    They know it takes courage to approach them, but that doesn't mean they will excuse guys that like them and never make their move.

    In my experience, if a girl is giving you signals and you like her, then you should approach her as soon as possible. I lost many opportunities because of the whole "first she needs to know me" or "first I need to become her friend". I would stuck myself in friendzone and think one day she would magically go on date with me lol.

    That's why so many women say confidence is more attractive in a man than looks, body, or even money. The man with the balls to go straight up to a woman he's never met and say "hey there, I noticed you and wanted to say hi" (in a genuine and direct but non threatening way of course) -- that's a rare man especially today when so many hide behind a screen. At that point the woman has to deal with you in the moment -- whether that be to reject you outright, make polite conversation and leave, or go farther. She ultimately controls how far the interaction will go but as long as you're OK with any outcome you still have won.

    I think the beautifull women who get approached many times, they choose the best male, so one that has it all, looks, money, confidence, intelligence, like they say, beautifull women get a lot of attention, so their requirements are higher. I would be so if I was a beautifull woman......

    @WildEntheology , sometimes it could be the affect of watching too much porn, so it is important for us guys not to watch porn and not masturbate too much, let's keep our thoughts as clean as possible, we men should learn just to enjoy the beauty of women, and if we want to bang her, just to manage these desires, by not giving in the sexual fantasies with her.
    I had a friend who watches too much porn and acting creepy and weird.

    I doubt they are aware of how extreme it is generally - studies have shown to ask a woman out (and the anxiety/fear it creates) stimulates the same part of your brain as actual, physical torture.

    It’s not easy, at all, but if you make eye contact with a woman you have about 7 seconds to begin to approach or you begin losing value in her eyes (evolutionarily). Most will hum and haw and waver and think about what to say and then go. If you can go immediately you are in the top percentile of confidence and it matters far less how attractive you are.

    They don't give a Damm. It's like saying if the deer cares if the tiger is anxious to hunt it.

    If a man is anxious to approach a girl that is a man a girl has no interest to be with.

    It's not simply a technique or having balls. It's about having your life in order. Your mind, emotions and energy in order.

    If you are a loser, fapper, can't handle your emotions, lazy, out of shape, broke then you have no chance with girls

    You need to be the best version of yourself then approaching is no problem.

    There's no shortcuts, secret or technique to be a quality man.

    Approaching is the easiest thing to do when dealing with a girl and if you consider that hard you have not done even 1% of what is require to deal and keep a girl.

    Bro you need to stop with the cursing and talking about ejaculation and impregnating girls if you keep talking like this your streak will be over in days or hours.

    You are getting out of hand also thinking too much about girls. Do that when your streak is stronger. Just an opinion take it or leave it.

    I can agree with most I suppose, but then I observe reality, who is dating who, who is married with who etc, if this is always the case. Important is also to consider also if the woman is compatible with you or not, well it depends on what your goal is I suppose, some people just want sex and not long term relationship. Long term relationship has different requirements.

    Some women are willing to build up together even if the man has nothing yet, only requirement is, he has good mindset and is not lazy. I must observe reality more, how many women are like this ?

    @modern milarepa , ok so have you approached female strangers in public places ? Or this isn't your style ?

    Ok course, it's more easy to charm a girl on real life. Cold approach has many advantages than lets say using a dating app

    Anybody can get laid if they know how to cold approach and seduce. But if you don't have your life in order women and lust will eat you alive. Even if you are married, like some men here with porn addiction that are married.

    It's not about having sex or have a girl. It's about being with a girl and making something positive out of it.

    Otherwise you are just living 3d real life porn.

    Many, if your energy and mind are in order that is very attractive.

    But relationship and women require money also if you are out of shape that is not very appealing.

    Relationships require practical and mundane assets.

    @modern milarepa , not all know how, like me (trying to break out of this), all my male friends don't know how, I have a male friend who knows other male friends who don't know how, they are all single, they are even too shy to talk about the topic, how can men approach female strangers, I tried to talk about this subject so that we can motivate eachother and give eachother tips etc, but not even talking about it they want to. You can say a group of nerds, they all have stable jobs, law abiding citizens, not drugs addicsts, propably porn addicts, but even this they dont want to admit, no girl friends, guess I and they are all cowards regarding approaching women. I am trying to break out of this, but I have no friends to talk about this and give eachother tips to motivate eachother, so I am trying youtube and this forum and also self experiment by forcing myself to do it, I have done some approaches already. My problem is approaching female strangers in public, I seem to have issue with this, I am more comfortable approaching women in familiar settings like same club, same class, same company, same circle of friends etc, not that I always have the courage to do it, but I have more courage to do in familiar settings than in public like some event, shop etc. Problem with familiar setting is, there sometimes aren't women you are interested in or they are not interested in you, the pool of women is small in this settings, the public pool has more interesting women, if men dare to approach.

    The problem is you think there is a method and there's no method to approach the real problem is who you are as a person and your friends.

    Any man with good energy and control of his emotions will naturally know how to approach a girl.

    Try to fix your life and your mind then you will naturally be able to approach.

    Some women may know; many others, not. Women are sort of like men that way - some are intuitive, sensitive, and smart; others, are dumb and dense as doorposts. Men and women alike. One cannot categorize the group as a whole in such a question.
