So it is not the first minute. First few? Which means the first minute she is checking you out to make sure you are attractive and if not, she is out right?

I recently had a guy come up to me while I was looking at yogurt. He asked if he could get around me to reach the brand he liked. Then he pointed out what I had in my hand and asked me if it was better, etc. It was a natural approach and it worked. I'm nice but I can be pretty standoffish...worked like a charm.

It helped that he is also my type.

Exactly. OP, I won't go so far as to say that Jones is wrong, but he is far from having the one right answer. And before you take his advice, read up on him a bit. Here are some threads that he has started:

Men, why don't you follow the golden rule of dating?

Girl stopped talking to me after we had sex

All of you are giving the original poster bad advice. Everything he stated in his original post is correct. More surprising, his friends who happen to be women advised him that there is no point in engaging in conversations simply due to the fact that most women make up their mind if they find a man attractive within a minute. A simple approach will work. Creepy or coming out as weird...come on. Any man who has game knows that if a girl likes you she will always say yes. It might work for women to strike a conversation with men simply due to the fact some of us might be desperate and will look past how someone looks. However, I can assure you a quick conversation with a women is not going to change her mind. Her mind is made up the minute she sees you. Its either "I want to know more about him" or "I am not interested, if he makes a move on me I'll either be honest or lay it down on him gently (the passive aggressive route).

OP you already know the right answer on how to approach a woman. All of the other advice that these other posters are giving you is nonsense. They are just media driven baloney that has brainwashed american society into thinking that their is an art to dating.

No kissing and telling. He did switch brands, though. My guess is that he wasn't shopping for yogurt in the first place.

Well from judging from the response to that one book - Fifty Shades of Ashiness, I think - your best bet would be to walk up to her, look her up and down, shrug, and say "let's leave now" and walk away. She'll follow you for sure.

This is a joke, right? (You never know on C-D)
