I am going to university next year, so that means that my opportunity to meet someone I like will be at its peak. I am a socially repressed gamer who goes to a private school with one girl in my class (she's not my type). Please help me and all the other people who'll read this post.

It's tricky and varies from girl to girl. But the most obvious one would be to relate to her music taste. If you have her facebook, scope out what music she loves. And copy-pasta the music onto your facebook until she notices. This will get her noticing you. Then you can get her on an IM or something and ask for a download link to said songs. This will set you up for a conversation starter.

As I said it wildly varies from girl to girl. But this generally works. Best of luck to you chap.

Something along the lines of "Hi I'm *insert name here* how are you?" might work though I've never been good with girls either so my advice is probably not that useful.

How can you know if you like someone if you havent been introduced? If you never talked to the girl your just pining for her a**.

[edit]
So a more accurate topic would be? "How do I get girls i dont know to be interested in me"

Easy:

Be handsome, funny, caring, sympathetic, emotional(not a wet blanket) or just rich/famous.

Never talk to a girl with your mindset being "I want that girl to be mine". The easiest way is to approach a girl with the mindset of "She's my best mate". Think about it. If you put up a front aand lie about who you are, she may be interested for a day or so but you can't stop yourself from being yourself. Girls are far more interested in talking than sex.

The easiest way to break the ice is to look and listen. Look at what she wears. What does it say about her? Does it show she likes the same music as you? The same colour you like? You just got a conversation starter. If you find something that suits your interests, say "Aw hey, you like [BAND]? I saw them in concert ages ago and it was awesome. Did you see them live at all?" or something like that.

Remember that conversation is far easier than trying to 'get her'.

Also, pay attention to body language. Does she look bored? Then say something along the lines of "You look as happy to be here as I am." Try to stay away from yes/no questions. It doesn't lead to conversation.
Does she look happy at something she just read or saw? Comment on that shit!

Example:
*Dog bites old man*
Girl: LOL!!!
You: Hah! So you like the whole masochism thing? Or did that guy swear at you or something?

Nerves are a killer in conversations. However, all you need is an icebreaker. Use those tips and see how much easier it is to talk and see where it goes from there.

Good luck!

Get a wingman to go up to them and go "Hi, haaaaave you met [insert your name here]". Then he leaves, and you're done.


On a more serious note, just be yourself. Comment on what she's doing (in an appropriate manor) or where you are, or if you're in the same class you can talk about that.

I would suggest finding one that is your type, since your a gamer, then find one of those rare gamers of the opposite sex and start a conversation about games as you would both be interested in them, and proceed from there. (Don't forget your +5 Ring Of Charismatic Conversations.)

Pretty much this. My best advice to you is act as though you haven't decided if you like her yet (BECAUSE YOU FUCKING SHOULDN'T HAVE) and then talk to her nicely but in a way that suggests you expect to be impressed. Ask her questions about herself and decide, noticeably, if you like her answers. If you like what you;re hearing let her know but don't be afraid to tease.

P.S the copy paste music taste of facebook is terrifying don't do that. You will get a reputation for being an insane psychokiller. :)

First off I'd say avoid viewing all girls like potential girlfriends, view them as people you will meet and interact with.

Chances are you'll be standing in about 10 queue's for registration so chances are you'll be around people who will be in your department for a fair chunk of the day so just say "Hi, I'm Renegade-pizza. What are you here for?" Even test it on a few guys first, try generic and get to know people stuff. Avoid the weather and stuff, it always sounds like you are grasping at straws if it isn't some kind of fairly extreme conditions.

One thing that can catch you is if you have a nickname that everyone has used for years, like I did, I didn't notice when people said stuff but called me by my name. Seriously only my family actually used my name for like 12 years so people saying "Hey, Manythings!" passed right over my head for a shamefully long time. Probably a good idea to learn other people's names, which I really don't but I am very good at dodging around by saying things that could be applied to most people.

I would say if you really are hopeless at women (as many of us are) then don't try to be a pick-up line guy. Just don't. It works for some guys because they are either good looking or are very good at saying the right things in the right way. If you aren't either of those you sound like a tool. Talk to them and if possible try to work on your sense of humour hard. Making women laugh does work. Seriously keep in well order, I'm a notorious lazy shaver. Once a week give or take and I end up looking like a scraggly hobo but if there is a woman I at least try to keep it too once every 2 days.

I might add something elsse if I think of it.

I would test this out in a controlled setting with a wingman you know you can trust rather than out on campus or whatever. Like a party or a club. (How I met your mother is a great show but I wouldn't call Barney a good source for tactics and advice.)

To make first contact, make a comment about something unique about her. Anything at all, something she's wearing or carrying or doing.

"Hey, what's the deal with BLANK? That's cool."

This is the best possible advice.
U mad?

How many people introduce themselves to other people like this? It's never exactly like that. Some people, maybe, but this is just telling them what your name is... How is that interesting or a conversation starter? Not poking fun or anything but I personally wouldn't try that.

My penis is super big, some would say it could stretch from a-z on the keyboard... But I let the women do the deciding ;)

ninjad Damn =.=

Edit: I know that a-z are next to each other on the keyboard, it was a joke

I'm not following how I could have been mad... I was simply agreeing that that user gave the best advice in that situation. Introducing yourself is the first step to any conversation, for me at least.

Depends on the girl, and the situation.

Though as a general tip, "Hi, I'm (insert name) is usually a pretty good place to start.

Thanks for actually clearing up my post a bit, and being able to give some advice. I completely agree. "and decide, noticeably, if you like her answers" A small frown can result in a very long discussion :D
