems to work the best. And whatever you do please dont use any pickup lines.

I never really mastered that. Thankfully God gave us the ability to invent alcohol.

Just be yourself and let things flow naturally. It's when you try to plan what you're going to do or say that you'll prob feel and look really awkward and uncomfortable.

I guess if you want good girls you actually have to get to know them and be friends first. So pretend it's a 70 year old woman youre talking to at first just so you don't come off like you're trying to bang right away. Or pretend she's a co-worker and therefore have to keep it light and cannot be sleazy right away.

I'm a pretty good girl, and the best try is not to act like you're trying at all.

Whatever you do, please dont plan what your going to say to a girl. Just walk up to her with confidence and talk to her about whatever, you would be surprised how much more effective this method works. Ask her about stuff shes interested in, school/hobbies and find something to make conversation out of that using your own experiences.

Dont sweat it!!

Easy approach is to go up to a girl you like and say hi, how are you and then compliment her on something she wears or if she is holding a magazine or book say oh yeah i read that it was pretty funny. But, don't tell her you read that book if she is holding a totally girly book though, she might think you're cute, but wondering why a guy would read that book.

Good advice. I can see it now:

Him: I read that book. It's pretty funny.
Her: This is Angela's Ashes.
Him: Yeah, I saw the movie too - really funny.
Her: It's about death, alcoholism, and the struggle to survive in horrid conditions.
Him: Um... I like you're shirt.
Her: You're a jackass.

Walk up to her and ask "Do you know how much a polar bear weighs?" she will look surprised and say "uhh, no?" then you reply "enough to break the ice...." And go from there, it should be enough to get a chuckle out of her and then talk to her.

Or

You can just walk up to her and say "how are you?"

It's not what you say, it's how you say it and how you present yourself.

Hilarious dude! Although I would walk away from her or say something else if she had Angela's Ashes.

Correct.

If a girl thinks you are hot, charismatic and/or have money, almost anything will work...even just dropping a cliche shitty line like "I lost my phone number, can I have your's?"

If a girls thinks you are ugly, inept and/or have no money, almost nothing will work.

Just like Young MC said when I heard this song when I was a kid "You got no money, you got no car, you got no woman, and there you are".

If you got no money and no car, finding a woman should be the last thing on your list

I was at the bar this weekend observing a table of 3 ok looking girls with one cute girl. Now the cute girl was nothing special, just stuck out like a sore thumb (in a good way) since her friends were nothing special.

Well about 8 guys came up and talked to the cute one and all rolled out in less than 2 minutes. I don't know if she knew them or not, but either way when you're up against that kind of competition, you better bring your A game....or just hit on one of the uglies because I don't think "hey how are you" will make you stick out of the crowd....although it is a good line if there is minimal competition.

Another solution is say that you know famous people, wave money in their faces, or maybe you could use those phermones. Try the Axe effect and see where it leads!!

When a girl is with more than one of her girlfriends, your chances will drop significantly because even if she's interested she'll turn ya down just to look cool in front of her friends.

Or, you can just be yourself, approach with confidence and use a nice cologne instead of a cheap deodorant that smells like fish farts

Or you'll get turned down because she doesn't want to be rude to her friends, unless of course they are all just sluts out trying to get banged.

Then use the polar bear line unless they are really fucking stupid one of them will find it funny and you'll stand out. From my experience any girl you need a catchy line to start a conversation with probably isn't worth talking to anyways. If your looking for a serious gf, you shouldn't have to try anything crafty to talk to her, if your looking for any easy find an easy target. I have yet to meet a girl who is stuck up that is anything less then a complete basket case.
