Girls on the street
I was walking home the other day with my freind from the gym, and on the way back he started chatting to almost every girl on the street asking for their number and stuff and every single one not only refused him but gave proper harsh looks like they've just been offended or something.
Obviiously it didnt shake his confidence. He told me he does this all the time and he does it to so many girls that even thought most reject him, there are a few that are actually interested and go forward.
What puzzled me is that why did allthese girls look so pissed off. If they don't like the guy fair enough but atleast be flattered, the guy just complimented you. So, why? -
Re: Girls on the streetHe might not think they're easy,might have just been feeling confident and thought he'd take a chance. but tbh I don't see what the problem is in a guy being attracted to a woman on the street and striking up a friendly conversation. From what the OP has said,it seems his friend was going about it all the wrong way. Whether or not the girl's interested would be down to how the guy handles the situation no?(Original post by Farooqi bean)
Weeeeell if he's doing that then it kind of implies he thinks they're easy or something, so some girls may well be a bit
i certainly would be

Re: Girls on the street
real talk, ten girls have given me their number on the street, u just need to come correct that's it. more guys need explore that avenue , girls are not as hard as some people imagine, u don't have to be ugly though. alot of my friends do this too, take a stroll when bore and link a couple of things and that.
Dsclaimer: this doesn't apply to white things as we don't go out with them, so can't give an honest opinion about them, just black things -
Re: Girls on the street
I think its very impolite to give harsh looks and be pissed off as a girl if a guy asks you out. I agree with you should be flattered at the very least. These girls must be too ignorant too nicely say no. I would never treat a guy like that who asked me for my number, one he has shown courage and even I disliked him, I would say so. However, if he carried on pestering me after me saying no then I would give him the cold shoulder. LOL

Possibly, but it’s difficult to consider what the other person’s thinking or intentions are in that situation, so the most likely reaction is going to be one of ‘begone, pervert!’ Generally speaking, it’s not usually exactly gentlemanly behaviour either, if the person was polite and interested and a little flirty, then I could understand how that’s attractive, so yeah the way it's handled is important (in my humble opinion)But leers and comments just make you feel a bit

Re: Girls on the streetI can very well understand their reactions. Come on, have a look at the kind of guys that mostly do this...(Original post by HannahD75)

If there's a nice and friendly guy that approaches a girl and would like to get to know her better whenever she might have time - that's a completely different story. In this situation, it would probably be better to give the girl your number instead of asking for hers, though. That way she can feel "safe" and being the one who makes a decision (to get in touch or not get in touch). I didn't want some random strangers texting me all day and night if I was a girl (actually, I wouldn't want to be in this situation as a guy, too).
In short: If the guy behaves like a gentleman and shows genuine interest in just having a coffee or so, I don't see any reason why girls would reject him harshly - and I doubt more than very few would. -
Re: Girls on the street
Example: When being in London I'm asked for directions quite often, once every few days. Actually, I'm not asked... and that's the problem. Regardless of their gender, most of them are just extremely impolite - and I'm talking about the proper English speaking ones here. No 'excuse me', not even a 'hello' but just a "where is ..." or "<random place>. where is it?". When I'm listening to music, they even shout at me. From the side. If I was a girl and a guy would be hitting on me that way, I'd either ignore him completely or tell him to f... ehm, get lost.
Hm... when thinking about it, the only people that were behaving friendly were East Asian tourists. Their English usually is (much) worse, but they act like they'd appreciate your help.
