But seriously, saying hi can't ever hurt, ESPECIALLY if she's smiling at you, because you're likely going to get at least a 'hi' in return, and possibly more. However, some girls give the smile to show they're somewhat interested, and leave it up to you to start a conversation. 'Hi' may not be enough.

Don't say 'Hi, how are you,' because you're wasting two responses with one comment. Say 'hi', let her respond, and look at her for something nice to say about her. Then say 'how are you', let her respond, and if she doesn't give you something to work with, throw the compliment, 'wow, your hair is beautiful'. (even if she has a nice body, don't EVER make that an early compliment...stick to hair, eyes, something else).

If she giggles, laugh back and take it from there. Don't blow it, because the ball's in your court and it may be 100% up to you to keep the conversation going, and you never know what stop she's going to get off the train. Throw in something about school or work, the music she's listening to, the coffee shop you two should jump off the train to hit, etc.

Something will give, if not for the sole reason that you have the social personality to entertain her with conversation.

Go into these things thinking most women are sweet and kind, and just laugh it off if they blow you off.
I'm with you on this, except the compliment part. Every guy who meets her immediately proceeds to compliment something. I prefer to be the one guy who doesn't. Seriously, why am i gonna flatter this girl? To win her affection? Do i even want her affection? And yea, the success rate isn't nearly as bad as 'maaa' made it out to be I don't think i've ever gotten shot down by a girl who was smiling at me. I mean come on, she's smiling for a REASON!

the beauty of being a guy

but yeah, i dont think that 99% is a realistic number either... I mean, i dont think theres that many bitches out there, tho there is alot haha...

i think that if ur nice n decent, theyll talk to you n stuff, if anyhting just to be nice n return, and then, who knows...

from my experiences, with girls in public, always be a gentlemen, and you definately wont be ignored 99% or the time

Posted by starsearcher on Jul-06-2004 15:01:

Posted by High on PSI on Jul-06-2004 15:01:

starsearcher beat me to it LOL


Posted by High on PSI on Jul-06-2004 15:02:

all that beach sex is gettin to his head :P jks


Posted by DigitalMP on Jul-06-2004 15:03:

yeah, but it's the giving her a compliment just for the sake of doing so. but wow...if a girl has beautiful hair, or eyes that really catch mine, then i'm sure as hell going to tell her.

i've walked by girls and said just that, and continued on my way, without going further.

if something's on my mind, you had better believe i'm going to say it.


Posted by starsearcher on Jul-06-2004 15:09:

Well honestly guys i'm not exagerating at all that girl was just drop dead gorgeous...stunning...i almod died... I wish it wasn't a subway full of people...and I mean FULL of people...I always think I'll look like a moron in a situation like that...maybe if there weren't so many people around I guess I'm just shy maybe...



Yeah the beach sex is definitely going to his head


Posted by Creamfields on Jul-06-2004 15:25:

Well do u always take this subway at the same time??? You might see her again. When you do, smile at her and work from there.

Posted by tha_broad on Jul-06-2004 15:29:

No no no...no stalker syndrome I'm not that crazy lol...I just honestly think she's the most beatiful girl that's all ...for all I know she can be a crazy bitch but she didn't seem like it

Here's a little tip a friend once told me. You know how you freeze and your head goes blank when you see that perfect girl? Well, you need practice my friend. The best places to practice are bars or clubs. I don't recommend picking up at clubs but you can sure as hell practice. Firstly, at clubs girls are always dressed nice so you feel more comfortable about throwing out compliments and they are more willing to accept them. Second, everyone�s usually in a good mood so you're less likely to get brushed off unless you have desperate loser written all over your face. Third, don't stick with one girl for too long, unless she's really cool and you like her. Keep moving on and have friendly chats with more girls while throwing in compliments etc. and watch their reactions. This way you can learn to tailor your responses on the fly and have smoother conversations in the future. Now you can apply this to your day-to-day life and you'll be less likely to freeze when that perfect girl comes along.

Honestly, if some guy came up to me on the subway and was clearly hitting on me,I'd probably ignore him.

however, if I thought he was sweet and honest and HOT, then I'd probably smile and entertain him for as long as I could before we had to go our separate ways.

So what I'm saying is, chances are you will get the brush off if you approach someone like that. But there's a small chance she might respond. You never know - but be willing to get brushed off 99% of the time. Women are very defensive in this city - and for good reason.


I'm with you Skipper. If the compliment is sweet and not creepy who doesn't want to be told they are beautiful.

As for your comment on being out of her league, starsearcher..how can you say that when you don't know her and don't know what her league or type is. What is the worst she can do? Ignore you or tell you to back off. Passing up an opportunity that might go the way you want it is far worse than a dirtly look from an absolute stranger. I say follow Firerstarter's advise and just say hi.

Also, people tend to assume that really good looking people get so many compliments in their life that they just brush off compliments or anyone who is not supermodel gorgeous. however, I bet many of these beautiful people don't get alot of people approaching them because everyone thinks they aren't good enough for them.

I say next time you see her you atleast say hi or give her a sweet compliment. You don't need to do it hovering over her or standing too close...just a casual comment in your passing. You should be able to read from her body language whether or not she is interested in starting up a conversation.

Good luck.

aaahhhh finally a good advice from a girl Looks like I can always rely on angelgirl well if I ever run into her again I'll be sure to make some kind of contact/communication

And it's also true what you said about the good looking girls brushing people off...I have to admit that I've met quite a few girls that on paper seem bitchy and too good for anyone but turned out to be really sweet, friendly and intelligent. It was definitely bad judgement on my part and on part of others who suggested to me they are stuck up. Even at the boat cruise with Armin - that girl in Burberry was gorgeous -- and she most definitely turned out to be a sweetie and really friendly thanks angelgirl

Maybe I was right when i said that 99% of the women in the city suck then cause according to Skipper they actually do...


OK, call me a bitch, tell me I suck, but when a strange guy comes up to me on the subway and throws compliments my way they come off like a cheesey line most of the time. it's not often that within 5 minutes of meeting someone I feel like I can trust them enough to a/ be genuine and b/ give them my number.

I appreciate men who can be sincere about it, but in situations like these it's easy to throw the girl off guard which can make her feel defensive, even if your intentions are honest.

Go for it, but don't be surprised to be shot down.

Also, don't stare for too long. it makes us uncomfortable.


Posted by goodnet on Jul-06-2004 16:39:

I gotta agree with Tordan on practicing.

You gotta condition yourself to behave the right way for those unexpected times when that attractive female pops outta nowhere, or else your general chances of a good first impression (or even making the approach at all) gets lower.

Well sure but that's not what i said...i've seen a smile and she was right in front of me...and I wasn't planning on using a pick up line those never work I think everyone knows that (and yet so many ppl still using them ) Anyways...yeah - be nice! hehehe...
I never look like a creepy guy - I think if you've met me you'd know it


Posted by TheVrk on Jul-06-2004 16:50:

hahahaha,
dont worry bro, if she's the one for u,
she'll pop up someday again


Posted by Matt on Jul-06-2004 16:55:

when that happens just whip out the record bag and start going thru your records right on the subway

she'll be so impressed.


Posted by StereoPrincess on Jul-06-2004 16:58:

did you at least smile at her and make eye contact or did you stare blankly into the air when she looked at you?
