If you're incapable of cold approaching someone look within instead of blaming "society" at large. An especially large LOL at people who say that the cold approach is necessarily creepy. Extreme cope.
I've never understood the creepy thing.

Last week, some kunt at work tells me approaching a random girl during the day is 'creepy'. This was his first reaction after I showed him the pic of an 8/10 sloot, who gave me her number when I approached her during lunch.

I think most men don't know what they actually want. Do you want to go out and fuk hot women, or do you want to appease societal expectations of male behaviour? I think the media has turned most western men into absolute pussies.
Never take it personal, even when it is.

This is the misc. People will lol @ cold approaching saying it's creepy, pathetic and desperate and at the same time make the same old daily threads complaining about being FA/virgins or crying about online dating and women hypergamy when the only "contact" with women they have is in the most warped, cesspool, women favoring environment like online dating apps...

It is their very behavior and mindset which propagates their situation. A misery of their own choosing. I suppose it is comforting to some people (in misery) to simply say that the world is against them in some way.

A close friend of mine is an incel - he is tall, doesn't lift but isn't fat (reasonably low body fat), has a good head of hair. He is an incel now (he is 40), but when he was in his 20s he was the kind of guy that dated the hottest women - he cheated on some of them. Now at the age of 40 he goes on Tinder dates, says he feels no spark, and doesn't know what to do about it. I ask him what he thinks his problem is and, I quote, he says "People like me aren't meant to have happy lives". I tell him to his face that he's coping, that it is his choice of women that leads him down this lonely path, and he just shrugs. So, like we have seen in countless threads on the Misc lately, many of the people who identify themselves (and this group identity dynamic is a major part of their very problem) as incels or FA or whatever, aredoing this to themselves.

Those kunts are coping. I have cold approached many times in my life and in many contexts. Not once have I been told 'it is creepy'. It has also NOT worked out 100% of the time. When it doesn't work out it doesn't need to be a big deal, because if you make it a big deal you won't be open to the opportunity for success. In other words: being rejected in life and adopting a loser mentality will make everyone treat you as a loser. This is well documented and indisputable. But your colleague at work is one of those coping - tell me, is he married?

It's a good thing then for you, me, and many others here (often the vocal minority, unfortunately) that those people do not and cannot define this forum. I'm happy enough to see even a few other brahs (and I think some of the female Miscers have said they cold approached men before) praising this technique which, honestly, is part of most normal peoples' daily lives.

The creepy part is making a b-line to a woman at a stop sign or in a grocery store, forcing her into a clearly contrived conversation under the pretense of being friendly, and then immedietely hitting on her and insisting she go out w/ you or give you her phone number. AKA what most people think of when they think of cold approaching, and what you'll find if you search cold approach into youtube. Creepy af.

Big difference between that and having normal no strings attached conversations with strangers.

only on the misc is walking up to a complete stranger running errands and attempting to fuark being “social”.

cold approach is literally the last ditch resort for people who have been rejected their peers and have no other avenue to meet women. every full functioning member of society knows this, which is why you have to argue it in the first place. rule of thumb: if you have to argue something “isn’t creepy”, it’s creepy.

If it was creepy then it wouldn't have worked for so many guys in the this thread that have said they've done it before. You're only saying it's creepy because you're scared to do it. It's ok to be scared to do something out of your comfort zone. But you gotta push yourself out of your comfort zone in order to grow and get better. Using excuses like "it's creepy" isn't going to help you get a girlfriend.

How do you guys have this much time and energy to spend on women? Are most guys just full time chasing girls and everything else comes second? Don't get me wrong, several girls on rotation would be cool but I cannot fathom how I would have the time. My 1 gf already takes up every second of my free time.

Cold approaching is only creepy if you're ugly

Cold approaching only works if you're at least a 7/10, or tall

It's definetly somewhere near a hobby or a part time job on the scale of time consumption. Not going to lie dating is exhausting asf and arranging dates with chicks that have their own lifes and schedules diferent from yours is a headache sometimes but hey if you want to get laid you gotta put up with some bs first.

Real talk. The only thing women will find "creepy" is if you found her attractive, didnt say anything, and went home to masturbate to the memory of her

As opposed to just telling her

I only called it cold approach since I didn't know what other way to call it. Numerous times in this thread have I said that when I say cold approach I don't mean the whole PUA bullchit "cold approach".

When you are on your way from work/gym/whatever and maybe see a girl smiling at you ... start some small talk and see where it goes rather than sitting on the next empty bench like people normally do because they are terrified of any kind of social interaction with strangers. The next time you are in the gym lifting next to some chick why not make some remark or whatever rather than having your headphones in and avoiding talking or looking at anyone. ... This is what I mean by “cold approaching”.
I think this is a fantastic elaboration. I am a bit below average in terms of attractiveness, but I can promise that this won't end anywhere near as badly as some of you think. Unless you can't tell when a woman isn't interested, but keep forcing things anyway, then it will end badly lol.

I can assure some of you in this thread that even just a little bit of positive interaction with women far surpasses none at all.

I don't know how well this works for guys that don't have great social skills, despite being good looking. Girls these days have crazy high expectations with the advent of social media. Being good-looking will grab their attention in the short-term, but if you're not great at making them laugh and/or keeping them interested, they'll just move on to any other guy if they find a flaw in you.

It's pretty good if you get damn good at it. A guy I know is 5'5", asian and chubby. Dude goes out and picks up like its his job. I saw him cold approach 20 chicks at a uni campus, got a bunch of numbers and was seeing one of them a week later permanently.
6'2",220 currently
Goals:BW-240lbs then cut; B-315 S-405 D-500

It’s not diffrent to online really you still get nowhere with it they aren’t interested even if you get a number they’ll flake also define eyeing you? Pubs and bars are full of men and a sausage fest women just don’t wanna know it seems meeting women who are interested is impossible!

Nightclubs and work are no good.
Nightclubs can work if you are VIP because there is your social proof as you get eyeballed and silently judged. Already opened. But let us face it as few fellas will ever wear that wrist bracelet. And work is work. School, online and grocery store are the hot spots for cold approaching.
Online dating is really not that bad.
