What's your approach?
How do you approach a stranger that you are interested in getting to know?
Do you give one good little subtle try then walk away and check it off as rejection?
Do you feel that in those first few seconds that you can determine whether or not anything will come of it or do you spy someone you have an attraction too, and give it your all thinking that if given a chance, you'll prove yourself a worthwhile new acquaintance?

Re: What's your approach?
Well, the thing with me is this: I have never talked to a girl I've been attracted to but don't know. I guess I'm too shy, I feel like I have nothing interesting to say, just walking up to her and talking will sound plain stupid, she will most likely not even answer back or give me one of those "I am SO over your league" looks. And I envy people who are not "afraid" to do that, that just walk up to a woman and talk not being afraid about how she'll react or if they'll be rejected.
Well, so much for my contribution to this thread!!! Sorry Chaz!

Re: What's your approach?
Hmm, well, only one time in my life, really, did I have to approach someone I wanted to get to know. My hubby. He moved in next door to me, but was very shy whenever he'd see me and I was interested...so I took the first steps...borrowed a cup of sugar...washed my car in my string bikini....left my blinds open at night....heh heh..it worked, he never knew what hit him!

Re: What's your approach?
I don't have one either. But then again, I never approach another woman, I'm just to shy and that rejection thing really sucks.

Re: What's your approach?
I tihnk you can definately tell within the first few seconds of meeting someone if they are physically attrated to you (and some of this depends on the person but assuming we are meeting in a social place they must be social)
I think its all in the eye contact. Give a glance, recieve a glance. Make eye contact if she doesnt look away i walk over.

Re: What's your approach?
If I thought/felt they'd be worth my time, I'd be persistant (in a good way, of course).

Re: What's your approach?
It's been my experience to scope them out a bit first. You never know what they are involved in. A case in point... A bartender friend of mine, I worked at years ago, went out with this girl he met there one night. They hit it off almost immediately, and had sex on the first date. Turns out she was involved with a body builder on steroids and a short temper. He showed up early one morning, to beat the crap out of him. He chased him out the back door of the bar, and I saw my friend run past the front of the building, not once, not twice, but three times, with the other guy catching up on him with each pass. It was hysterical to say the least. I never did see him show up for work for the next week or so...

Re: What's your approach?
in my experience, theres nothing wrong in aproaching someone you fancy and asking them if they fancy a coffee, or a drink. the worst that can happen is that they say no. and afterall as a guy we get kinda used to the whole rejection thing, so it doesnt matter anyway.

and I dont really know.. i'm actually a quiet kinda guy and not a big people person meaning little in the way of social skills... amazingly the hand full of people I've felt I "needed" to know just sort of ended up coming to me. must be the irish luck thing again.

Re: What's your approach?
What do you have to lose with a smile and a hello? Then take it from there, as they say... "You had me at Hello".

Re: What's your approach?
I usually attract people, so I don't have to use "lines". Little smiles at them, maybe an introduction if I'm very interested but rarely do I need to approach anybody...guess they just take pity on me

Locking my shoes in his car when he met me was a good one. It kept me there so we could get to know each other better.
