Here’s a secret I am letting you in on. If you read this and “… secret? This stuff is obvious!”, then you’re on the right track.

My friends approach women any time, any place, and then wonder why they get rejected.

There are certain situations in which you shouldn’t approach women. They aren’t all out and about just because they’re lonely or they’re looking for someone. Here are situations where you shouldn’t approach women.

If she is intently reading her newspaper or book

She is too fascinated by the text to give you attention. You’ll be annoying her so don’t even try to approach her.

If she is on her cell phone

If you approach the woman when she’s on her cell phone, you’ll be ignored. If she says anything to you, you would have gotten lucky.

If she is upset or crying

She’ll know you’re fishing for ass so don’t bother. If you’re genuinely concerned for her that’s one thing but don’t expect digits.

If she looks pissed off

She will take her anger out on you, so save it for another hottie.

If she is wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses

Most women would never wear these things outside. This is a clear signal of when you should not approach her. She’s probably running out to the super market for a snack.

If she is with her co-workers

Most women would not flirt in front of coworkers. Approach the woman and she will blow you off (not a BJ).

Remember, when approaching women you want to maximize your chances. Don’t ruin your ego by approaching women at the worst times.
