How do I introduce myself to a girl I like?

[aei_haruko]

I am going to university next year, so that means that my opportunity to meet someone I like will be at its peak. I am a socially repressed gamer who goes to a private school with one girl in my class (she's not my type). Please help me and all the other people who'll read this post.

hey, waddya know, some guy who was like me. Okay, Here's what I did. So I was in a Barnes and Nobel out of state. Just arrived there, and was going straight for the manga section. So I see this AMAZING girl, like literally, she was like pulling me towards her with her mind. So I see tht she's reading naruto, and I say ( in a regular voice tone) "Oh, so theres another person on the planet who likes naruto eh?" ( worst pickup line EVER) so then she starts to talk about it like " Oh hey, gawd everybody at my school is a total preppy douchebag...etc" SO we talked, she realized that she was a year older, and That I seemed very mature ( remember, don't act like a looser/ suave douch, just act normal) So we got to talking, then the epitome of girl-ruiners showes up, my mother. So she says " Joe, we gotta go" So then she leaveas. I tell her " well, goodbye, I don't think I'll ever see you again..." So then she does something which to this very day has puzzled me, she gives me her phone number. So that night I call her, and at first I'm acting like an awkward baka. However after about a month I asked her out. Now I've been going out with this girl for 2 years this august, and in august I'm going to go down to florida, and I'm not sure wht to do for an anniversery present. Idk, I've been saving up a while, waddya think I should do?

This is what you need to do. Be very polite and see if you can offer any help with school work. Become decent acquaintances and "accidentally" say that she is smoking hot. If you make it seem like a total accident she will think it is cute once you are friends, set yourself to autopilot and ask her out. I say auto pilot because if you think about it to much while you're doing it, you'll screw up.

My penis is super big, some would say it could stretch from a-z on the keyboard... But I let the women do the deciding

ninjad Damn =.=

Im not sure if english keyboards are diffrent than swedish ones, but from A-Z there is 0,5cm, I dont think she would be impressed by that.

HA HA HA! This made my day!

The problem isn' the "Hi I'm ..." that part is easy. The hard part is being able to do that without sounding like your hitting on them. All my females friends I have met but being seated near or next to them. We introduced and helped each other with class work.

Introduce yourself simply by "Hi/Hey there, my name is !" and hold your hand out for a handshake.

Don't goon out and rush, just relax and be in control. Respond properly, prepare nothing.

"hello my name is {insert name here}"

done.

This. Everything else is cheese.

It's tricky and varies from girl to girl. But the most obvious one would be to relate to her music taste. If you have her facebook, scope out what music she loves. And copy-pasta the music onto your facebook until she notices. This will get her noticing you. Then you can get her on an IM or something and ask for a download link to said songs. This will set you up for a conversation starter.

To begin, do not listen to anything in the post I quoted. If she doesn't consider you a stalker after that, I bet a lot of other people will.

To introduce yourself to this girl, you just need to relax and not put her on a pedestal. She's not a deity to be worshiped, she's a girl you want to get to know. Go into it trying to make a new friend and introduce yourself as, well, yourself.

Never talk to a girl with your mindset being "I want that girl to be mine". The easiest way is to approach a girl with the mindset of "She's my best mate". Think about it. If you put up a front aand lie about who you are, she may be interested for a day or so but you can't stop yourself from being yourself. Girls are far more interested in talking than sex.

The easiest way to break the ice is to look and listen. Look at what she wears. What does it say about her? Does it show she likes the same music as you? The same colour you like? You just got a conversation starter. If you find something that suits your interests, say "Aw hey, you like [BAND]? I saw them in concert ages ago and it was awesome. Did you see them live at all?" or something like that.

Remember that conversation is far easier than trying to 'get her'.

Also, pay attention to body language. Does she look bored? Then say something along the lines of "You look as happy to be here as I am." Try to stay away from yes/no questions. It doesn't lead to conversation.
Does she look happy at something she just read or saw? Comment on that shit!

Example:
*Dog bites old man*
Girl: LOL!!!
You: Hah! So you like the whole masochism thing? Or did that guy swear at you or something?

Nerves are a killer in conversations. However, all you need is an icebreaker. Use those tips and see how much easier it is to talk and see where it goes from there.

Good luck!

I agree partly with you, but my experience dictates that at some point, it becomes necessary to move away from conversation and into a bit more physical interaction, lest she thinks you ARE trying to be her best friend. Also while trying to ease into conversation, dont completely forget that you do want this girl. You have a purpose in talking to her, and dont forget it. If you do, you run the risk of being friendzoned, which I personally despise. Not that it's bad to be in the friendzone, but if it's not your intention, it's torture. Overall though, dont lie. Never lie about something too major that you'll have to ever prove. Lie about little things that'll never come up if you want to, but if it's something big, stick to exaggerating the truth from time to time.
And agree with her all the damn time. Unless it's something that you just cannot agree with (my girlfriend likes to blaze and I dont), just agree with her mostly (my girlfriend likes Nirvana, so I say I like Kurt Cobain, even though I dont really like any bit of Nirvana).
Things like that, will come a bit later, but when introducing yourself, just ask about whatever she's doing, and try and make her talk more about it. Then throw in something little about yourself and keep talking. That's an effective first conversation.

try this one when you have one of those moments where you've run out of things to say
you: "hey, did you see that movie the other day?"
her: "which one?"
you: "pick one, I'm just making smalltalk.(add a 'can I buy you a drink?' when in a bar)"

It's worked for me and a few other friends. And I've been with the girl I tried this with for 2 years. As I said, it varies from girl to girl incase you missed that bit.

I'm sorry, but I feel like that entire plan is like lying to someone to get their attention. You're purposely putting artists they like on your page to get their attention instead of actually trying to have something in common with them? It's just sketchy. Congrats on it working out so spectacularly for you and your friends, but it's a little over the line for me.

If you get a girlfriend that means you'll have less time to play videogames. Why would you do that to yourself?

Just got a message from my girlfriend, she wants me to come on tf2 with her.

My girl friends a gamer, feels good bro.

OT: Same as how you would to any normal person.

But you could get to know some of her friends and hang her and her friends them to get to know her better then, eventually she may even ask you out.


Totally not from experience.

HI I am [Name] i am new here.


pickup lines dont work, ever.

 

[Dr Jones]

"There's a party in my pants. You're invited"
Of course if that dont work try this: "Hi my name is XXX"

 

[Secret world leader (shhh)]

Stick your dick in her face.
Kidnap her and eat her.
Make a mankini out of her skin.
All of the above.

I don't know much about girls...


...Break into her house before she gets home, lie on the bed naked with chocolates and flowers, sex her when she gets home.

First off, make

Unless his girlfriend's a gamer. Think about THAT.

And on that topic, introduce yourself to her like you'd introduce yourself to any other person you've wanted to be friends with. Become friends with the girl. Connect over common interests. In time, and I mean "in time" as in, you need to let this relationship prosper first, make your feelings known. The worst that can happen is her saying she doesn't want to reach that level of relations with you.

Most has already been said, but I would like to add something. Watch your stance, body language. Most people tend to walk with their head forward make sure you hold your chin higher then you normally would, keep your shoulders in line with your spine instead of forward and the back of your head in line with your ass. All that gives you a much stronger and confident impression.

Everything else like sharing interests and preferred media has already been said and yes it works.

 

[SilentCom]

As far as I understand, most relationships don't start out immediately so it's best not to come across as wanting. Introduce yourself as you would to anyone, let them know what kind of person you are and get to know them. If there is any interest on both sides, then it will proceed. If you introduce yourself to her in a way that suggests you just want to date her, then she may feel like you're desperate or something. At least I think that's how it works.

Be open and yourself.

If "yourself" is awkward, play on that, but don't be antisocial or your 4 years of university will be no different than your highschool years.

There's no easy answer, you need to just look passed your insecurities.

If you really can't get over yourself, meet some friends, go to pub night and get drunk, something usually happens.
