Loveisfullofacid answered Wednesday October 12 2011, 6:17 pm: This happens to me with guys,
What I do is if that person is on a social networking site eg. Facebook,Myspace. Add them,talk to them and try to make a little inside joke eg. give her a nickname then when you see her around in person then "call her that nickname" then start talking from then because she knows who you are and hopefully you have something in common. Good Luck Dude :) x [ Loveisfullofacid's advice column | Ask Loveisfullofacid A Question ]

You're nervous for whatever reason; convince yourself that she is too, being approached by a strange man, not knowing what his agenda is, where this meeting/date/whatever might go, how it will end.
Focus on her as a person and hopefully, with some humour as well, you'll be surprised.
Good luck, hope this helps,let me know what happens. [ Carriebeca's advice column | Ask Carriebeca A Question ]

Hobbies and personal interests are great ways to meet people; men and women. The reason for this is similar interest gives you something to talk about. For example lets say you like photography. Join a photography club. There are many women who enjoy this hobby as well as men. Once you start talking about the different nuances of photography a relationship can bloom.
It really doesn't matter what the hobby is or it could also be a church fellowship group. The fear factor is reduced by the level of knowledge and the common denominator of the group. Your on level ground with a common interest.

My own boyfriend for example was just a mate at work, we just got talking now and again and found we liked the same films (so we started going to the movies alot), we both liked coffee (I introduced him to the nearest starbucks) and so on.
Eventually we found out we were both similar and quite attracted to one another and other feelings came into place, but it wasn't instant, these things never are.
To start with just ignore the fact that we're women (yes I know it can be difficult with some) but talking and listening is a good place to start. [ roseyapple's advice column | Ask roseyapple A Question ]
