If you were out and saw someone fit, would you go upto them and give them your number/talk to them? Not as in a bar or a club, just out an about.
I always see the fittest people driving. It's so annoying.

no i don't approach people randomly in the street. i've had it done to me a few times and they're never good looking and its always awkward because you don't know what the fuck to say.
worst is when you do see someone fit and you both stare at each other as you walk past... this happened about 6months ago and i decided i would double take him i.e. we stare, walk past then a few seconds later turn around to look at him again. he did exactly the same and but then carried on walking. wimp :grump:
awesome...
anyway in answer to your question, I probably wouldn't. I would get tongue tied.
It might be easier as a girl towards a boy, but the other way round you prolly have a suit for molestation quick.
But he is exceptionally outgoing, and possibly a little bit on the man-whore side. I think you'd have to have a lot of guts and self confidence to do something like that.

if its a girl thats another story. id probobly just stop and stare until she talks to me, which doesnt happen often:no:
Aww your only 14.
Honestly, men. And No I wouldnt do it, drunk, sober or whatever, I dont have the balls to approach someone I like.
That's right...
Moreoever is it always the stupid self-doubt "will it work, how will she react?"
If there is in fact that what Rach stated, that there is almost sparks in the air, because of the current in the air of having eye contact for several seconds constantly for the last 15 minutes, it's just a question of "who gives in earlier." :P
Even if there are blatant sparks then I still can't approach a girl first unless I'm intoxicated.
yea, that was the premise of course :P
Try to get your friends to dare you. for 10 quid or a 2 pints of cider. That's always a motivation to, I found
Haha, good idea mate
If I know that a girl likes me for certain, as in she has told me herself or she has told someone that I trust who has told me, then yeah I can approach her. But as you said, it's the fear of self-doubt. I need to be 100% certain because I fear being rejected and humiliated more than anything else.
I see plenty of good looking girls, working in a uni and going into a big city regular but as for giving out my number or owt like that, forget it.
I may try and catch a girls eye as she walks past and smile but thats rarely returned
I have on occassiona, chatted to a girl at a bus stop if is juts me an dher there but that never gets more then conversation unfortunately
I'd love it if a girl double took me out on the street but most girls seem to be with their bfs or in a hurry to notice me lol.
That's it. And I even HAD that happening, so the fear is nothing unsubstantial, but that's the prize of being the superior sex.
I'm just kidding. Don't give me shit.
I love you for that.
aww, you edited it out freudian slip deluxe
You walk in a tram in the morning, don't be surprised if you find everyone sitting alone through the entire tram
If I get a smile in return I'll look back as well.
However I don't think I have ever or would ever approach a girl at random like that without an excuse for starting up a conversation. Would just be a bit odd in my eyes.
Not that i know of. They're usually in vans
A bloke that served me in a shop gave me his number once, he was kinda sweet but i figured that he must be some sort of nutter or something so didn't call him.
funny
The nutter that used to work in the nearby Tescos gave me his number once, that went straight in the bin!
If your referring to me then you can fuck off.
This sort of speech is not ok.
