quankanne Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 start with a simple, friendly "hi." You're not expected to talk rocket science or impress her, but you can't go wrong being friendly. sincere, but simple, compliments also are good icebreakers, but to be honest, I've yet to see a guy go up to someone and remark on the nice outfit that person is wearing, unlike women, who can bond with a perfect stranger in a public restroom! good luck!

moimeme Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 Figure out a question to ask about the place you are or what's going on. Questions are great conversation-starters. Best one is 'how are you'? for starters Link to post Share on other sites
Baubles Posted November 3, 2003 Share Posted November 3, 2003 my guess is basic training will build up your confidence and solve this problem for you.... in the interim, women prefer men who make an honest attempt- shyness isn't a fault- many women find it endearing. nothing ventured, nothing gained...

Ha. there's a difference between bonding with someone for friendship and trying to attract a mate. Don't even compare them. Kronic, don't use pickup lines but say something conversational to the woman. It doesn't matter what. If she has a funny hat on or there's something unusual in the environment you can mention that. They call this a flirting prop, and this helps you focus on something besides yourself and the girl initially. The main thing is to get her to at least respond to what you're saying so that you can get the talk into romance. Try going through some scenarios in your mind, or even writing them down so that have a feel for how you'd like it to go. Not that it will go that way, but you'll be more prepared.
