"Gimme a smile, baby" sounds like something from a bad porn film. You know, right before they get down to business....

Ah, this is another reason why porn has ruined hetero cis male/female relations! They're actually think this is going to happen when they say this to me, right on the street. No wonder why they get so pissed at me when I ignore them. Here they thought they were gonna get some rumpy pumpy, the poor dears. :(

So, "gimme a smile, baby" would be a good icebreaker?

Oh dear Lord, please don't say that to a random woman. That would be what I imagine Buffalo Bill would utter right before he says, 'It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again'.

"You know, you have a beautiful smile." would win much more praise, in my opinion.

And, I'm with Nilla - I have never had an aversion to chatting up a stranger...as a general rule. Obviously, there are quick criteria that I gauge before turning a 'Some weather we're having, huh?' passing greeting into a conversation, e.g., my schedule, my initial comfort level with that person, the type conversation starter offered, etc.

I was trying to be funny. It's a Borat reference, from when he interviews 'feminists'... nevermind. :rolleyes:

Though I think "You know, you have a beautiful smile." to a random person might actually get a similar response..

Right, because of possible self-consciousness. Sometimes a polite "hi" and not being too awesome that even you know it are all you can do.

Oh, ok. I never saw, 'Borat'....on purpose. :p

And, the smile intro has always gotten a smile and a chat in return from me. But, whatever you're comfortable with.

How about "Gimme a break, baby?" Then when she hits you for saying a stupid pickup line, it'll be justified.
 
we have "don't worry love, it might never happen!" if random woman looks anxious (not that I'd say it..)

Typically NZ women don't respond, because you know, it's really patronising...:D
 
Women don't look anxious when I say hello to them. They just ignore me, or treat me as a friend (which is worse.)

So you'd rather be ignored than having a female as a friend?
Dude. That's kinda messed up.
Isn't that kind of like saying.... you won't be my gf so buzz off? o_O
 
I don't see what's so bad with a woman thinking of you as a friend. To be quite honest, I think I'd rather have a woman as a friend only. I share a lot of things in common with women and I miss female company, but everything is so much easier when there is no physical attraction or when you at least both know where the boundaries are.
 
LeaningIntoTheMuse said:
You misunderstand me.

I have plenty of friends. I want a girlfriend.

Yes, which supports what I said about it sending the message to a female that if she doesn't wanna be your gf, she can buzz off.
That's one of the best ways I know of to make yourself look like a jerk to a woman (from a woman's point of view).
 
You're misunderstanding me, again. Please read what I wrote.

Most of my friends are female. I have tons of friends. I don't need another one.

When I approach a girl, who I find attractive, it's kind of insulting that I get the "big brother" speech. I just want to be recognized like a sexual MAN, like any other man would. I'm tired of being the guy friend.

LOL, Im not "misunderstanding" anything. YOU go read what you wrote. :p
 
We're saying two different things.

I am saying that I have lots of friends, and I like to make new friends, but I want a girlfriend...and every single girl that I want to be in a relationship with turns out to just want to just be friends, and doesn't find me sexually attractive.

You are saying that I am saying that I tell women to buzz off, rather than be friends with them, since they don't want to be my girlfriend. If that were the case, I would not have a million friends.

You just blew your own logic.

Nope. My thoughts are perfectly logical. Read your own text up there.
 
I made a general comment, and you turned it into a debate. I really don't have time to debate this silly stuff with you.
