You talk to them like you'd talk to anyone else. It's not like they're aliens or something, just because they're attractive.

It's always easier to talk to girls when you have a noticeable boner.

Stop putting women on a pedestal and learn to realize that crushes aren't based on anything real.

Just talk to women and then talk to more women and then talk to more women. It has to be natural, and for it to be natural you just have to do it a lot.

you're playin games with yerself man. if you find confidence too much to muster, at least start with not psyching yourself out so much. just be light, interactions arent transactional or competitions or anything. talk with no greater goal in mind then to just have a convo :v

I know exactly what your problem is. It's that you are mentally weak.

You need to mentally become stronger in order to be able to talk to another person without getting anxiety. You have stop thinking of them as an attractive person and start thinking of them as another human made of flesh, skin and bones. A mortal, fragile human that can expire in a million different ways but luck has somehow protected them from the realities of our world.

Out of the 8 billion humans alive today, some of them have to face those realities so others can survive.

What I dont understand is when its appropriate to ask them out. Not while theyre working. Not while Im working. Not a coworker. Not someone on the street. Not someone thats been drinking at the bar. Tried online, but zero luck. I just dont get it

I dont have anyone to text, lol. What I mean is that I all these social situations it seems wrong to ask someone out or flirt with them.

I think this cashier is cute. Should I flirt? No, seems bad to put them on the spot like that when they cant just walk away

I think coworker is cute. Should I flirt? No, seems like a bad idea to put pressure on a coworker and make things awkward

I think the girl at the bar is attractive, but I dont know how much shes had to drink. I dont drink because Im in recovery, so it seems terrible to hit on women thats been drinking

Walking down the street listening to music? Why would anyone want a strange man to come up to them?

I *think* what Bad Mojo was getting at was the difficulty in knowing/reading that you "aren't putting pressure on them" especially given that a lot of places (work, gym, grocery store, etc) seem to have a default "asking here is too much pressure".

I've never seen someone act like you can't talk to a woman at a bar. This is just making excuses not to work on your insecurities. You can talk to someone who is really drunk. It's a situation that, believe it or not, you can bail on it. If you think you're going to be creepy or a date rapist that says a lot about you

Flirting is looking for information that signifies compatibility, and broadcasting signals about your value. If youre attracted to someone you only see while theyre working, what other opportunity are you going to have to flirt? Just dont be inappropriate, know how to gauge interest, and if you cross a boundary apologize before moving on.

Because they're drunk, or at least buzzed, and I'm sober. Seems highly inappropriate. But yes, I'm sure it does have a lot to do with insecurities. I'm not insecure with how I look, or being turned down, though. I'm insecure about being viewed as some horny creep. I don't even want to get laid, I want to find someone that I enjoy being around.

What I think I need to do is go to game night at a local game store and play some card/board games and get familiar with people. But again, it seems creepy to me to hit on people in your friend circle. So I don't know. I've never been on a date before, and I don't really see myself ever going on one.

People don't think about how you come off nearly as much as we think about it ourselves, and people who are drunk are especially not paying attention. If anything they're good social practice, just don't be manipulative when them

By not trying too hard to get off with them. Once the pressure's off, you act and talk more relaxed.
