The art of approaching girls is perhaps one of the most important parts of courtship. As the saying goes, a good start is half the battle won. When approaching a girl, be confident, stand up straight and look at her in the eye. This action portrays your confidence and makes the girl more accepting of you compared to someone who averts their eyes. Also, you must not be someone you are not, meaning that there shouldn’t be any pretence about yourself. Be natural and forthcoming, and you will gain their appreciation for being honest and truthful. After all, who wants to date someone they cannot trust?

I understand that the first encounter can be an absolute disaster, with you screwing up badly. However, you have to ditch that negative mindset and be positive about yourself. Think to yourself, “I can do it. I can walk up and say hello and introduce myself.” Sometimes it takes a large amount of courage just to do that and the key is that you must be positive about it, because positivity shows.

Another way to break the ice is of course to tell jokes. If you are not the stand up comedian type (indeed how many of us are?) it’s OK too. You can start making fun of yourself. Share something that funny that happens to you. Anything will do. Laugh at yourself! The reason for this is that this can serve as an ice breaker and also it shows that you are confident and self secure to be able to laugh at yourself. This creates a very good impression in her mind and your future interactions with the girl will be much easier, now that the ice is broken.

Even after this show of confidence and self assurance and the girl rejects you, it’s ok, since no girl in the right mind will reject someone with high confidence level. There will always be other fishes in the pond so stay positive! Keep your positivity up and you will find your love one day!
