I was speaking to a friend and this guy said he would not hesitate
to talk to girls anywhere -even at work- he would ask out a customer. I am hesitant to approach strange women I don't know
and just start talking to them- but how else do I meet women ??
Is it wrong to try to approach women anywhere you see them
and try talking to them- be it at a grocery, store, mall,etc..?
I nalways think what would I say,and what would they think ?
Am i fighting a losing battle by talking to women
in strange places like this ??
Please help with serious input- I would appreciate it !

at work? depends if she's in the front line...you can pretend to be a client & go from there..
in the grocery? be sure she is not with someone, a hubby or bf maybe...ask her opinion which detergent is best, lol
mall? same thing be watchful..ask her which gift is best for your mom..etc.
act humbly and not airy...SMILE your best and be sincere when you ask...eye contact is good but not overdo it..
with these, i think it's alright to approach us...charm away, mate!

these days there is zero tolerance for a lot of things, so whatever you say to them best not be an inuendo, something that could be taken for rudeness or arrogance, nothing that could be taken as a too fast approach or a quick date, or make you sound needy.
It's not the point of "approaching women anywhere"...what works is if you are simply a friendly person, no pressure, just say hi, ask a simple question and move on. Eventually someone who is interested will ask a question back and the two of you will talk.
In a grocery store simply ask where a product is located. In a mall ask where a certain store is. Or have lunch in the mall. Sit where there's lots of people, help a lady with her chair. If her hands are full help take her drink to a table and ask if it's ok to sit and chat. It's just as simple as that.

Sure it's okay - a great way to meet people. Just check for a wedding ring first. And don't pick someone who looks really busy or stressed out.
You don't need to "chat them up" or have a line - the very fact that you approached a complete stranger shows that you're interested.
I've been approached several times this way by guys, and it's very flattering. Make sure that you have a graceful exit planned in case she's not single or not interested.

As long as you don't approach them all stalker/serial killerish...
The whole "picking up on" way of telling someone you're interested is definately a turn off.
You might try being honest and telling a girl that you feel like a dork, but would it be okay to give her your number and maybe take her out for ___ (daytime, large crowd around activity). That way, if she's interested, she can be the one to make the next move.
AVOID pick up lines, funny as they may be they don't usually work, and don't just hand her your number that makes you creepy.

No it's not wrong. I would love for a guy to approach me. I wish guys were more approachable. I am old fashion so I would not approach a guy at all. Because what if he feels sorry for me and just hangs out with me and does not have feelings for me. And I hate rejection. So it is good to approach a women from my point of view.

If you don't meet people at everyday place then where? I think it is beter to approach people in common places rather than some place like a club or bar because people are in their "get a date modd or party mood then" and you may not be taken seriously because that is what is expected at that time. But if you come up to me at a store I would think you arre really intrerested or attracted to me.

You should go easy on them,and talk to them. Then when you know she likes you or is interested.
