How to approach girls on campus?

So when you say there's girls you don't find attractive are you basing it just on their looks or have you actually got to know them and they have dislikeable personalities?

If it's the former, there's one of your problems, but easily solved. Of course you can talk to girls anytime, but do it to be friends and see how it goes. You don't just randomly walk up to her, though you could do it on your way into/out of class, through a study group or at a society It's just not good to start flirting and getting too involved too soon.

However, looking for a relationship because you're lonely isn't advisable. A partner isn't there to fix a problem like that and it could come over as desperate. Sort that first by waiting until you want a girlfriend for herself and not because you haven't got anybody.

Stick to social situations where singles are looking out for someone. Approaching girls randomly as they go about their everyday business is bad form and poor strategy. If you’re as attractive as you say it shouldn’t be difficult to find a relationship

There’s nothing wrong with cold-approaching. Women actually prefer men who cold-approach as they rarely get hit on respectfully in real-life.
Not at all. Countless counter examples.

This is nonsense!

I don't know what you're smoking mate, but I want some.

The whole concept of "cold approaching" is fundamentally flawed... the only time it's ever likely to have any real success is if either:-

a) you're naturally a very good looking charming / charismatic , naturally outgoing / chatty person or
b) if a girl has gone to a lot of trouble for a very niche look, and you can pick up on some very small, specific details.

Think about it logically for a second... an attractive girl is likely to be used to male attention, compliments etc. 24/7, so there's nothing you can tell her that she hasn't already heard 000's of times before. In somewhere like the pub/ club scenario, she's there expecting to be chatted up so she'll be open to offers from the right kind of guy(s). When she's walking around campus she'll be in a completely different mindset. You never know what's going through her mind. it could be any of the following:-

a) She's stressing about a coursework deadline
b) hoping not to miss a bus / train
c) pondering the latest EastEnders or Coronation Street plot
d) the cat may have died.

Any cold approach when she's going about her business will seem like you're interrupting her... or worse still, sneaking up on her. So straight away you're making a bad impression.

Stop browsing PUA forums, cause they're basically a scam. I mean, you're paying a "coach" who said you'll get a girl after 2-300 approaches, seriously WTF?!?

Your response is fundamentally flawed.
Women know a lot of guys don’t have the confidence to approach them in real life like on a campus so appreciate it when it happens.
If they’re not in the mood to talk they won’t talk, but surprisingly a lot are happy to talk and have a conversation.
If you cold-approach a woman in the park / walking around on the weekend or on a campus, they would likely be happy to talk depending on the way you approach.
Watch the Social Animal episodes to see lots of counter examples.

They may be happy to talk if, maybe you can catch their eye and get a smile from them (the likelihood is that they find you good looking)... but this doesn't happen to most guys.

I would say the evidence (on this forum) suggests most girls don't like being cold approached by strangers.... this thread below for example:-

but let's put it to the test and ask them... Girls, do you like it when a random person comes and tries to chat you up when you're going about your day-to-day business?

Besides, if you're so confident in your answers, why are you posting anonymously?

Why don’t you check out Social Animal as I said to see hundreds of counter-examples?

There’s nothing wrong with cold-approaching.

How did people make friends before there were phones? There’s nothing wrong with talking to a stranger.

Before mobile phones, internet etc, people met through networking or in social environments as pointed out by the others who have already posted here.

And while I agree, there's nothing wrong (in theory) with talking to a stranger, the reality is that most people probably won't be very receptive (unless there are very specific conditions, such as those I mentioned in my previous post).

Try cold approaching someone in London, and see how far you get lol.

So you didn’t do your research. Social Animal is when subscribers sign up for a challenge to speak to women in their area. It’s 100% real and the results are there to see.
Your theories have been debunked.
The guys in those videos aren’t all good looking, and they have got some numbers and positive responses. There’s 100 different people who have done it so definitely covers all varieties.
If you watch the videos a lot of the interactions aren’t successful in obtaining a number but they all pretty much get at less one in a video.
The guy who owns the channel isn’t selling any product.
So clearly you did no research into the Social Animal channel.
Until you do that research, I won’t be responding to you further.
In those videos, there are actually some examples in London…

... and you clearly haven't commented on the thread I've posted... real examples from users from this board.

So we're even bro. 👍️

It’s been a several months now since me and my girlfriend broke up and I’m ready to start dating again. I have no idea how to meet girls since most girls I know through friends aren’t very attractive. I see really gorgeous girls on campus all the time but I’ve never in my life just walked up to a girl I didn’t know because I’m quite shy around girls and met my ex through friends.
I have been told I’m very attractive had so many girls have crushes on me when I was in high school several girls actually telling me that to my face. Even when I’m on campus a lot of days I will see at least one girl I don’t even know staring at me or checking me out. I don’t want to sleep around and shag every girl I see but I do want to date several girls so I can see which girls I connect best with and who may be potential girlfriends in the future. But I won’t know unless I date several girls even if it’s only once or twice.
I’ve been approached a few times in clubs which even some of my friends who are attractive have never once had happen to them. I’m so confident talking to girls at pubs or clubs and can easily make them laugh at what I say even if what I’m saying isn’t funny. But I read so so much about how it’s socially unacceptable to go and talk to a girl on campus and how you’re only ‘allowed’ to talk to girls at societies or socials at the pub/clubs or in a party or other social setting with friends. There are a few girls I see on campus regularly who I think are really beautiful but I feel so shy about approaching them and would also worry about being creepy even though what I read online points to the more attractive equals less creepy which puts me at an advantage. The girls I have talked to in the past have said I’m a good listener and called me sweet and my ex said I was the sweetest guy she’s ever met and she’s never had a guy show her so much genuine care.
When I approach girls in clubs in the past these girls all get really excited and flirt with me. I don’t even need to try hard after I’ve initiated conversation but I’m worried it would be weird walking up to a pretty girl on campus just say hey are you off to class or something then ask her what she studies and take the convo from there. I’m worried other people will think it weird or that I’m harassing her or she’ll find it weird even though like I said my interactions in the past with girls have went positively but I’ve never cold approached on campus before. In first year I had several occasions I’d be coming home from the library and a random girl would smile or a group of girls would walk past and giggle looking at me. These are all signs of attraction but I don’t want to come off as weird. Like I’m tall probably 9/10 looks good personal hygiene I smile a lot I’m polite ask questions about girls but I have so much anxiety about this. I’m getting quite lonely now since I’ve been single a while and really want to connect with the opposite sex. And having sex isn’t what I’m looking forward to most it’s emotional connection and romantic intimacy. How do I approach girls I find cute on campus without overthinking so much and to increase my confidence?

How spectacularly gross for the women involved.

So it’s gross to speak to strangers. Ok.
