Here's How to Get Rid of Your Fear of Approaching a Beautiful Woman

"It doesn't have to be hard or painful to approach a woman and ask her out. It all comes down to understanding basic social psychology."

You can be a tremendously successful man. A great-looking guy. An all-around rockstar and a god in your chosen career. And yet...you might still have a fear of approaching a gorgeous woman and opening up a conversation with her.

This fear is extremely widespread and plagues even the most confident men. It is a primal fear – hearkening back to the days when we all huddled up in caves and were only beginning to learn how to use fire. Back in those days, if a man was turned down by a woman, he could easily become the laughing stock of the little tribe. And if he became the laughingstock of the tribe, no woman would want to be with him. So he'd be doomed to live out the rest of his days without a mate. Which is a pretty scary thought. So out of this situation arose the fear of approaching a woman. Of course, in today's modern society – where you can hop on board a jet airliner and meet women wherever you go – this fear doesn't make rational sense. But it's still there, and it still stops a lot of men from making a move and approaching a woman.

Fortunately, there's a way to work around this fear. It's simple, really: simply begin by asking out women (or asking for their phone number) who you know are already interested in you. This will drop your “rejection rate” way down, and give you the fearlessness to approach even the hottest woman around you.

But how do you know that a woman is interested in you? It's amazing, actually: she doesn't have to say she's attracted to you in order to signal that she's actually interested in you. Instead, she'll give off little clues that she's interested in you – and if you pick up on these “clues” or “cues,” you'll have the confidence to continue the conversation with her and move forward from there (either asking her out or asking for her contact info).

So here's a quick rundown of the little “signals” she'll give off if she's attracted to you. The more of these you detect, the more confident you can be that she really is interested in you. Take a look!

10 Signs that She Digs You

1) If she walks by you and she casually brushes against you.

2) On a related note: she doesn't pull back if you accidentally get too close to her.

3) She comes up with reasons to be near you – or “excuses” to interact with you.

4) Are you talking with her or members of her group? Does she giggle more than most people would? She's probably into you.

5) Suppose you're having a conversation with her, and then you stop talking. If she tries to re-start the conversation, then she might be interested in you. This is an important sign that she's attracted to you, because she's actively investing energy in keeping things going with you.

6) If you see her smiling or giggling nearby when you're having a conversation with your friends, make note of this! She's listening to what you're saying and probably finds you attractive.

7) Another “clue” to look out for: does she play with her hair nervously when talking with you? If “yes,” she likely digs you! While we're on it, if she tosses her hair while your nearby, she might be doing that to see if you'll look – signaling that she may by interested in you.

8) If she asks for your age while talking with you, this is another sign she's attracted to you. Hint: make her guess what your age is! This will make things lighter and more fun.

9) Say you've been talking to her and her group, and you're about to leave. If she asks you where you're going, then she may be interested in you. Hint: if it's not an inconvenience to you, invite her to wherever it is you're going!

10) Suppose she's been talking with you and your friends, and she's about to leave. If she approaches you specifically and tells you she's leaving, she may very well be attracted to you. Hint: this is an excellent time to ask for her phone number. The important thing here is to play it cool and don't come across as too pushy. Just be casual about it: “Hey, what's your phone number in case I decide to hit you up?”

There you go. For all you striving, ambitious men out there – it doesn't have to be hard or painful to approach a woman and ask for her digits – or ask her out. It all comes down to understanding basic social psychology. So next time you're out and about and you see some cutie and strike up a conversation with her, watch for these signs!
