GuyNamedBob Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Hey everyone, I'm going to a party next week, and I probably wont know anyone there other than the friend I'm going with (he isn't likely to know many either) and maybe some people I lost contact with years ago. How do YOU approach girls? An opening line, something to follow...anything Thanks. Link to comment
Stambler Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 This one usually works for me.. "Excuse me, but I seem to have misplaced my Congressional Medal of Honor..." Link to comment
GuyNamedBob Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 I cant see myself saying that Partly because im not American and also no one in the UK would know what it is Link to comment
Stambler Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Oh, you aren't a jokester like I am? Sorry... Try something like: "So are you a friend of [person hosting party]" or "DO you know where I can get some ice for my drink?" (if she likes you she'll take you there!) or "Do you work [wherever you work], I thought I had seen you there..." Link to comment

Lionel Hutz Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 "Hey" "Having fun?" "This guy is good" (I listening to live music) "I like your shoes...... Where did you get those" (If girl is wearin tennis shoes) "I like your hair" "I like your shirt" "I saw you last week right?" "Did you see that" (strange person walks by) "What are you drinking."

Lana0120 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 LOL Lionel Hutz. Not cheesy, not ambitious and very effective. Praise works well. Link to comment
Lionel Hutz Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Never invest too much initially is my belief. If they like you then go for it, if not the disappointment is no biggie. Sometimes if you show a fraction of interest they want to pick YOUR brain. Link to comment

I was speaking to a few friends today and they made the same point; that its a party and there are LOADS more people to talk to. Thanks Link to comment
suttajasekundaa Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I don't approach them, since I figured that women hate engineers until they turn 35. Link to comment
MD Geist Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I approach them as I would with anyone in life. With confidence. Link to comment
desert_rose26 Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 make sure you don't seem cocky...or over confident...the best is friendly.. Link to comment
cpc28655 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Tell her that she has something in her teeth and then just walk away. You now have her attention. Link to comment
CaptainPlanet Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Hey everyone, I'm going to a party next week, and I probably wont know anyone there other than the friend I'm going with (he isn't likely to know many either) and maybe some people I lost contact with years ago. How do YOU approach girls? An opening line, something to follow...anything Thanks. I usually say something totally over the top and lame like ' how are you lovely young ladies doing in a place like this ' then one of them will laugh and the others will look at me funny. Then I return to talk to one of the others, then leave, then return and keep doing that.. till the on that laughed talks at me, then it is on. Link to comment
GuyNamedBob Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hey all, it's been a while since i checked up on this thread. Thanks for all your tips. I recently came back from my holiday. I spoke to plenty of girls, but none of which I had any interest in. I did approach a few who I liked...They weren't around for long though (but not cause of me It was probably obvious that I was a bit nervous. Link to comment
Superfreak Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 If she's a stranger, it's usually either with a question or if I'm lucky enough to think of something on the spot, a witty comment that relates to her or the current situation. Link to comment
Manic1002 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 *Flick yourself in their direction* "Do you want a stick of gum?" Haha if she takes one then just start talking to her about the situation your in, wether it be a party, business meeting, club or something. Link to comment
cpc28655 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 I don't. But if I did, the direct approach would probably be the best. Link to comment
mr_iwi Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Unless you try in particular to avoid smokers, always carry a cigarette lighter on you. It's always easier to talk when people approach you first. Her: "Do you have a light please?" You: "Only if you tell me your name first Nicotine will make her say hello. Link to comment
Rovas Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 In college for engineering and I play World of Warcraft =( I did meet my (ex) girlfriend of 3 years through conversations of Halo and gaming. She didn't look like it, but she was actually a nerd who liked to play them with me though. Link to comment
Breaker Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Hey everyone, I'm going to a party next week, and I probably wont know anyone there other than the friend I'm going with (he isn't likely to know many either) and maybe some people I lost contact with years ago. How do YOU approach girls? An opening line, something to follow...anything Thanks. Wait until they play some Bruce Springsteen, preferably 'secret garden'. Then go up to a chick of your choice and say.... you - "hi" her - "hello" then while she gazing deep into your hazel brown eyes... drop this line on her. you - "you had me at hello." She'll most likely have an instant mind-gasm. You'll probably be banging her against your friend's bedroom wall in about 10 minutes. If this doesn't work then I don't know what will.... Who could resist the mythical, sensual music of Bruce Springsteen? Link to comment
monkey123 Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 i ask what they r drinking, then i ask if i can try it, then i chug the whole thing and crush a beer can over my head and walk away Link to comment
John Streo Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I don't "approach" women. It implies that I'm chasing after something that is moving away from me. I simply notice the environment we both are in and point out something that we both can perceive at the same time. If it is interesting to her, then she has the option to contribute to the conversation and then it's go time from there. Lately I've been chatting it up with anybody (male or female). I was in line at Borders a few hours ago and there was this rather attractive woman waiting in line with me. I was looking at all of the impulse items and started laughing a little too loud, which made her look at me weird. I just turned to her and the next thing I know, I blurted out, "All these last minute buys are making me dizzy". To my surprise she agreed and took an item from one of the racks and said, "Who would buy this stuff?". End of conversation because the next register was open and she had to buy her stuff. Didn't lead to anything, but it didn't matter, I am presenting who I am and being sincere about it. I could have said something else to start a conversation the way many guys "approaching" a woman will normally do, but I didn't, because it just isn't me. Instead, I offered her an observation with an invitation to take the conversation somewhere. She didn't take the bait, so things didn't go anywhere from there. The thing that surprised me today was that I've got this thing on auto pilot now...I didn't even think about it. I'm a formerly shy guy I suppose. Link to comment
DayInDayOut Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 i ask what they r drinking, then i ask if i can try it, then i chug the whole thing and crush a beer can over my head and walk away hahahaha. that's awesome. i love it. Link to comment
emalkoc Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 "Hey" "Having fun?" "This guy is good" (I listening to live music) "I like your shoes......

"Did you see that" (strange person walks by) "What are you drinking." mate except the last one, do you really pickup woman with those lines You would never compliment a woman's apperance at first notice. And girls hate "having fun" comment...my experience. if I am in a party barely know people, I go and I introduce myself and I start making jokes about drinks. It works 90% of time. if you wanna meet someone you like especially, "Hi I am ....., may I get you more drink, what are you drinking?" take charge and be gentleman Link to comment
