While women don't approach men as often as men approach women, you can increase your chances.

Some tips:

- Make eye contact and smile. Acknowledge her and shes more likely to walk up because she feels invited to do so. Don't mope or look angry, that screams "go away."
- Watch your body language, if you are sitting there slumped over with you arms crossed looking hostile, most women won't approach you. Let your body relax, have good posture, and be comfortable looking.
- Be aware of how you dress and are groomed. You don't need to be flawless, but if you look disheveled or like you just woke up from sleeping on a park bench, chances are she won't approach.
- Don't hang out in a huge group of men. Think about how hard it would be for you to approach a woman in a large group of women... it's the same for us. Break yourself away from a group now and then to give a woman a chance (especially if you've seen and made eye contact and exchanged smiles with a woman already).
- Combined with that last one, invite her to approach. Say for example you move away from the group to someplace else. Make eye contact again and maybe wave her over. That not only encourages but shows the confidence so many women find attractive.

Just some ideas. Of course, I am thinking from my perspective, what would get me to approach more readily and what has worked on me in the past to get me to approach.
,

This maybe why women barely talk to me. I usually have "F**k off" look on my face even though I am not mad.

It turns out that he was right, she was interested in me. She said she thought I was a nice guy and was sick of dating douchebags who mistreat her. She invited me to the place she works (Hooters) to watch the Lakers/Clippers game tonight. I keep thinking this is a dream lmao Has this ever happened to you?
No. Usually its unattractive and fat women who think they are a ten in looks that approachs me. Sheesh I need to move to LA or Miami and get the hell out of NYC.

Sorry to hear that, well you know I am quite a bit older than you, I am 43 and I guess my perspective is somewhat different but hey you are sti young and maybe she is not a bad girl after all, from your tone I can sense thag you are pretty angry at her and I know it is not a good feeling, I think both of you should patch things up and at least be friends, I mean sometimes patience is all that is needed ,she might change maybe you are the guy to help her change. But only yoh know if you want to.do that. Anyway to answer your question again, at my age and height and with my face if an attractive woman (especially younger than me ) ever approached me I think she is either blind or crazy.
