I usually chat a girl up in produce. Dumb but funny questions. Grab two bad looking onions or something and ask "do these look ok to you?"
Maybe act like you have no idea what you're doing.
Or ask if they've seen X item. I can never find that. This place is a maze!

I tried cold approaching back when I was working at a grocery store without my uniform on not even to get their number but just see how they responded and my conclusion is that the girl has to be well into you from the first glance for it to work - a lot of people find grocery shopping stressful and try to get in and out as quickly as possible so I think you’d have a way better chance at retail stores
[–]ChoppedBelAir 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
See you're thinking about JUST cold approaching. I'm using normal venue contextual conversation and then when it seems positive, applying a bit of charm to turn it into a flirty chat.
You can chat more easily and without your agenda being obvious by engaging in normal conversation first. And if they don't really open up with that you can always walk away as it was just a convo about produce
[–]FaithInStrangers94 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Keep it situational and indirect, don't go in the grocery store with the intention of approaching women but if you happen to see someone you could vibe with, approach in a smooth manner

does it change with the attractiveness of the woman? probably a lame beginner question but i’m new

No because it's a grocery store not a night club, approach the attractive girl the same way you'd talk to the 50 year old cashier at the checkout
[–]surfershane25 153 points154 points155 points 4 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link
I’m not saying don’t ever approach at a grocery store, but it’s not likely going to be a high success area compared to a bar or social activity. But if you must… Wait til she’s in the fruit section and say nice melons really loud while holding some honey dews.

Go up to her and say "excuse me, you are ridiculously cute".
I go direct almost 100% of the time regardless of scenario. Makes almost no difference from what I've seen (I used to go indirect/situational, my results are the exact same now that I go direct).
Or do whatever indirect/situational opener you want, and then after like 10-15 seconds say "I'm kidding I actually don't care about blah blah, I just thought you were cute and didn't know what to say/wanted to talk to you".
It mostly doesn't matter what you use for your opener. The large majority of factors that determine whether you will hook up with a girl have nothing to do with how you open her. Things that have a bigger impact.
Is she even available or is she involved with some other guy?
Is she even in a mood/place in her life where she's open to meeting new guys?
Is she at least somewhat minimally attracted to you?
Are you guys compatible on a personality/vibe level?
Will she flake?
If she is open to meeting someone, does she want the same type relationship you want?
All of these things are much more important than how you open her. Here's a thought experiment:
Imagine the girl you are approaching is open to meeting someone new, is in a good mood, is physically attracted to you, likes your specific personality, wants the same type of relationship you want, and actually fully intends on coming on a date. Do you think all those things could be true but because you open with a situational opener vs a direct opener vs opinion opener etc that all the sudden those things are completely negated and she now won't meet up with you?

They're just scared or not good at it. I've gotten numbers from girls at bus stops with multiple other people watching and the bus right about to pull up. It's all about your confidence and ability to handle tension.

[–]Ur_X -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Alright I have a question for you on indirect va direct game.
Usually whenever I go for direct “you’re cute” all I get is a smile and a “thanks”. How am I supposed to keep the interaction going? I feel is full sperg to go “go out with me” right after that.
What’s your follow up?
[–]Total_Obligation_371 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
You can just follow the basic format in my cold approach post.
Compliment
She says thank you
Ask her what she's up to/what she's up to that day
She'll respond
Respond to what she said in some way, you can make a little joke or something if you want (but don't feel forced to, if it's too stressful or unnatural at the moment, just one response/comment about what she said is fine)
Follow rest of the cold approach format.
The point of sticking with that format is so that you have a structure to latch onto that you can get comfortable with and that is repeatable. Anytime you learn something new, you generally have to follow a very strict structure until you get good at it. And then once you are comfortable with that structure, you can Branch out and add other things onto it. Learning game is the same as learning any other skill.
Once you are comfortable with that basic format, you can focus then on inserting your own personality into it. And then you slowly grow from there into having your own conversational style.

Dude how do you approach women in groups? Same approach? Or something different?
[–]Total_Obligation_371 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Same as if she's by herself. Except instead of saying what are you up to, say what are you guys up to. And then if one of the other girls says anything to you, you can acknowledge it and respond and then just go back to talking to the girl you want. You don't need to entertain or keep the attention of the rest of the group. In night game you do to a certain extent, but not day game.
[–]IndianBureaucrat 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Thanks bruh, I’ll try that.
Im mainly trying to get better at night game, in bars/discs. If you have any suggestions for that, I’m listening.
[–]Particular_Visual531 37 points38 points39 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
all of these work:
"nice melons", "nice jugs of milk", "my banana is much bigger than any of those", "why are you looking in that butcher's case for meat, I got all the meat you need right here", "looking for something spicer than those jalapenos tonight", any jokes about how tuna smells, any jokes about cherries.
All of these are tried and true ways to score tons of women at the grocery store. While they are looking for the coupon for that box of cereal, women are vulnerable to almost any pickup line from a confident guy, so that means your shopping cart should be full of canned meats (sign of confidence) and lots of smelly cheeses (demonstrates you're a foreign guy with a vague European accent or that you're an artist).
Good luck with your grocery shopping! After trying all of these, let me know how it went or if you permanently switched to instacart because you were banned from the store (which is just the manager showing his weakness, they are always going to hate on geniuses like us!)

Honestly I’ve found that going out with the intention of meeting a woman never works. Women can smell that shit from a mile away. But if you just go into a conversation with no expectations and see where it can go and be yourself, it’ll go a lot smoother.
[–]Westernleaning 8 points9 points10 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Just go up, ask her where the mayonnaise is. She'll tell you she doesn't know or she doesn't work there, then go from there. Btw day gaming shouldn't JUST be the grocery store. It's pretty much anywhere you go during your day. Approaching and speaking to people shouldn't be difficult. It takes me about 2-3 months of moving to a new neighborhood to know most of the people there on a "hey how are you" basis.
[–]Conscious-Trifle-137 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Not everyone is socially skilled… just like not everyone is good at sports or gets good grades easily. It can be difficult for some people to even say hello to a classmate, others have 30 min convo with strangers naturally. Instead of acting like someone should be able to do everything you can, help people who struggle with thing you’re good at….
[–]Westernleaning -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Uhhh… yeah, that’s why they come to Reddit ask questions and get answers? Pointing out the help process like it’s a bad thing is unhelpful. Social skill #1 is be positive, no one likes negativity (well almost no one, you seem to like pointing out someone answering a question is a bad thing). :)
[–]thatshinobiboiii 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Yurp. I can’t even talk to people on online games :)
Trying and failing is how you succeed. You just gotta adopt that mindset. It’s painful, but you learn so much.
When I was in 7th grade I had no friends. I sat at a lunch table with some popular kids and I wouldn’t say much. They didn’t know me I just sat down haha. They were hilarious. After a few months I started to talk some more, but I had no sense of humor like theirs. They let me in and I was kinda the loser in the group. But I was able to practice my humor and after a few years I had figured it out.
Fast forward 13 years later and I’m now the one who is popular with everyone. Insane turnaround possible only cause I failed and failed and turned those failures into a learning experience. I’ve failed embarrassingly bad so many times you wouldn’t believe it. And now people think I’m a champion.

Not an expert, by far. But I'd say something situational after you get some IOI. If you're in the chocolate aisle, something like "This chocolate is too good.", poiting at a particular brand you like. You can also ask for help "Do you know where the chocolate is?". But you have to follow up on that and make conversation, otherwise, the lady will help you and move on.

It doesn't really matter if the girl accepts the conversation or not.
He already got what he could from you and that is overcoming his fear towards communicating with strangers.
Also, you wouldn't walk away if he was handsome and the man of your life :)
[–][deleted] 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (31 children) | Copy Link
Please don't speak on my behalf about how I would react on social interactions 🙃 it's very unbecoming. What does "the man of your life" even mean?
Also this is why I started wearing ear buds when I shop, I got sick of being approached when I want to be left alone. It still doesn't work because someone will tap my shoulder to get my attention 😑
[–]Aldamis 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (23 children) | Copy Link
Your perspective is fair, but I wouldn't assume every girl would have the same reaction. I'm sure there's plenty of women who wouldn't mind being approached in the grocery store at all.
We're complex creatures so all advice from a particular person should be taken right a grain of salt.
[–][deleted] 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link
I think that's the trouble with these dating advice posts, advice isn't one size fits all yet some people act like it is. What one person finds charming another may find repulsive lol and you'll never know until after 🤣
[–]Aldamis 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Lol exactly.
[+][deleted] -7 points-6 points-5 points 4 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
my advice fits all because let's say that a girl found a man charming and he figured it out but couldn't do shit because he feared from rejection and from the girl's response.
I have met with girls that made the first move towards me before but they are so rare so that can't always be expected.
I only disagree with you on "love at first sight" because this is what the real love is.
men should find a woman who will love them so dearly.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
my advice fits all
Your advice does not fit all because I already said it wouldn't work on me. There is no piece of advice that's "one-size-its-all". You cannot think your advice is above the rest
That is not what real love is, I would know, I've been in love and loved a few men in my lifetime. Love at first sight is really attraction/lust at first sight. You can't love someone you don't know. Love is built, not instantaneous.
This is true but like I said love is built over time. I'm not going to love a complete stranger I met while food shopping. It's just not going to happen and it makes no sense why you'd think that was possible.
[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points0 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
My advice wasn't about "do it in order to get the girls" but to help him overcome his fears.
He is a shy guy.
I disagree.
I think our definition of love might be different so there's no need to debate.
People don't see anything other than their lover when they are in love.
This can't be built.
This is just you.
There are girls who do.
You won't love a complete stranger but you won't love your friend neither.
Most of my previous girlfriends had that "love at first sight" unlike you and that's the reason I went after them.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Yes, but you can't love somebody that you don't know. It's literally impossible. If you don't know anything about that person then it's just an attraction. It's not love. It's not like a cartoon where Sylvester sees the cat and is no longer focused on anybody else. That is so unrealistic on how to look at love. You can't just look at somebody, fall in love, and no longer be aware of anybody else in the world. It's such an immature mindset to think about love this way.
What they experienced was not love at first sight, it was attraction at first sight. You can't fall in love with somebody that you don't know.
[–][deleted] -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

[–]Niceguy456 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
This is so ridiculous that you are arguing about this and getting downvotes.
Every girl you're going to ask is going to say that daygame and approaching girls in the grocery store is inappropriate, why is this? It's simple, cause most times the guys can't take rejection and get rude so girls get bad experience from it, which is what they'll remember.
Yet, when this handsome, charming and confident guy approaches them and sweeps them off their feet, they will be over the world with joy and excitement, that he chose to approach her.
Also, confidence is the most attractive trait that girls love in a guy. And love/dating favors the bold men who actively approaches women as they go about their day. I have to emphasize the "go about their day" part, as going out with the sole intention to approach women comes of as extremely desperate and needy, which girls sense instinctively.
Agree 💯

Any thoughts like "oh geez I hope I'm not bothering her" is just an excuse for us to not walk up and talk to her.

Lol shut up bro this is a huge over generalization.
You realize you can approach girls and talk to them without framing it in a sexual/direct context. Infact what people consider to be "day game" or cold approach is really just making situational conversation with strangers in a smooth and charming way.
Cold approach doesn't necessarily mean going around for hours in a mall or on the street spam approaching women and hitting on them out of nowhere.
You need to change your perspective a little and realize you're severely limiting yourself if you swear off talking to women in public.

I already have one but go on 🤣. I didn't fall for him with "love at first sight", it happened over a period of a few months. We had immediate attraction and chemistry, but the relationship took time before I realized he was the love of my life.

Well for guys like myself (25, work from 1-9:30pm M-F among old married men, live in a neighborhood with a LOT of younger women), to me anyplace is fair game to cold approach. I have next to no dating experience because I was a pussy in high school and college. Now when I have a chance, I can't talk myself out of "taboo" environments.
Hobbies and social outlets are few and far between, and are not always going to be a place where you'll meet your significant other. I've seen my friends do it, but this has not been the case for me.
Bars and clubs are interesting, but they tend to attract super extroverts, and I'm not really into that scene for a variety of reasons.
And dating apps are extremely flakey, and I can't seem to get my pictures right, so my results are never worth anything. I almost never get matches or likes, but in person I'm not ugly by any stretch of imagination.
Of course I'd like something to happen gradually, but unfortunately I think it's just unrealistic for me. Becoming friends with a girl will sap any potential romance. People meet and jump in the bed within the first week, and even if they don't, I would imagine it wouldn't be easy to build romantic chemistry.

I never said there's anything wrong with doing a cold approach, I just don't think food shopping is the best place to do it lol. I was just giving my two cents on my opinion of the issue, I don't think there's anything wrong with the approach itself. They just need to be aware that it won't be successful for every woman. I also don't agree with this person's opinion on love at first sight, because there's no such thing as love at first sight. You can't love somebody that you don't know.
People meet and jump in the bed within the first week, and even if they don't, I would imagine it wouldn't be easy to build romantic chemistry.
Sleeping with somebody doesn't mean that you love them. And sleeping with somebody within a week doesn't mean you can't develop a romantic connection later on either. Correlation does not equal causation

my last girlfriend said the same crap to me before showing her desire for marriage.
I don't want marriage so we have different expectations from a relationship.
I don't regret dumping her.
What about lesbian women? Not every girl thinks the same bruh.
it must be princess charming for lesbians :)
Of course that not every girl is the same.
I’m sure you can find an example of someone who met a girl at a grocery store. You can probably find an example of some dude meeting a girl in every type of place.
I met with a girl in a public bus and that's no different than a grocery store.
You’re far more likely to see success when you approach women in settings that are more geared towards flirting— like a bar or clubs.
Of course.

Yeah no, who in the hell is trying to pick someone up in a grocery store? I'm in there after working and just want to get home and cook some dinner.
If a random ass dude walked up to me and said "Hello how are you?" I'd look at you like you were weird and give the most bland "Um, ok." and keep shopping, and going out of my way to avoid going down the same aisle.

If two people make eye contact and maintain that eye contact, and you feel confident enough to shoot your shot, you do what you want. I'm talking about dudes asking women "Hey how was your day" when she's just trying to figure out what brand of olive oil to buy.

But it's not "just a conversation" if you have motives of getting her number. If you are literally just being friendly and expecting nothing else, then fine.
My whole problem here is that OP calls it "daygame at a grocery store". Like goddamn, some people are just trying to get some fruit and get out. If you or OP want to pick up women, do it at a place where socializing with strangers is expected. Go to the beach, take your dog to the dog park, go to a sports bar, go shoot some pool at a lounge, etc.

And this is probably why you’re single. You automatically assume that they’re hitting on you. Maybe they had a genuine question, maybe they’re trying to get out of their social comfort zone, maybe they simply just need someone to talk to right now. By you assuming that they’re hitting on you you’re essentially locking yourself out from social interaction.
The world right now is so messed up to the point that if anyone talks to anyone it’s labeled as being weird. How do you think that our ancestors evolved, constantly figuring things out for themselves? If they did that we would still be hitting things with rocks in the middle of a jungle, I wouldn’t be typing this out on my $1300 piece of technology. The way our ancestors made friends and met their spouses. Was by talking to people… some people are so narrow minded
[–]oriana94 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I would do the same if I was single. But I'm not. So what's your point. If you have a question say "hey I have a question" not "hey how are you"? Because I am in the store to get my shit and leave. I'm glad people meet that way, that's not what I'm saying. To judge others, just because most women wouldn't stop to talk to a stranger doesn't make this world fucked up. It's fucked up that we can't talk to someone without assuming that, isn't it?? I think so too. That's not our fault. We're literally treated that way, all the time. We do not owe you a conversation. You sound narrow minded as well.
[–]timetobbetter -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I don’t think I said we were entitled to a conversation. Just as humans communication is the moral of how we evolved. Granted the “how are you” vs “hey I have a question” is what should be addressed, that goes hand in hand with the “um, ok” walks away vs “I’d really not like to talk right now have a nice day.” Kindness in my book should be first, I’m only hostile or disrespectful to people if they disrespect me first. If they are an ass then he’ll yeah I’m gonna defend myself but just because you had a bad interaction with the last person who you met doesn’t mean you need to treat all people like that. Every person is a unique character in your life. I have a lot to learn still, I’m not claiming I know everything. If I’m narrow minded you helped me by giving your opinion allowing me to open up my life to other options. Communication in every phase of life is a two way street, many people; myself included, sometimes forget that and hurt their own self as well as others in the process
[–]zzzrecruit 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
No one genuinely asks a random stranger how they're doing out of the blue like that. If they do it, they're just trying to gauge the receptivity of the person they're trying to hit on. You can get out of here trying to pretend you'd innocently do this with absolutely zero motive. As if I'm going to tell a random man about my day, and as if he really cares lol.
I am single because I'm not actively looking for a partner.
I dont WANT social interaction in a goddamned grocery store lol. I do plenty of socializing in places that are meant for socializing with new people. In a grocery store, I'm just trying to grab the shit I forgot to get when I planned my dinner the day before lol.
[–]timetobbetter -2 points-1 points0 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I’m not saying there’s zero motive. What I’m saying is the motivation backing the initial interaction may be different. You see it as getting hit on. The other person may not be trying to hit on you at all. They may have been trying all day to talk to someone or have someone talk to them because they’ve been cooped up in their house for the last week after their dog died and they were 5 minutes away from taking their own life just to finally get out of their house and take their future into their own hands by searching for someone to vent to because they have no one else. The moral of what I’m trying to say is that you don’t know their history. Everyone has a different outlook on society, and mine is that no matter what the person looks like I still have a conversation with them. If it’s five minutes out of my day to acknowledge someone who is trying to communicate with me. I owe it to myself to be a decent human being for them because I know that if I were in the same boat I’d probably be out doing the same thing. I’ve had girls flirt with me who I had no plans of pursuing, not once did I say “um, ok” and walk away, is that how your parents raised you?
In the end, it’s probably less than 5 minutes of your time, we as humans spend that scrolling on Facebook or typing comments on Reddit. If we can have these interactions whose to say a <5 minute real life interaction is too much for our daily schedule.
That’s good that you aren’t actively looking, that’s when people come into your life who you’d least expect. Also that’s how my parents met, they weren’t even looking and then one day they met.
It’s okay to be introverted and not crave social interaction everywhere. One thing I’ve found is that when you get a friend group most people stagnate in life. They get comfortable being comfortable. Growth occurs from adapting to uncomfortable situations. That’s why we enjoy rollercoasters so much. The adrenaline, the unknown, the anxiety associated with it. It’s all feelings just like meeting someone new.
You seem very set in your opinion so I won’t try to change it but ask yourself this one question. If you were in the store and someone asked you a question not pertaining to you but simply about a recipe that they were trying to perfect and couldn’t get right would you have reacted any differently?
[–]focus_flow69 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
Great, then move along.
You'd look at me like I'm weird, I'd look at you like you are rude and actually happy you self selected yourself out.
Life goes on. I'm free to approach and you are free to reject.

You'd really walk up to a random woman, as a man, and say, "Hi, how are you doing?" Without any prior contact? You don't see how that could be weird or alarming to a woman?
Look man, she's just trying to but groceries. Go to a bar like a normal person to pick up women.
[–]focus_flow69 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
Yes, I'd walk up to any random person, man or woman and be happy to say hi how are you.
Yes I understand how some people can be alarmed or weirded out. I also understand there are some people who won't care and be curious as to what I have to say or who I am. There will also be some people who are indifferent. There will be some people who are excited someone approached them because they never have a chance to meet strangers.
Anyone can perceive anything to be weird in any context. I'm not going to live life catering to the whim of other people's perception of reality. Different people have different perceptions, there's too many to cater to, so instead I focus on the positive perceptions. Seriously.
Don't like it then say hi, sorry I'm just busy shopping and not interested in chatting and walk away like an adult.
We cannot live in a society where people are scared to even say hi to strangers.
Get a grip on reality.
[–]igk2 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Yes, I would. I've gotten dates this way. And on dates women would tell me that I made their day when I approached them. I understand that you personally don't like it, but there's no universal indicator on whether a woman is receptive to being approached or not.

Approaching women at grocery store is really not that different from let's say in the street.
Here's an example of street conversation.
You notice this chick with amazing tattoo.
Tell her you were thinking about getting tattoos like that. Ask for direction to the nearest tattoo shop.
When she's done, ask if she's a student or something and may be what's she's doing in the town.
Casually drop that you're here with your friends and is looking for a good place to hang out. Ask for recommendation.
May be then you can ask her whether she's an outgoing person or not and proceed with "Actually Let me buy you a beer and I'll show you my tattoo." Hand her your phone.
It just takes a minute or two. The conversation is organic and natural. I mean you can't have more natural conversation than this with a stranger AND get her number.
So yeah, you can try similar pattern on grocery store. Just try and it'll come to you.
[–]CaliGalOMG 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I agree with others it say most people on a mission at the grocery store so I would skip it unless you get some flirtatious signs.
Also, to me if a man is picking up on women in grocery stores he’s going to do that all the time. It’s almost as bad as the guys in cars yelling at me driving or walking dogs or jogging, if they can get your number; that’s not the kinda guy I’d want to deal with.
[–]TrueBroccoli8 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Here's some fool-proof lines for you:
“I just come to the fruit section to talk to random, very good-looking people that stand near it"
"We can meet here next week to talk about the broccoli if you want"
"Cotton candy grapes. They taste just like them I’m not kidding."
"It’s really just so I have a story for my sister and my niece when I see them. Because I think we’re gonna talk about the grapes."
"I’m already ruining this, so I’m just going to keep going. Do you think I could have your number"
And... then close with this.... "So..... I cooked us something. If you’re open to trying it....."

Weird twist of words. I’ll argue with the incel tho no problem. Mr Andrew tate enjoyer.
The context of day gaming at a grocery store is implicitly implying being at said place for the intention of approaching women.
That in its purest form is predatory behavior.
Your small example doesn’t exonerate the act of “day gaming” and inquiring about the best advice to do so.
Considering I found this sub a week ago because someone was reading the top posts. There’s not a human here with an ounce of game id trust to listen to.
Specially if they consider Andrew tate a credible source for advice for men.

[–]Thin_Protection5616 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Ok, sure. I wouldn't go to a grocery store simply to practice daygame or to have a session. But, if I see a girl at a grocery store that I want to talk to, I wouldn't moralize my way out of it.
Simply put, in my mind, women like being approached by a guy like me. Considering that the majority of the girls I've slept with are those I've met in public (i.e., daygame rather than night, online, or social circle game), I'd say this view is reasonable.
On the other hand, every guy who's ever told me that approaching women in the public is wrong or creepy... Well, they typically have rock bottom notch counts or are in the middle a multi-year long dry spell. Who should I trust. My own experience (and that of the other guys I know who do well by daygame) or cowards who hide behind morality and don't get laid. Tough call.
So let's recap:
You don't game. You only learned about game a week ago. And you think your opinion on game is worthwhile. Makes a ton of sense.

Like the other guy said, you are the one who sits back and hopes that women will just fall on your lap. That used to be me. I've become proactive now and are seeking them out. "Don't talk to strangers" is a load of shit. "Don't make people uncomfortable" is silly.
I walk through the grocery store multiple times a week to pick up stuff. I see average or even conventionally unattractive guys with hot women all the time, and I doubt they're siblings. Do you really think they all met via an app? And even it was through a social circle, does every guy have to ability to maintain one? No way.

No, I view it as my attempts to make conversation in the grocery store. We have become isolated as a society and I'm not falling into that trap. I don't give a damn who I make uncomfortable. You are saying this as a way to cope with the fact that you would never have the balls to do it yourself.
"Making conversation" is not illegal. Hell, outright telling a girl you think she's cute isn't even harassment or sexual harassment if you don't keep pushing the subject when you've been rejected. At least where I am in the US, the First Amendment allows me to (for the most part) approach someone without fear of retribution.

It's not always possible to get eye contact first, so I wouldn't call it off just because of that. When I cant get eye contact, I start by saying "excuse me" to get her attention. Its a soft way to start things up.

Doing less approaches because of unideal eye contact/circumstances may increase your "success rate" but it doesn't increase your actual amount of success.
Scenario 1: you approach 30 out of 30 girls, and managed to get 5 numbers.
Scenario 2: You approach 20 out of 30 girls, because the other 10 did not have sufficient eye contact first. Those 10 might have been less likely to number close, but they still might have. You can probably see how doing less approaches doesn't increase the amount of numbers you get.
[–]TechnoGeek423 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I haven’t had a huge amount of luck with this. It’s sort of like yoga class. Lots of good looking single women, but they’re on a mission and in my experience not always in a mood to be approached.
The caveat on this is look for eye contact and especially a smile. If she holds it longer than a second, you’re in. Also you can quickly tell if a girl is taken in a grocery store. She’ll be there with her partner.
A woman alone in a grocery store is very likely single.
Happy approaching!

Do you wear a ring? And if so, are you open to being approached?
Yes, i wear my wedding ring.
I used to be friendlier because I enjoyed people and enjoyed being a nice person, but I still ignored obvious creeps. Which makes me think, this is another component to it - there are far more sketchy people now than there used to be. (OC & LA County). Now I mostly keep my head down and I don’t even want to be approached by women. It’s scary.
If there’s a girl around your age and she’s smiled at you on her own, then I suppose it doesn’t hurt to say Hi. And I wouldn’t use a line. I’d just say “what are you up to?” or say “I’m going to go to Daves Pool Bar around 10, I okay for quarters but I’ve only won 2.” Something light, not trying to be tricky.

If anyone's reading this, don't be discouraged by what this guy's saying. You come off as an overthinker. It's not that complicated. I met my soon-to-be wife in a gym parking lot lol just be calibrated enough to let her know you're a normal guy after you've expressed interest. Be respectful. If she's not feeling it, it's really all good. Thank her for her time, wish her a good day, that's it.
And I think it’s fair to say that 99% of women would prefer to not be hit on at a grocery store. Whether or not you think they should have this opinion is irrelevant, because at the end of the day, they do have this opinion. And hitting on them in the grocery store is not going to change their opinion, no matter how “smooth” or “charming” you come across.
C'mon man what is this lol no it's not fair to say

Just avoid any overly direct pick up attempt. Don't lead off with any kind of compliment or pick up line. Just ask for advice on how to pick a good canto lope or which beef is best for a stew... whatever the hell section she's in at the time and stops to look at stuff.
If she has a real answer continue following her lead and follow up question. If she just shrugs and says i don't know, segway into why you are asking. I'm trying to learn how to cook so i don't do take out everyday, i'm trying to go on a diet, blah blah whatever. If she finds the floor more interesting than you at that point then thank her and move on.
