I just can't read the title of this thread without thinking of Elmer Fudd trying to sneak up on Bugs.1

Maybe all those Hallmark movies are right and you only find true love when he accidentally bumps into you at a busy intersection and everything turns right in your world in an instant.
And this is why I always hang out at bus stops and freeway rest areas.
I heard you let fat girls borrow your jack in case of a flat. What state are you from again? I might move there.
My state?
I have dual citizenship in both the state of confusion and the state of despair.2 -

I only accept approaching men with the completed consent-to-talk-to-me form application, credit history, and background check in hand.
Would you instead consider a box of donuts and some false promises?0 -

False promises are what dreams are made of...
I'm focused on the box of donuts myself3 -

instead
just wait for them in the parking lot
inside their car
in the backseat.
I have an easier version. Pretend you're blind and go for a shower with her.1 -
it sounds like if a "girl' wants you to ask her out than anywhere and anytime is fine...but if she does not NO WHERE NOR AT ANY TIME is it acceptable. good luck guys.4

But what if the girl is smiling and appearing to be looking at the guy? So the guy goes up to her and smiles and says hello and she calls the police on him and squirts him in the face with pepper spray because he was being inappropriate and making her feel uncomfortable. Turns out she was only smiling at her own reflection in the mirror directly behind him and he didn't know.
good point. I guess you have to measure..."is this worth the risk?"

Some of us have built up quite a tolerance to pepper spray.1 -

I think this is where MGTOW steps in...

he could always have the front desk use the pa system - that's safe!

I've always liked the very subtle...
Do you know how to use that thing little lady?
While trying to deepen my voice more than naturally4 -

Smile and nod at her. Maybe use the machine next to her and start conversation. Or just man up and ask her if she wants to grab a drink at the juice bar. I like forward men so 🤷🏻♀️1
-
Maybe just make small talk and see if she is receptive1

I would normally recommend not to but if you really want the person bad enough then just catch them between their set and make small talk0

Gym is not for picking up women, if your there for that, your there for the wrong reasons2
-
Defo don't - I had a strange(ish) guy follow me round the gym recently trying to engage in chat and it was weird. I don't even know if he was trying an approach or just keen for a chat but my general rule is I don't want to talk at the gym, or meet new people, or be hit on. I just want to work out.
I can't speak for others but it can make a safe great place feel rubbish.0 -
Best from the front or the side, stopping at a safe minimal distance of 5 ft for no more than 2 seconds before you get back to doing what you're there to do in the first place - lift and let lift.1
-
I would have to go with don’t!! I am certain that 99% of the women in the gym are there just for the purpose of working out. The gym is not a good place to approach women. Just workout and let them work out.0

Gym is not a place to get exercise for third leg.0
-
Certainly not during a workout! Maybe in the parking lot or on your way out. I suggest no body, technique and personal fitness related comments. Simply say Hi, how are you? Or have you tried the new weight machine? If she's interested she will engage you in conversation, maybe not at that instance, but eventually if you see her repeatedly.
She will probably also notice if you are doing this with all the ladies. Be selective and non-creepy!2
