Lol at overanalyzing it

you go to random girl and you say nice shoes or nice dress and you walk away....Most probably she'll be startled why a stranger is giving weird comment and leaving - in 2 seconds she'll be back to her normal circle.

Exception is if you're a Chad yourself then you get a chance she might go tell her friends "guess what, Chad there said i have nice shoes"

Chances are, if you're analyzing the situation , you're not a Chad

LOL at approaching random women. Reeks of desperation and low social status. I've never cold approached a woman and never will because it's sad. Even more sad approaching them at bars over the age of 25.

Sorry bro it just doesn't work that way.

It's all about status and in that situation you have NONE. Since you're 5'5, you don't get physical status. How about friends? Walk in with your group, establish presence then slowly mingle. No friends? Walk around and try to get familiar with the different groups there (including talking with the guys) and hopefully one of the groups will accept you.

Cold approach, no status, shotgun approach = instant rejection. No girl in her right mind will leave the security of her group to go with someone like that...

This is good advice for a soyboy / bottom boy. Just wear tight pants and let the men come to you.
I just want to share the knowledge I have obtained throughout my life and hopefully change someone's life.

Never ask if they have a boyfriend

Ignore if they say they have one

Make sure you got something to say

You give a fuk, you have to not give a fuk. Bitches are retarded remember that.

If one sees you get rejected the others will reject because bitches are retarded. This applies to rolling solo, you need a squad. Not miscer types but dudes that can pull. Than it doesn’t matter if one rejects, changes the whole dynamic.


Also you are 5’5 so you absolutely need a squad of Killa’s to roll with it.

You can definitely turn it into an autistic filled situation if you're an awkward c*nt but that's not really my problem. Fix your awkwardness. Giving compliments to someone isn't remotely off putting if you have even a basic level of social aptitude.

It sounds like you're just awkward bro, and if so no approach is going to make you seem less awkward. You have to fix the awkward vibe you give off before doing anything else.

Like I said above, if you are weird or awkward then there's no special approach that won't make you seem weird or awkward.

That has nothing to do with giving someone a compliment. Complimenting people goes over really well to start a conversation. But if you're an awkward c*nt you're going to be an awkward c*nt no matter what. That's really not my problem.

If you try this and the girl gets creeped out it's not the compliment, it's how you're doing it. I can't fix that through the internet, sorry bro. Either body language, or tone, or something else you're putting out there that's ruining it. Not one person has ever said I got turned off by a stranger complimenting me (assuming it's done in good taste and the compliment you give isn't crossing a line somewhere, i.e. nice ass).

All that awkwardness talk is you basically just projecting, doubt you even know / are aware what that is.

And lmao just lmao at randomly walking up to a girl in a club, spouting off one line and walking away and thinking you're some sort of badass when the reality is you're autism level 1000 to everyone watching.

Only in a miscer's imagination is the above a cool thing to do.

They usually say thanks. I walk away or turn away and go back to my business.

I give it 20 minutes or so, in this time they either find their way to me or if they don’t I will bump back into them “accidentally” and strike up an actual conversation. Ask her name and go from there.

By doing this they’re already somewhat comfortable with you and are more likely to engage
I'd do something like this OP, rather than randomly walking up cold to people. You need super high confidence and energy to do that and even then you'll get blown out a few times.

I talk to randoms all the time when I go out. To keep it simple, when I talk to people it's from an angle of helping everyone have a better time. I get in a social vibe with my friends and then open convo with groups around us. I go to breweries so I ask what they're drinking, and tell them about this kick ass spot in town with awesome beer and food they should check out, introduce them to my friends who do/live/are going somewhere awesome.

Once you start chatting you may end up striking a chord and mention something they have alot of interest in. People who are great at socializing can dig that out of people effectively. If cute girls are in the group try to bring them into the conversation, because sometimes people will just sit there while you talk to the person you started convo with, and then the convo dies because you're basically hijacking their friend.

Also try not to go to traditional "upscale" or "nightclub" type bars. Music is usually too loud and people act like it's a club (super defensive/bitchy). Try breweries or something like a beer garden where people aren't acting like stuck-up, wannabe *******s.

Who says it's autistic though? It depends on the person, if he's acting awkward and autistic yeah would be weird, but if he's chill it's all good.

I already know what you're thinking....you're thinking he means walk up, blurt "I like y-y-your shoes" and then 180 out of there before she can react.

Stop making it as autistic as possible in your head. You can compliment someone without looking like an FA because you were genuinely interested. I've done it, and I've had hbb's do it to me. But I guess they're autistic too.
