chris g. Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 im sure this has been covered but i couldnt find anything on it. Im in college, in one of my classes Theres this girl i really want to talk to, but have nothing to say. I dont have a problem talking to women once im talking. im not nervous about that, its just talking to a complete stranger that i cant bring my self to do. I would rather not ask about something class related like 'how did you do on that test'. Should i start right off with something about the class or try to think of something more original to say. any suggestions. thanks. c.g.
westernxer Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Be yourself, that's all. However, if you don't have anything to say, then don't make a fool of yourself by trying too hard. Let me tell you about a college experience I had back in the day. Big class, auditorium seating, always crowded. Across the row was this cute blond whom I could never talk with, given the size of the class (I was also a little shy at the time). One day we both got there early and I caught her looking my way, so I smiled at her and nodded my head in acknowledgment. Next thing I know, she was picking up her books to come and sit next to me, and she even gave me her phone number when class ended, although I never took advantage like I should have... oh well, that's college. Too many distractions, I guess. Just send a smile her way and say hello, and make steady eye contact while doing so. If she smiles back and/or shies away from you momentarily, it means she's flattered. She'll also be more receptive the next time she sees you. Then you can go up and introduce yourself, or even sit next to her if you want. The key is to show that you're confident. Just be natural about it, that's all. If the two of you click, it's because both of you are adding to the conversation. You can initiate, but she has to respond in kind. If she doesn't, then at least you tried. Nothing wrong with that. That's what taking risks is all about, and eventually it'll work out. Remember, it takes two to tango. One can never do it alone. Hope I'm not making this more complicated than it really is.

Hopefully that wierdo is not YOU And don't start off w/ anything like "so, I can see you're wearing pink panties today". That is only reserved for advanced level pickup artists.
April22 Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 I don't really have advice of what you should do, but I want to push that you best do something! There was a guy in one of my college classes that I was definitely interested in. He was very outgoing, funny, and umm gorgeous! I saw him noticing me when I could walk across the room, but I was always too terrified to make a move. The class was over a long time ago and I still regret to this day never making a move to at least make contact with him. The post above gave good advice, I say follow that and make sure you don't get all nervous and loose your chance like I did
