dont overthink, just open

My dad actually met my mum through a street approach. He was watching too many John Travolta movies lol.

It's a classic. Doesn't work as well as in the smart phone era though, unless you do it ironically.

EmilyCrez · 2020-09-09T15:17:24+00:00

Where do you go from there?

catblack8008 · 2020-09-09T13:24:48+00:00

Cant pull this trick now a days

BurdenofPain · 2020-09-09T13:44:41+00:00

simplicity at its finest!

HeavenPiercingMan · 2020-09-09T20:50:31+00:00

The amount of blackpilling in the replies is unbearable.

heroidosudeste · 2020-09-09T13:25:58+00:00

Gosh that some move

Geomaster53 · 2020-09-09T14:40:29+00:00

“Don’t overthink” wow how helpful

Cromlorde · 2020-09-09T23:57:15+00:00

You can still do this today, sit next to her on the bus open the window throw your phone out and ask her the time

Goldenpanda18 · 2020-09-09T19:52:27+00:00

What if she says I don't have a watch either?

Now it's awkward

ecphotoman · 2020-09-09T20:45:52+00:00

It's a little more complicated today. Location based app dating both revolutionized dating and ruined it in one fell swoop. If you ask for the time now, she's going to think your a broke scrub that can't afford a smart watch.

EastEndMontrealer1 · 2020-09-09T23:42:08+00:00

I thought I was the only one who used this approach

joslat92 · 2020-09-09T16:00:34+00:00

Oh you dirty dog. Gimme all your secrets

gooch-original · 2020-09-09T19:26:35+00:00

Do you know that before they make it to their 32nd wedding anniversary, they will have been married for ONE BILLION seconds?

DajuanKev · 2020-09-09T20:37:16+00:00

I love the "You miss all the shots you don't take, make the best of the opportunity" approach. I love that I managed to approach women while they were eating, etc on college campuses because you highly likely won't see them again.

Approaching women on the bike as they're bypassing you is one of the biggest obstacles tho. Them legs tho.

Imaginesafety · 2020-09-09T21:43:08+00:00

You’re doing 5 years minimum during your trial if you try to pull this in 2020 lool. I’d just place it in her hand.

jmalli12 · 2020-09-09T22:07:44+00:00

Opener is the least important part use anything

biscuitslayer77 · 2020-09-09T22:38:54+00:00

I hate being the cynic here but that was 31 years ago... that actually working like that today is more likely than my hair growing back on my head...

danirobot · 2020-09-09T22:51:12+00:00

Or if you're a youtuber, just ask for the Hayden Library, apparently.

misser_eric · 2020-09-09T23:43:08+00:00

He Daygamed her awesome 👏

7Saturn7Saturn7 · 2020-09-10T03:13:45+00:00

This one goes out to all the direct game and radical honesty adherents lol.

popaknot154 · 2020-09-10T06:58:43+00:00

I love that!

Pramey1111 · 2020-09-10T10:27:17+00:00

so sweet haha

Zero1030 · 2020-09-10T11:43:53+00:00

Sure that's all it took, posts like this just give people false expectations.

Carton_sigiloso · 2020-09-18T19:59:54+00:00

Ends up in jail for "harassment"

max_wise · 2020-09-22T16:48:40+00:00

So the next time I meet my crush, I tell her she looks beautiful and ask her out to a lunch. Is it how it goes like?

Shawn_Mendes_369 · 2020-10-06T13:50:40+00:00

Never Overthink!!!

zahacker · 2020-10-14T08:48:27+00:00

Will never work nowadays

fucknooooo · 2020-10-31T16:22:26+00:00

That’s gangster! Respect!

youzabish · 2020-11-05T15:44:11+00:00

YO what a legend. Lost my virginity this way too haha. I had an iPad in my hands too 😂

scrotalimplosion · 2021-01-04T04:36:38+00:00

This is called sexual harassment by feminists these days

solhaug-art · 2021-01-21T20:50:16+00:00

That won't work in 2021

ManHands22 · 2020-09-10T06:40:45+00:00

Jeez, so cringe. Taking pickup advise from an old timer who's been outta the game for decades, this is AFC shit loool

vandoru · 2020-09-10T07:28:14+00:00

I did the same and when I went to introduce myself she cringed and looked away lol.

psypD · 2020-09-09T15:29:16+00:00

2020.

"I saw her on a bus , put my watch in my pocket , sat down next to her , and asked her for the time. ... She started laughing saying that I am a loser with no smartphone... started screaming saying that I grabbed her ass...and run out off the buss... Bitch stole my watch from my pocket."

drevenx13 · 2020-09-09T16:54:34+00:00

They didn’t have Facebook, Instagram, Tinder in those times. Women didn’t value themselves as much as they do now. Try pulling this in todays world and pandemic and you risk being arrested for harrassment.

alexplex86 · 2020-09-09T19:53:29+00:00

r/restofthefuckingowl

DosMangos · 2020-09-09T13:51:45+00:00

Isn’t this overthinking it though?

Like, why go through the trouble of faking not having a watch and just strike a conversation?

MarquisdeSeda · 2021-02-11T17:47:14+00:00

Such crap honestly. Guy can come over with an open heart and best intention and will be shot down 80% of the time. The romance love with music only happens in movies; rarely happens in real life.
