Go to an area that you already know pretty well. When you see a woman you’d like to talk to, go up and ask her directions for a place that is in the direction she’s going. (This is why you have to know the neighborhood.)

When she tells you, it’s just up here – of course in the direction she’s headed – you now have the perfect chance to talk to her, since you’re now walking in the same direction.

Now you want to keep her talking. What do women – or anyone – like to talk about the most? Themselves! Ask her about some item of jewelery or clothing she’s wearing. Keep your comments light and non-sexual. Since you’ve now broken the ice, she’ll likely be more relaxed and no doubt whatever you ask about will have some story attached to it. Remember to let her talk as much as you can get her to – don’t try to impress her with a huge dose of your personality and opinions at this point.

Once you get to the place you asked directions for, you should be safely able to say, “Well, it’s been really nice talking to you. I’d really like to do it again.” Then whip out a pad and pen and say, “Here. Write down your number and I’ll call you.” Don’t ask for the number, and make sure you’re prepared with the means to write it down – the pad and pen – which you then hand right to her. You’ve just made it so easy for her to give you her number that she’s not likely to refuse – especially if you’ve made a good impression on her so far!

If all else fails, you can tell her the truth – that you didn’t really need the directions, you just saw her walking along and you just had to meet her. As long as you don’t act all creepy about it, you’ll find that most women find that kind of romantic impulse in a man very attractive indeed!

If she doesn’t want to give you her number, don’t be pushy about it, just thank her for the fun conversation and move on. The important thing to remember is not to take rejection personally! You’ll no doubt meet a lot of women who don’t appreciate or need the attention – in those cases, just let them go and move on to the next babe.

A lot of guys defeat themselves from the start by having the attitude that all women find it annoying to be approached by guys trying to meet them. The hard fact is that a lot of women are vain and/or insecure, constantly worried about whether they have what it takes to attract men. They can say otherwise, but look around you and you’ll see this is very true.

Once you’ve approached enough women, you’ll find that a certain amount of them will really welcome your attention, as long as you act in a reasonable manner.
