Being Approached by Men?

    Hey all,

    I'm just posting here to get some advice, I am a guy and I don't know how to approach women I don't already know and I really need to know what women like and don't like.

    I am only asking, as I have very recently lost out with a girl who is perfect for me, but she doesn't have time for a relationship and I do understand that...

    But a part of me, is very heart broken as we get on so well, have the greatest conversations and just so much fun hanging out...

    The few times we have hung out and the nights we spent together were great, just waking up beside her the next morning and cuddling with her were actually the best things ever, and I do sincerely mean that...

    I have only realised how much I am missing and I'd really like to get back out there...

    As I typed this out, I actually started crying for some reason, how pathetic :o

    P.S If this thread somehow breaks the rules, I do apologize

    Better for you here busyliving

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Hey OP,

    Sounds like you’re going through a bad patch, to be honest with you man, every woman is different in terms of likes and dislikes, much like us dudes! I recommend youtube theres a lot of help on there, friend of mine was going through a similar problem! Give it a go!

    Approaching women!! When your our with your friends and if you see a girl that you totally know is giving you the eye, just go over and say hi, don’t pretend to be someone your not just be yourself! But I feel your at this level because you wanted the girl you were seeing but that cant happen, your hurting and that’s normal, take a bit time out and get yourself together and seriously think about cutting communication with said girl because that going to do you no good.

    There’s nothing pathetic about shedding a tear my man, it shows you have emotion and you feel!

    Be cool

    As female, when Im approached by men. I prefer men who introduce themselves and have a conversation with me rather than cheesy chat up lines!

    At least now you know what you want so you can go out and get it. Someone wonderful is out there for you :D

    There is no magic answer. What one woman may find attractive, another may find a complete turn off - there isn't any kind of hive-mind and so no blanket answer as to how best to be successful with women...despite any claims to the contrary. :D

    Your best bet is approaching women regularly for a friendly chat and practice/make a point of getting really good at reading their cues so you know when to back off and when you have her interested.

    All the best :cool:

    Awh! You sound lovely!! If a girl seems smiley, laid back, alone at a bar then just chat to her! I'll chat to anyone that approaches me if they aren't blatantly sleazy. I usually get spoken to about the song playing or a band t shirt I'm wearing or the bar service. I'm a sucker for a wink, it's pathetic, always works. Be friendly, be confident, be fun, don't have expectations except for to talk to her, generally girls don't like to be seen as for one thing only. Good luck! x
