Eight Ways to Approach a Woman

Roger C.
Approaching an attractive woman can be terrifying for many men because of the fear of rejection or ridicule from our peers. Fortunately for us, there are ways to approach a woman without being rejected, so keep in mind these tips next time you go out.

Be confident. Please do not try to grab a woman's attention by being the clown of your group, because you'll look like a dork and women around will notice that you have to make jokes to get a girl's attention. That's just lame.

Be original. Forget the "can I buy you a drink?" line. Women are tired of this approach, and it tells her: "I need to buy you something to have the privilege of talking to you". That is a major turn-off; you have to be alpha and worthy of having a woman without having to buy her. Instead make up something funny and unique. Look into her eyes for a few seconds and then stick your tongue at her, I know this sound crazy but is very original, and shows her that you have a sense of humor, besides you won't need an opener phrase with this.

Don't be a jerk. Avoid dirty phrases and sexual insinuations in the approach because the most action you could get with it is a slap in your face.

Be sexy. Look at your prey straight in the eyes, smile, use subtle hand gestures and touch her arm gently once in a while. Don't lean in too much at first; let her try to reach you and when you know she's attracted you can "reward" her with your attention. At this point lean in to whisper to her ear and she'll go crazy.

Don't try to impress her. This is somewhat counter intuitive, but trying to impress a woman with your knowledge, money or skills is very unattractive. Instead be mysterious and don't brag about anything. When she asks you about your job or something, answer something crazy like you are a pencil sharpener repair man or something; they'll have a laugh and become even more curious.

Have balls. When you spend the entire night watching a woman without approaching you'll come up as creepy. You have to approach women a few seconds after initiating eye contact.

Pretending to be somebody else is not cool. Women will notice instantly if you pretend to be someone you are not. You can be a more attractive and confident version of yourself, but don't walk like Elvis to look sexy.

Finally, this is obvious but don't get drunk before approaching! A couple of drinks can help you to relax but getting drunk in no way improves your game; you'll see yourself as a Casanova, but all you'll be doing is embarrassing yourself.
