Don't know how to take that one. Does a superstar sticker mean that I need a hit on the head too because I'm clueless most of the time?

ANSWER. Make eye contact with him and flash a bit of a smile. You don't need to do jumping jacks but some guys do need a hit in the head to notice that a girl is flirting and wants you to approach.

For the umpteen time, that does not work.

When a man is REALLY interested in a woman...he will approach her. Simple. Easy.

If a man is not interested enough to approach me then he is not dateable...for me. He doesn't want me badly enough and I wouldn't want a guy who does not want me badly enough to risk rejection or looking like a fool to pursue me.

Usually works for me and my friends. If a woman doesn't give me a smile back or a few seconds of extended eye contact, I won't approach her. In some cases she won't show a lot of eye contact but instead might come into my personal space in hopes that I say the first word. Women do that to get a better look at a guy, just like we do the same. If she turns away quickly and heads the other way after getting a good look at me, I won't say a word. If she flashes that smile up close, that's a telling sign to say hello and chat her up. I try to speak up before the all else fails unintentional/intentional boob brush or butt brush.

I had a nice walk with a pretty lady on the way to work the other day and it had nothing to do with getting a date and closing the deal with her. It had everything to do with being friendly and approaching her because she smiled at me when I smiled at her first.

It's all about trial and error don't forget.

Some guys don't bother approaching certain women because they can sense the inevitable rejection. It all goes back to the eye contact and her facial expression. At least for me that is.

Some women are better at sending the signals that tell a guy to come hither and banter. Others send mixed signals when they see the guy a little closer and he's not to her physical liking. That's when she comes out with the cold shoulder, quick answers to your conversation and prelude to "nice meeting you/see ya later" responses to get you out of her personal space. It's like she made a mistake thinking you're hot from far but in essence you're not attractive to her up close. The disappointment on her face is all I need.

Some women aren't worth risking rejection. There's no point in exhausting yourself in futility with a woman who will never accept you because of physical requirements or some other lame excuse. All the brains, charm, smarts and wit won't get you anywhere with her. Still, you never know until you try.

So, if a woman is interested in a man, she would approach, too, right?

That would be too logical for some women to understand.

Yeah...

Some people just make subtle reasons toward the contrary by making it sound more difficult than it really is, which is comical and confusing
