    Here's a piece of advice for all the girls to help combat the fresh onslaught of guys finding enough confidence to talk to you.

    Buy a cheap prepaid cell phone. When a guy asks for your number, give him that number. If things go odd you can just toss the phone without issue.

    Fun fact: Using a prepaid cell phone is also great for dealing with inlaws.

    You can get a new sim card from the pound shop and save your pennies for the next girl.

    Talk to girls like you would anyone else. Believe it or not I used to be very shy and it was nice when anyone noticed I even existed.

    Pretty women shut down my prefrontal cortex, I wonder if I do the same thing to pretty women ? Is that what causes the awkward silence ? We cant think of anything smart to say so we just stare into eachothers eyes and enjoy one anothers presence.

    Well, one thing is for sure, once I get a woman talking, she'll keep going and going and going, they're like energizer bunnies. It's really nice, it means less work for me.(thinking of things to say) toss in an occasional antecdote, do some word association, avoid saying goreish things especially right after her father is in a Motor vehicle accident, and you're good to go.

    Talk to girls like you would anyone else
    but thats the point, its not just as simple as that, girls arent anyone else. A girl you want to date or like is different and not like anyone else, thats why you like her I guess.
    And girls are different, but the thing is to realize is that you must not feel taking every girl you talk to, out on a date, its ok if you cant cant win over her by charm or anything.
    Its ok it was just a plain conversation about the how terrible the weather is this year.
    You dont have to win her over.
    But overall, its just something that has to be overcome by practice more than anything. Anything at first is awkward and wierd and sometimes downright embarrasing, but like anything good its worth all that.
    You cant draw hands that well, every time you tried it looked so bad that you dont feel like drawing them? well thats not likely how you will get better.
    well that the same thing with having conversation and interacting with people.

    I am sure you have a few good things/habits in you that can help people connect with you.
    Hell just take out a sketchbook and start drawing someone infront of you,half the time you wont even have to initiate the conversation, and you will talk about your territory(art) and can impress them with that. If you want to initiate, just take their sketch over to them and hand it to them. I am sure you wont be worse off without a sketch, plus a potential friend. Dont wear hoodies or look like unabomber though, that just sucks, I know( I really do).
    Good listening/responding is important. But no pretending.

    Maybe it's just me, but the questions about carrying pig feet are even more bizarre. Why would someone be carrying pig feet? Is it a crude euphemism, like camel toe? Like, Hey girl, you need to adjust yourself, you're 'carrying pig feet'? Or is the practice of transporting pig feet so widespread in the area that if a person is carrying an unidentified object, on the balance of probabilities it's more likely to be a parcel of pig feet than anything else?

    And brush your teeth! At least a couple times a day, and avoid garlic! Hell, brush after you eat absolutely anything, and then chew trident!

    You know I seriously have no idea what that was about, he was particularly insane. This happened like last week so it's very fresh on my mind and was the first example I thought of. :B I was walking in the vague direction of an Asian deli, and he was weird...? It was very clearly a coffee tin, it said COFFEE on it in huge letters. I don't know the whole situation was weird and creepy! SO don't be like that guy, and girls will probably not mind talking to you overmuch!

    What I've learned so far; Chicks dig Sports, Sprite, and Trident. I know what I'm going to be for halloween.

    Everytime I hear about sports, just the mere mention of the topic
    I just shut down.

    Unless it's followed by something embarresing/disgusting/horrific.

    Sprite's pretty cool though.
    Take a look? - Sketchbook -

    Also, why not check these guys too?

    Just thought of a good idea. I make my self a business card and clean up my site so it looks more presentable. And then every time I strike up a conversation with someone at the end I give them my business card.

    A good way to chat, network and get new potential clients.

    Makes me think of one of my friends pick-up lines that he got kicked in the balls for:

    Him: "Me and you? We're going to go to my place and have sex tonight."
    Her: "Yeah? How do you figure that?"
    Him: "Because I'm stronger than you."

    Not anymore, and he speaks seven octaves higher.
