I use the "celebrity method". Celebs get approached by women all the time or at bare minimum the women make it extremely easy for you to talk. That means if a woman wont do the previous things then you simply arent worth the effort or her. Sure you could potentially get a date by approaching but the requires that you can convince her to choose you. In other words she doesnt deem you naturally worthy

Gary Busey's son can supposedly act too. He makes Keanu look like Robert De Niro.

Interesting thread... if anything, this confirms what women say in this forum when they insist they are not asked out very often at all and are ignored. More than half here haven't asked out a single woman in over a year.

Well all women consider me not worth the effort. (Shrugs shoulders).

When you get rejected so many times, guys stop trying. I know I did.

I don't understand why people take rejection so personally--most times it's not even rejection. It's just a lack of interest or perceived compatibility for romance (you aren't the person's type, they already have someone, they aren't interested in a relationship right now, etc).

I approach men all the time and I've yet to get a date out of it. Yes, it can be discouraging at times, but in the end it doesn't matter because it means I have a better chance of finding someone who is a better match. The only frustrating bit are the wishy washy guys who aren't interested but won't tell you so clearly (they waste my time/string along).

But, to each his (or her) own. I really hope the guys here posting they never approach aren't the same ones who chide and get angry at some women for not approaching. That would be a bit hypocritical.
