Here's How To Approach Women You're Attracted To, According To Men

by Eitan Levine

Approaching women just got a whole lot easier, thanks to a bunch of modern-day Casanovas on Reddit.

There are few things in life more treacherous and nerve-racking than cold-approaching a girl you are interested in. Even crab fishing in the Bering Strait is slightly less dangerous than going up to a girl you're into because although you may die in an icy, watery grave while scooping opilio crab out of the sea, that's it. You just die, and then, there is a funeral and memorial for you, and then, your name is put on a plaque, and occasionally, people will say stuff like,

Oh, Davey?! Such a great skipper! It's a shame Poseidon took him into his watery kingdom down below.

If you approach a girl, and it goes terribly, you have to live with that guilt for the rest of your life as it slowly eats away at your sanity.

There is a girl I obsessed over in 11th grade whom I finally approached at a Jewish youth program and literally just said, “Is that a chess set?” while she played chess in the social hall of a synagogue in New Brunswick, New Jersey.

That moment STILL haunts me to this day.

If you're looking for advice on how to talk to women from a group of people who maybe never talked to girls, Reddit has you covered.

1. "I knew [a] guy in school who got a lot of girls" should be on the Reddit family crest.
