Here is another cool question from yahoo answers. Check it out and see if it resonates with you.

For example, if I was in a train station and I saw a woman I liked. Would it be acceptable for me to approach her, say hi and ask her out? Is this common? Or can dates only be arranged at specific venues like nightclubs or social functions?

My quick answer to this question:
You’re at the right place man, I’ve MASTERED, researched, and tried out every possible way, location or method of approaching women… So I’m going to give you the most COMPLETE answer to this question.

The answer is that YES, you can meet women on the pedestrian walk, the train, the bus-stop, the supermarket… But I wouldn’t recommend it. Why?

Let me start off with saying that I have met THOUSANDS of girls at such locations, and arranged dates/numbers with hundreds… But here’s the deal. Even though it IS possible, the social stigma for meeting strangers at such a place is so high, that its just not worth the effort. It takes a lot of effort to first lower her defenses, and then, if you do arrange a date, get a number, there are HUGE chances of her still being suspicious and weary, and cancelling the date, or simply not showing up.

So am I telling you to NEVER meet girls at these locations? No… what I am saying is don’t make these location your primary venue for meeting women… Consider them a “bonus”. Only act in these situations if its HER idea. Like, if a girl keeps STARING at you, and smiling at you each time you enter the bus, then yes, go and approach her.

But you know what I do these days? I just talk to and approach everyone. Whenever I am out in public, i just talk (small-talk) to everyone. Be it the person sitting next to me at the bus, the person waiting at the bus-stop etc… It doesn’t matter if its a man, woman, child, or grandma. I am friendly to everyone (EQUALLY). This gives me the special opportunity that when a hot girl does appear, she feels comfortable flirting with me, since she sees I am friendly to everyone. Which is how I end up with girls off of public places these days.

But as far as planned, structured approaching of girls goes, I would recommend you prioritize and stick to social venues.
