how apart should you be when saying HI?

[napoleon]

I have a good intention to say hi to girls but the problem is I don't know if they are giving me eye contact. So I say Hi even if I doubt it but the problem is I say "Hi"(not with a soft but a deep and also playful voice) and the girls walk past me like I didn't exist.They don't even look at me. They just keep walking:
What's the problem,because I want to start the boot camp.

First get used to just looking people in the eyes and holding a decent gaze, usually until THEY look away. Practice doing this with EVERYONE (except tough bikers with girlfriends) until your comfortable, then practice saying "Hi"

Cheers!

that's too random. try making conversations with girls who aren't going anywhere. girls who are walking past you are not really thinking about getting to know some stranger. just gotta pick the right time. not while they're walking past you. even if they DO say hi and look back, it's gonna be hard to get them to stay and chat.

 

[TOOBAD]

Agreed, but, it takes a bit of time to get confident at looking people in the eye's if your not naturally comfortable doing that so I still say make eye contact for your own skills to display confidence.

 

[napoleon]

I have already practiced EC and don't have problem with it,although other people have it.

 

[TOOBAD]

If you and a girl are making eye contact, smile first, if you get a smile back say a polite "hi" in your own natural voice with increased volume so she hears you. She is bound to reply if she smiles so start a convo from there!

Problem is I can't find girls that are standing. Also I have asked this question before but will ask it once again-I am walking and if a girl gives me EC it is when we are passing by ,like shoulder to shoulder , so I have no time to smile and say hi. I have to say hi before. Also should I smile before we make EC?

dude, you can't start conversations with a girl walking past you. it just doesn't work. if it does, then they must really wanna get a lay. either that or they're ugly. i'm pretty fuken sure there's girls that are sitting down somewhere. here's an idea: stop looking so hard. just wait for oppurtunities.

 

[napoleon]

I am not desperately looking for girls ,I am trying to become comfortable saying hi to girls. I also can't find girls that are alone and sitting. They are always in a group.

Go to a mall, look until you see a shop where a girl is working there alone..walk in and say hi.

People make too much of a big freaking deal out of the littlest stuff.

1. how close should you be? 5.2metres apart.

seriously though, ec then hi then whatever you want

2. how do you stop and have a convo with her on the street? get a red cagoule, paint in white letters "homeless shelter", then put in on, go out in the street with a notepad and pen and start spreading your arms out like she can't get past you, then talk to her about homeless people, then say how it was all a trap so you could chat her up. simple eh?

disclaimer: the above is creative bull**** and i don't accept any responsibility if you don't find it funny and take it seriously

This is going to sound dorkish, but I'm saying it anyways.

The greeks invented something called the golden ratio, which can be used to calculate perfect symetry and beauty. So say a woman stand about five feet tall, you would times 5 by 1.62 to find out EXACTLY how far you should stand away from the girl to make the greatest impression. So, that should come to be about "8 feet 1 inches", which is how far away you should stand from here while saying hi.

Yeah, right....

Seriously though, probably the best answer I can give you would be to say "hi" however far apart you want from her. Does it matter? Not really, in fact, you want to invade her personal space, just in a way that is appropiate, though.

Actually, what I said has truth. I'm just not going to say that it will work just like that to make the greatest impression, though I'm not opposed to investigation.

Read this link, it describes the golden ratio and porportion, and how the most beautiful women in the world closely match the symetry from the formula.

Don't lie!

Haha, anyway... The way to stop a girl is to ask her an informative question with a cold approach. Just say, "hey any idea where's the closest bus station around here?" or something along those lines. Once she explains this to you, put a slight grin on your face and ask her about getting together sometime and get those digits.

Be smooth and it WILL work. I've done similar approaches and they work. The thing is you have to be confident in the approach or else she wouldn't want anything to do with you. Be a little mysterious/playful/smooth etc and work from there. Remember, it won't always work perfect but after the approach you can analyze what happened, what you did wrong, what you did good, to fine-tune your game.
