This is the first in a series of articles I'm going to write under the heading of Rx REciPe. Rx stands for prescription, as well as REd-xL (merely a coincidence). If you want to see some of my earlier (untitled) work, check in the archives of the past few weeks.
Article #1: Techniques to Facilitate Approaching Girls
.........................................
Here are a few tips you can use to make your life easier when it comes to confronting girls:
1. When you first meet a girl, try to make eye contact with her. When she looks at you, give her a nice, casual smile. Her reaction to this is what can determine whether she is approachable or not.
GOOD
smiles back
looks down then away
subtely opens up (brushes hair from face, unbuttons jacket, uncrosses arms, leans forward, etc.)
tilts head
increases blinking rate
BAD
immediately looks away
turns her head at all
subtely closes up (usually happens with girls who already have boyfriends)
NEUTRAL/TRY AGAIN
keeps staring
looks away (but not down first or immediately)
If you can weed out some girls that will shut you down, you can avoid the blow to self-esteem and time wasted when threy give you the shaft.
2. Now that you know which girls to approach, what do you say to them? What kind of opening line can you use without looking silly or stupid?
Answer: "Hi" with a nice, casual smile.
In a research project, 71% of women acknowledged and responded to men who opened up with that line. Needless to say, 100% of men did the same for women who approached and said, "Hi."
Conclusion? The odds are totally in your favor, especially after you've separated some of the 29% from the playing field.
3. OK, now I've really got her attention, but now what do I talk about?
This is usually where most men have the biggest problem: flirting. Here are some basic tips:
Keep the focus of the conversation about her. People love to talk about themselves, especially about their ambitions and dreams.
Try to make cute jokes, but never about her or yourself (example: I'm gay...just kidding!). This is a sign of weakness, especially during a first impression.
Always keep good eye contact, but never stare.
Never talk about guy stuff (cars, sports, sex, etc.) unless she brings it up.
If you need to initiate the conversation, find something unique on her body and ask her about it. My favorite is the design on the T-shirts, especially the part covering the t'its. This is an advertisement, so act like a client.
Only ask open-ended questions.
Avoid topics about politics or relationships.
Always keep the conversation upbeat.
We all know what a good conversation goes like, but we often make the mistake of letting it carry on for too long until the conversation gets boring. Learn to cut it off by telling her you have to take care of something. Ask for her number. If everything went fluidly, you've got yourself a winner.
4. Confidence, confidence, confidence, and, alas, confidence....I can never stress this point enough. You're preceived as you act.
5. Extra tidbits:
Once you feel that vibe between you and a girl, chances are she's feeling the exact same way. Take advantage of this opportunity to touch her arm or hand every now and then when you mention her.
If she initiates the conversation, you're in great luck.
If she's with friends, talk to the group and slowly narrow the conversation down to her, exclusively. It'll make her feel really special to be exclusive.
Never complain about anything unless you mean to joke (don't even try talking about the difference between sexes).
Stand still when you talk to her, and try not to make too many movements with your hands.
As we all should know by now, wait at least 3-4 days before calling her back.
Anytime you feel your insecurities holding you back, tell yourself, "I only live life once!" under your breath. Put your head down, full-steam ahead, and don't even look back!
If you've read this far, you have the ambition to succeed with girls. Go get 'em, Tiger!

sweet post,u have it down to a science, however making "cute jokes" how is that a sing of weekness? i do this all the time, either the more i drink at a club or the less i like the girl the "cute joke" gets more agressive. the agressive side would be telling the girl "yea its been weird lately, been fighting a virus" girl- "whats that" me- "hiv have you heard of it?". i admit it dosent get me anywhere but its funny to see there reaction. wheres the weekness though?

Still, it's a great outline of the basics. Outstanding post.

This is a good idea for approaching girls. But my advise is this:
When you make some kinda eye contact and start talking, dont smile. Cause when you smile that shows that your nervous.
Not smiling and just focusing on her shows confidence. Especially if shes hot, dont smile unless a joke is told. She already used to guys blushing around her. When you dont smile that shows that 1.) youve seen better 2.) your not subconciously in her back pocket.
you all should remember this. With me, it just comes naturally now. When i see a hottie and start talkin i just peer down on her with my eyes. Im pretty sure girls like my dark eyes. And im sure theyll like whatever color eyes you guys have.
Just start talking casually about things...not everything HAS to be about her, you can always put in lil snidbits about yourself. Us real guys know that you cant just keep on talkin and talkin and talkin about her asking her questions cause it turns into an interveiw which could bore the balls off a horse.
One more thing, ...like i said, i like red's ideas and all but i disagree with another one of his statements.
Dont be like the way he said and wait for a positive reaction. Ask yourself this...do you like yourself? (that answer should be yes) So why are you waiting to see if she'll like you? See people, that makes you nervous and start to look back at yourself thinking " does she like me enough for me to approach her?" Thats corny....when you see a hot girl and lets say for instance she's alone, go up and talk to her, because why?????? you wanna find out if YOU will like HER. Is SHE good enough for YOU? is SHE dating material???
Your supposed to already know your hot. Damn it, i know i am.
Talk to her a bit about whatever pops into your mind. Its easy, just focus on whatever she's doing at the time...you can continue talking about that for a while then ask her age, or where she may go to school...if shes in college, what major...then leave it on a good note and say, "look i gotta get ready to go, but can i give you a call sometime"
Its easy as blueberry pie.
If she says she has a bf...which is usually the normal answer...( if there was a good vibe) say, well we could be friends. Thats builds rapport hanging around a hot chick...cause shes got friends.

OOoooh i forgot!
back to when your talking, dont smile fully, just smirk. The smirk says a lot. It shows confidence, being under control,and it shows interests.
Do this when funny things happen, she'll be yours no question.

Bashful,
You'll get the picture someday. You're now starting to think about technique rather than looks, which is good. But NOT Smiling says you're bored and guys who are bored at a club where they're trying to pick up women are boring guys. Women don't want boring guys, they want exciting guys.
DO SMILE. When you see a chick you like, and manage to catch her eye, c0ck your head to the side a bit, and let a smile build slowly but in your eyes, convey sexy. Not smiling makes you look either boring or creepy.
I learned this one from watching James Dean. Squint a little bit. Women dig it. Why? Because the male trait for eyes are rectangular and narrow, whereas the female trait is large and ovoid. Lower your eyebrows slightly and bring them together slightly. Then walk over. Shoulders high, proper posture. Show her your strut. This is something you should work on. Your strut displays how you feel about yourself. That you are confident, aware, and strong.
When talking to her, SMILE. It is disarming, attractive, and conveys security.
The rest is up to you. When you KNOW that you can rock her world, that you are a catch and a half, that you are the best damn mofo in the room, they'll sense it, feel it, believe it, and want it.
Bashful, NEVER Suggest being friends with a girl you want to bone. It's counter productive. Your conversation SHOULD be an interview, you're testing the waters out to see if you like her enough to spend more time with her, after all, she may be a complete b*tch. She may want to know more about you, but answering directly is counter productive. Mysterious... remember. Be vague. You're starting to get the hang of the attitude, but your conceptual thinking needs some work.
Cheers,
Deagleclaw out
