One question: how do you guys deal with rejection?
With good humour; I've had plenty of practice :biggrin:

Here is a pretty good approach on a hot blonde in the street....he gets the number...

I've just looked through this guys videos and it's frankly disturbing that he secretly films people and puts it on youtube....

..because you're so short sighted you struggle to read your wristwatch :awesome:

Cockney bloke who thinks you can study 'fashion' at Cambridge vs. attractive blonde Cambridge student hmm :beard:


Hey cool, so what did you think of his approach?

Why is it 'disturbing'? How do you rate his approach?

Well he probably doesn't get their consent to be filmed and be put up on the internet as a 'project' of his. To be honest he sounds like a bit of a moron, unless he is blindingly attractive I think most of those girls are just playing along to get him to leave them alone... or are just being polite.

Fair play to him, at least he's making an effort to go out and approach and he's taking action to improve his dating life, unlike most guys.

Doesn't work unless you're physically very attractive. I'm average looking and tried this with 10 different women, from average to stunning looks, and I've been either blanked out or politely rejected. One even rudely rejected me for being a 'midget' despite the fact I'm taller than her...

Thought this approach works but the outcome was public humiliation.

If a numbskull like that, who clearly doesn't "have to shoot off" and who uses lines like "what's a good way for us to stay in contact?" totally out of the blue one minute into conversation, can get numbers off cuties at random then anyone can :h:


Yeah those did sound a bit like 'canned lines' he had rehearsed beforehand, like some PUA routine or something.

And still...just because he gets phone numbers doesn't mean anything happened with him and the girls. Did he date any of them? Did he kiss any of them? Did he have sex with any of them? All these videos show guys approaching and getting numbers....but you never see what happens after that.

Personally I'm suspicious...I don't think he got anywhere with them apart from getting a bunch of phone numbers.

There was too much small talk in the conversations. It was a bit like he was interviewing them or something. His interactions were too platonic, too polite, with no sexual element, so it's likely the girls will see him as nothing more than a nice male friend.

A better approach would be for him to be more direct, I've seen some users on here talking about that sort of thing.

I just drew a smiley face with some polish writing (I thought she was polish) and then an english part around it saying have a nice day. I then put my FB email on there and she added me, but nothing happened grrr.

Question: Would it be wrong to make templates of this ready to hand out when you see a nice girl?


I'm not really an authority I'm afraid. As it happens, I was on the train today and there was a bloke standing next to me, when the train pulled into the station he suddenly turned to a girl (yound woman) that was standing up to get off and said: "Excuse me, would it be alright for to tell you that I think you're really beautiful. I've seen you a could of times and I just wanted to say that." She didn't seem to mind and they got off having a litte chat.

Aww that is pretty nice...If she started talking to me I would be shocked and then I wouldn't know what to say haha, I'd probably say something like, "Oh this train is great"

I remember talking to an american on the virgin train from london, and I mentioned about her sweater and if she knew a place on that sweater where I've been. Very approachable americans are :smile:

Americans are so chatty. :eek:

Before a flight back to England, there were a group of American girls and they asked me and a few friends why the flight was late, and they did not stop talking for an hour after that. :laugh:
