is this cold approach?
If it feels like you're pulling teeth, it's best to just move on too a new girl who might actually be into you. When a girl is into you, it's always fairly effortless because she is pulling her weight in the convo. It's not supposed to be a one-way thing. It can't be. Some PAU's advocate 'plowing' where you are making cold reads and statemetns adn routines and trying to 'stick in' the interaction like an Alabama tick, but it's not worth it. YOu are only delaying the rejection and wasting time

Decided to a random girl on Snapchat. I've been told alot that I'm a dry texter and honestly I have not made any effor to talk to girls. And recently after turning 22, I realised I should have done all those. I'm really bad a communication skill in real life and text

Get off your phone and start approaching in real life.

I'm in a situation where I can only use text rn....
[–]revente 10 points11 points12 points 3 years ago (16 children) | Copy Link
Then do something more productive. Idk hit the gym, play video games, jerk off.
Wasting time on snapchat can hurt you more that help.

So jerking off like a fucking loser and getting virtual women is more productive than getting actual pussy?

yes, a man should have at least 22 orgasmes a month for decreasing his chances on prostate cancer. Orgasme, on what way does not matter, masturbate or what ever ..

It teaches you how to multi task. I’d recommend Lara Croft Tomb Raider.

Was just tryna practice talking to girls
[–]surfershane25 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Practice talking to anyone, if you can talk to anyone well you can talk to girls well…

Well one if she responds to you saying hello with that in return that is a start. When a man says something like how was your day? or I would really like to get to know you let's chat over coffee. Most girls love that, I would. No one really approaches people anymore and we need to do that more. Get off the phone! And good for you for doing so. And if she says why you approached her? wondering what she did to make you interested than just give her a compliment. In my opinion we just want someone to make you feel special and validated. You picked her out of all of the people in the crowd cuz she stood out to you and just tell her why that was. You know all the romantic stuff. If you get to coffee just ask her what she likes and go from there. It is an interview but how else do you get to know someone. Then after a few dates knock some boots. 😉 perfect plan in my eyes. 😀

Doesn’t translate.
Even if there are some girls chatting sith you they’re doing that because they’re bored and want your validation.
Not because they’re attracted to you.

Absolutely true

You wanna fuck them in real life
So also start talking and proceeding in real life
[–]mjornir 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
then ask to meet in person and go on a date
[–][deleted] 28 points29 points30 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Do this : Ask something about her and follow up with your perception about it, or stories about it. Don't wait for her to ask. Do this 2-3 times. 4th time ask something about her and don't say anything about it yourself, wait for her to ask and leave it a bit silent. See what happens. If she doesn't ask, dump her on the spot, too self involved

Here is your answer ^
[–]CobblerConfident5012 8 points9 points10 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Something that helped me with general shyness in life when I was younger both platonically and romantically was learning the difference between asking people about themselves and ELICITING things from people. Instead of saying “what do you like about studying chemistry ?” (Which can come off as kind of interviewy and not casual enough) I would say “I bet you dig getting to mix up all kinds of potions “ etc.
Instead of asking a person “how much do you make working here?” And getting a “why? That’s a weird/rude question to ask…” Try “I heard you guys get paid 3 grand a month , that must be nice” “Whoa I don’t know who told ya that we barely make 2 after taxes…”
It leaves more room for people to respond and follow up after the point.

where did you learn such neat things from?
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I would say that you need to lay out topics that are relatable and trigger emotions. Pass on all generic questions. Ask her how she feels about something. Many girls crave talking about relationships, sociology, psychology, daily life. Make your conversations easy-going and topics pleasurable. You don't have to hurry to get to know things about her, they will get uncovered naturally with time. Focus on finding connection between you and get that energy high.
As it comes strictly to texting, I feel that the latest trend among girls concerns questions that catch them off-guard. These are simple, unusual, relatable, little silly, but still open up a gate for funny and emotional conversation.

Examples of off-guard questions? :)
[–]HHaTTmasTer 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
There is a reason people call it "game", get to know the common strategies and start applying, read her signals, react to them, don't worry about figuring out if she is worth it on the first, second, or even third date, doing so totally kills the mood, have some stuff to talk about, once you keep talking to her you will pick up the small bits of info you are looking for, and will react to it, she will pick this and adapt, as so should you be aware.
Seduction language is extremely dysfunctional by design, it is not like trying to make math or make logic conclusions.

make assumptions on her vibe, clothes, anything, rather than go interview mode
[–]Charge36 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You can't really make some one do anything but you can improve your odds by trying to steer the conversation to her passions. If she mentions a hobby or interest, dig in and ask her about it.
[–]Woujo 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Your goal isnt to learn about her. Its to have a fun conversation. Find a subject you and her both enjoy and talk about that.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Probably stop doing that, try telling something about yourself, also, try open ended questions

[–]ReadWriteReddit33 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Most people like to talk about themselves. If the conversation isn’t flowing (so to speak), your chemistry most likely isn’t compatible. Simple questions about who they are or things they’re interested in, are usually good ice breakers.
[–]Majestic_Meal_5655 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Girls who give this kind of energy are OBVIOUSLY trying to NOT talk to you. Catch a hint much 😆
You can start a conversation. If she’s interested she’ll engage and if not, she won’t

Like TyKwonDoe always says go DEEP not wide
[–]JGoonSquad 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
When a woman likes you she pretty much calls the shots. She will flirt with you, go out of her way to talk to you, keep the convo going, etc. Odds are she isn't attracted enough to you.
[–]jackisterr 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
fuckin talk about yourself too man. make a statement!

[–]AssistTemporary8422 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
If she isn't engaging with you, she just isn't interested and likely never will. I use a combination of humor and open ended questions.
[–]No_Drama7787 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Read the book of how to make anyone talk.
[–]ChickolasCage 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
If a woman wants to talk to/sleep with/otherwise interact with you, she will help make it happen. Keep looking until someone does the helping. It’s just a numbers game.
