You see a girl sitting alone. You look at her a few times and she glanced back. Both of you are alone within the area. You think she looks good and would maybe want to get to know her.

Now comes the choice. Which is better for staying sane and mgtow?

  1. being a shy guy who genuinely likes a girl. Gets up and try talk to her without compromising anything. More like just getting to know her and see if she's interested back.

Or

  1. just sit there and pretend like you didn't see her and then missed the opportunity as she walked past. In a way you avoided her by not having confidence but it saves you the trouble of pursuing anything further.

Which option would be good mentality wise if you're in that situation. Better to strike up a conversation and show confidence knowing it probably won't be good or just straight up whimp out but have the ease of mind not developing anything further?
