I've been seeing a lot of questions by guys wondering how to approach women they are interested in, especially if the guy is shy. So, ladies, here is your chance to tell the men of the world which method of approach you prefer, and please be as specific as you can be. Should a shy guy give or send you a card? Do pickup lines work?

SURFERCHICK: Why did you wish me good luck? Did you erroneously assume the answers sought for this question are for me? Did you read the first sentence in the details section? I thought I made it fairly clear for whom the question was being asked.

They can write a quick note if they are too shy or just appraoch the girl with cofidence and hope they say yes. If you impress the girl b4 you ask them out, there is a better chance of them saying YES!!!

Pick up lines are so corny and over rated. They have no originality what so ever. Most people just copy them from some deadbeat comedian off Jimmy Kimmel Live. Truthfully, most women just want guys to be honest, direct, and straight to the point. Look, different women have different tastes. Some find cards to be romantic, others find them to be tacky. Your approach on women has to dependent on the type of girl. If she's shy, ask her to talk in private, and ask if she'd like to go see a movie one day. If she's direct, be bold and straight to the point, and flatter her a bit. But basically, be honest, truthful, straight to the point, and keep your cool. Some girls think it's kind of pathetic when a guy can't even ask a girl out.

Well, I think he should casually begin a conversation. Or ask her a question and start from there. If it's someone you might see everyday, make sure you have a chat to show your friendliness. After you have broken the ice enough, ask for her e-mail or maybe her phone number in a casual, friendly way. I don't think pick-up lines are the best thing, especially if it's a shy guy--though you can give it a shot but as long as it's not a cheesy one like "I lost my number can I have yours?" lol! It's shows the girl that you are probably doing that all the time just to see if you fish one out of the group and doesn't show specific, sincere interest. From there on you're free to ask her out to the movies or to grab something to eat, ice skating, bowling etc.. Be a gentleman , be sweet, funny, have intelligent conversations, and make sure you ask her what her favorite things to do, are. Showing that you are interested in the things she likes shows you care for her. Never be pushy or rude or desperate. Take your time and be yourself!
Goodluck!

Pick up lines never work with me and I for some reason can read a phony or a guy who just wants one thing. I need to first be interested in the guy or I don't want to be approached in the first place. I was asked out by a guy at the post office, I thought it was cute, but I said thank you, no. I like to here a guy say, I would like to take you out sometime. Or would you like to go to coffee? That seems innocent to me.

i like men to be straight forward. i came from asia and men are really conservative. but when i went to the US i was culture shocked by the way the men show their interest.
therefore i would have to say i love it when a man is straight forward from the very beginning. this tells me that he is confident in himself and i don't have to waste so much time thinking about confusing signals.
on one of my business trips to the US, i met this handsome looking guy in the office. seeing that i look different from every one else, he approached me and asked me what i was there for, who i was with on this trip and where i was staying. learning that i was alone on that trip, he handed out his calling card and he told me he lives nearby and would be glad to show me around or accompany me on weekends if i wanted to. we dated the next day.
it was a good thing not wasting our time sending what could be confusing signals.
