This is just my hypothesis, but I think that the problem with a lot of the incel types who start pickup but then get depressed and complain about how girls just flat out ignore them when they approach is because they're coming off as a creep. Even the attractive guys who are new to pickup might experience this. Girls are taught from an early age that they're in danger of getting raped and murdered by psychos, so naturally they're afraid of guys who come across as "creeps".

How to fix this:

  1. Smile. Just fucking smile. Genuinely, not a fake smile, show your teeth.
  2. It's better to approach a girl when she's hanging out with another female friend, that way she doesn't think you're trying to target her. Obviously it takes a lot more balls to approach a girl when she's with her friend, but that's the kind of confidence you need to develop. Protip: talk to her friend as well like you're having a three way conversation.
  3. Relax yourself, and tell jokes to make them laugh.
