Ngl, the maks do make it really tough. Especially indoors. Only way so far I've found around it is approaching outdoors. People don't wear masks outdoors that often, as transmission outdoors is incredibly rare.
[β]vardarac 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Weirdly enough, I managed to get a girl's number wearing a mask the entire time, and she's been texting back (but we'll see). I was even the only non-staff in the place wearing a mask due to having recently been sick.
My vibe wasn't even that crazy good, it was pretty average and the only thing we had in common was liking to go to live music and dancing.
[β]putcoolusernamehere 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I think it can make it hard to read body language queues without seeing their face. I had a solid interaction with a girl who was wearing a mask, but at the end I pushed a little too hard for the instant date and it led to her not texting me back, so I kina wonder if I had been able to see her face if I would've been able to calibrate better.

Haha Not to mention the fact that you cannot see what they actually look like! (And vice versa)
Countless stories out there from myself and others of meeting a masked cutie that turns out to be...something other than a cutie once the mask comes off later.
Be careful. Haha

That's EXACTLY the problem I'm having and the reason I can't wait for this fucking pandemic to end... fucking hell!!
but with the new variant of the virus this is not gonna end any time soon.

Haha Even after everything I know about this crap -
I got the hots for the new doctor that came to work with us the other month... Been enjoying our flirtatious little back-and-forth, and didn't realize until the staff Thanksgiving dinner that the bottom half of her face had always been covered until that event. Let's just say I was left mourning a loss, after what I saw across the dinner table that evening. Haha

REVERSE FOR ME, I'm one of those who actually look MUCH better without the mask on and average(at best) wearing it. Shxt sucks whenever I'm somewhere that I HAVE to keep it on, especially when they're attractive females walking around.
Edit: looks(if you have em) are a part of your game, removing that handicaps a motherfxxker GREATLY. Especially since 90% of secure females place a HUGE green check mark on a guy thats handsome in addiction to muscles, masculinity, charisma, and seduction game...most won't admit it though.
[β]DaydreamingMister 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Haha In that case, I think I'd be risking getting a slap on the risk in those environments due to "needing" to pull down my mask to sip from my water bottle or something.
[β]BagEmpty6931 38 points39 points40 points 4 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link
Mask should not be a problem if you have natural smile and casual approach.
It happens, you should get used to scaring girls if you are begginer at cold approaching.
[β]Ljhasta 9 points10 points11 points 4 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link
How could anyone possiblly see your smile with a mask on?
From your eyes?
Ain't nobody trying to get premature crows feet

If you're older than 13 and spend any appreciable amount outdoors during daylight you already have 'em.π€£

[β]poetic-cheese 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Hmmm... Do you have snow? Everyone I know has them. I guess good use of sunglasses and good skin care would effect them.
[β]Ljhasta 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Yeah I live in Canada. We only get a few months of hot weather.
But I only started wearing sunscreen in the last year so I guess I got lucky. Usually I would only wear it on vacation or really long days in the sun
[β]poetic-cheese 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Sweet! Me too, Winnipeg...π€£ Yeah, lucky skin.
[β]NoNameAnonUser 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Uh... Yes? With or without mask, you have to smile with your eyes too, if you don't want to creep the shit out of the girl.
[β]Ljhasta 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I havnt smiled with my eyes since I was a little kid. Never creeped out anyone.
I don't know what planet your living on but you most certainly don't need to smile with your eyes.
[β]Neil1398 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Thatβs how I started my journey, and I actually was successful.
I donβt think it matters whether you have a mask on or not

I'd rather be 40 and hot.... then 40 and not π€£
You have to think ahead
Hitting up chicks with your mask on will never work bro. Ever lol
[β]ilostthegamespacedx 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Smile with your eyes. If you can't tell that you're smiling with a mask on, it's a fake smile.
[β]norwegiandoggo 19 points20 points21 points 4 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
Don't cold approach in public. Go to a social event where people don't wear masks. Like a home party. Otherwise you're stuck with dating apps for the time being.
[β]fxvp 26 points27 points28 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
Fuck i picked the worst possible time to learn cold approach.
[β]putcoolusernamehere 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Yeah, as someone who leaned almost exclusively on cold approach to get dates, the past 20 months have been rough for me.
+1
night game has been the redeeming factor because no one gives a shit in the club though, but my day game has gone to shit
I'm at a point where I'm just gonna day game and say some corny line like "I thought you were pretty cute, at least above the mask". I saw it in a few infields and it worked to a varying degree
I've never been one for night game (I'm too introverted and also into more introverted girls), but I imagine it's a lot easier than daygame rn.
[β]Moon_Bus 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
well this is either the new normal or it will go back to the old normal soon enough. appreciate the fact that women are getting more craving for interaction because of the situation. it can help you learn to use your voice, work on posture, body language and other fundamentals.οΏΌοΏΌοΏΌ Plus the fact that she might also be unattractive under the mask will help you learn to communicate without expectation or heightened lustfulness which can sabotage an interactionοΏΌ.

Excuses.
[β]potua 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Great time to learn if you got good body language and if you smile naturally (with your eyes).
[β]mrpodo 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

[β]Frosty_Connection867 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
If you smile with your eyes, not this- ππ this- ππ Then it should be alright, smiling with your eyes is naturally what you do when you genuinely feel good anyway, also apparently people can hear in your voice when your smiling through calls so masks aren't a big deal

[β]KlausFenrir 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You donβt. Simple as that. They may not actually be attractive so why risk it? Youβll just put yourself in an awkward position.

You can read body language
[β]Teapot_Dragon 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Body language, tone, and context.

Try wearing a balaclava instead.
[β]Superb-Bank9899 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link
People can tell your smiling by raised cheeks and other facial cues. Try to keep the conversation light and throw in laughter. If things are going good then maybe a reassuring hand on the shoulder.
[β]Ljhasta 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Why are you cold approaching with a mask on lol?π€£
[β]NF1235 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Where are yβall living where people are still wearing masks indoors? lol. Where I live people havenβt been for the better part of 6-7 months.
[β]reginaldpbottomtooth 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Easy, stop wearing a mask
[β]NattyGains4Life 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Personally Iβm past masks at this point, unless the place youβre in absolutely demands masks thereβs no reason either of you are wearing masks (if she isnβt, for godβs sake, donβt use one)
And the usual goes from there
[β]Ljhasta -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I never wore a mask outside once unless I forgot it was there. Why would you?
Just keep distance from people

[β]No_Way2496 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It makes it tougher, How ever people are now used to it and adapt.
Most cities now you can walk without mask.
With mask what you also can do is quicky lower it and then put it back on so she can see that you are smiling
[β]maplemario 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
What city are you in? Even in LA, bars and clubs are sites of mass noncompliance - no one wears masks even though itβs technically required. Makes night game much easier.
[β]Hayden_Beroc 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Dude what you are asking is just some weasels of not approaching and I understand it even I did not do any approach between February to November because of covid.
Here id what I do when approaching, during the approach I lower my mask for a few seconds and then I put it back on so that they can see that I am smiling.

Where are you living where people have to wear masks everywhere?
[+]undergroundfucker -18 points-17 points-16 points 4 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
Man with mask are less atractive, women look at it like submissive man and weak, plus it makes you look shy. When I aproach women I never use mask, if you are afraid of the virus don't get to close or stay home and use social media to pick girls. If you realize that masks make your seductive game weaker then you know the answer. Ps: don't aproach women using mask, they are avoiding the virus so they won't get in new relationships so easy and of course its hard for you to know if She is ugly or not ππ» Good luck
[β][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
Dude we are in a fucking pandemic lol. Where I live we have a mask mandate. Wearing a mask doesn't make you look "less masculine" or whatever, it's simply common sense.
[β]dwightaroundya 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Outside? In public? Fuck that and I live in the bay.
[β][deleted] -3 points-2 points-1 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Well ok indoor, but I'm in the midwest and we're currently the hotspot of COVID in the country.
Plus with the omicron variant we'll probably all have to mask up again no matter how effective the vaccines are. Omicron is an entirely different beast compared to Delta and even the original COVID variant.
[β]Fit-Kaleidoscope-360 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Tldr; be like a fucking idiot and ignore mask mandates so that most women avoid you and cops can lock your dumbass down.

It's fine if the girl is wearing a mask. If you are, intuition tells me girls will think you're a pussy π€·ββοΈ I just don't wear them at all when cold approaching.

Practice on cash register chicks. Was literally running game on two today at lunch and they were eye fucking me. I forget I even have the mask on. Plus, adds mystery to you,which girls love. Had them two giggling off some dumb shit I said and I knew I was in. Easy as pie. Trial and error. Im still trying to get the rust off too,so don't sweat it.
