So where I am when I see girls alone walking by themselves they're always in a hurry to go somewhere. Either they're on there way to meet someone, or go to work, or somewhere so they're walking very fast. My usual routine is to swing up right in front of them so they have to stop and be like "excuse me miss", which is when they notice me and take of their ear phones and are like "yes?", so then I open and talk to them for 30 seconds, but then they're like I'm on my way to meet my friend I can't talk right now, or that they're in a hurry to get to class or some excuse about where they're on their way to.

So what is your approach to girls who are in a hurry? I was thinking I need to throw in a time constraint like "can we talk for just one minute?" or "actually I was on my way to meet my friend but I just wanted to talk with you for one minute".
