Advice on meeting new women?

0

I go to a college and I work in a greasemonkey block; that is, practically everyone in there is male and training to become either a mechanic, an engineer, an electrician, or a builder. It’s not often that women come into my block, however there is nothing prohibiting me from entering other blocks where women more often are.
I don’t necessarily have a reason for approaching women, or any real way of telling if they’re single or not.
Don’t let my course fool you; I may be training to be a mechanic but I am by no means strong, muscular, or manly. I’m skinny, about 5 foot 6, and okay looking.. I’ve just never been good at approaching women. Does anyone have any advice for me? I would greatly appreciate it

I would would say just Be Yourself! I cant tell you how creepy it is when you see a guy staring at you and try to talk to you all weird whispering in your ear its like dude how the F are you.. Really just be yourself.. Say your waiting to get a soda or something just "Hey" "So, whats your meager?" "Oh really, thanks interesting/cool" "Oh I am Anthony by the way" Whats your name? Play it cool... :)

Take dance lessons, or pursue whatever external activity that puts you in touch with new people, including but not limited to, women. Make friends, talk to guys and women you wouldn't personally date, and you'll create a good environment to include women you would date in. Check meetup.com and other sites like it for events in your area.

Be yourself, but be polite! Some people have issues when strangers come to talk, but it could be nice if you say "hi, good morning!", sometimes a "good morning" - if say in a nice way - can save a day... for me at last. ^^ take a deep breath and let it happen. [sorry my not perfect english]

I've never had a huge problem talking with women for the first time, and i don't say that to sound super full of myself, but rather to show that you don't really have to do to much different. just be kind and courteous, try to make just simple conversation- basically everything you would do to anyone you meet for the first time. maybe try to make them laugh but for the most part just be yourself. don't try to hide it underneath layers of suave masculinity or wisecracking humor. if anything I've suggested isn't you, then don't use it! let your personality shine through and they'll see that. you don't want them to remember you as a hazy recollection of just one of the guys they've talked to; you want to be the one they really remember because you showed them who you are and didn't try to hide it.

I want to say that you should consider the type of woman that you hope to meet, and then where is the most likely place that *type* of woman would hang out. For example, if you're just looking for a good time, then a bar would suffice. But if you want to meet someone who shares the same religious beliefs as you, you could join a church of that faith. If you want an educated woman, then try taking a college course in the evenings where you'd have the opportunity to interact in a social way (like a communications class or theater). I know these are weird suggestions, but I'm just trying to give a lot of examples. Usually the best place to meet someone is in a place where you already have something in common with. Most relationships start at work.. a lot of affairs happen that way too, because people spend 40+ hours together which, when you factor in commute time and the time you spend sleeping, it's more than you would actually spend at home with your spouse. So rather than worrying about pick up lines, you might want to figure out the type of women you want to meet and then take an interest in what she's interested in too, since there aren't any women at work. I have the same problem though man. I don't really hang out in the bar scene anymore so it's hard to meet new people. Oh, have you tried online dating services yet? It's a great way to get to know someone's personality first. Often times relationships also stem from friendships. Good luck!

Well you're gonna strike out I'm letting you know straight outta the gate. However, don't be discouraged. Babe Ruth had the most home runs in his day, as well as strike outs. He either hit a home run or nothing at all. My point is that when you strike out just step right back up to plate and keep swinging.

The trick is breaking the ice, head to the textiles block and get a girl you're interested in to inspect the fabric of your jacket asking what it is. When she tells you casually mention that you're pretty sure it's actually boyfriend material.You're going to crash and burn a lot but it will just refine your approach there is no secret or trick (aside from that killer line) have confidence and be yourself. like everyone else suggested.
