Try to remember people's names after they've introduced themselves.

Quote from Turbophoenix

I'm well aware you said it applied to girls like you, and I wasn't singling out anybody.

Rather ironic that I criticised generalisation, then proceeded to generalise the whole thread 🤣

Okay I got you.

Well you're in good company, because my statements might seem contradictory as well, I expect men to pay my way (which I know some find sexist) but I won't put up with misogynistic comments.

shrugs no harm no foul

Honestly I think that when it comes to male-female relationships, both friendly relationships and more than that, everybody is a little bit sexist. I don't jokingly flirt with my male friends, but I do with my female friends. On dates I usually end up paying, though I'm happy to do it because I want to be polite. A few times people have mentioned that they think it's a sexist thing to do, but I don't see it that way. I guess it depends on your point of view.

Don't stay in one place for too long and don't talk about whatever you did last night

If she says she wants to split the bill, LET HER SPLIT THE BILL!!!!!....but don't ask her to on the first date (I probably wouldn't mind, but it all depends on who it is).
Also, please don't just judge girls on whether they're "pretty" or not. I suggest talking to us and then listening to what we have to say. We appreciate it. Bond over manga?
Good luck. 😀

Well, it strongly depends on the girl. =/
Like with any person, I can be formal, friendly, flirtly and so on.
Same with men.

I'm not exactly what you'd call a good example though.
What can I tell you? Be yourself and don't tense up.
Even if it's the opposite gender, they're still just people.

Well, since u gave ur location - its easier to point it out...btw, kaise ho, bhai?...

..u should really give a situation ....if its school and the like, a joke opens a girl up. Just dont make it lewd. Most girls loove laughing at jokes. and it breaks the ice. Please dont ignore a person when you are right beside them. If you are like nice, for example, let a girl go through a door first if you happen to be goin in together- teh gentlemanly things- girls like that. its not to impress, just gaining brownie points...Sorry for saying this, but Indian girls are often drama queens and like to kick up a fuss for little things, talk a lot, and sometimes prejudiced. It also depends where in India you are. It shouldnt be hard to talk about general stuff if ur in a metropolitan city like Dilli or Mumbai...or Bangalore or Pune kind of places...

..The thing is that as long as you are friendly, and easy going. You should be fine. Try not to contradict girls if you are not in a mood for debate.

...o yes, as someone said, key point is eye contact. I have heard girls always mentioning how they think a guy's 'good character' is decided by that. Most girl on first contact just want to ascertain whether they can trust you or not.

as for splitting the bill, most girls (in India) like not doin that. But there are some girls who milk that so be wary...

Quote from Casey D. Geek

While your advice - and the essay - are honestly very helpful, I'll repeat myself and say that there is no particular girl in my mind. I just want to know how to behave with girls so that they don't think I am a jerk - and I'm honestly not a jerk, just inexperienced and "closed off" emotionally, so to say. If its a single girl or a small group of girls in an environment I know - and thus can exert some control over - I'm confident, and can behave well enough. But if the number of girls is more than 3, iin an environment I cannot control, I lose my confidence.

I think I think too much 😛

bring a friend along to help you out then, and make sure you do not just focus on the girl you're interested in, in the group include everyone in the conversation and playfully tease her every once in a while to give her just a little bit more attention then the other girls in the group

just be calm.. and if you get distracted while talking to her, plan it in your head the next day.. like a speech or something.. if you have nothing to say that is.
and another thing! ALWAYS BE NEAT!! if you smell bad, girls will run away.. girls like boys who smell good, i know i do 😀

Thanks for the advice, but as helpful as it is, I am not looking to impress a specific girl !not specifcally to you, otakuness 😛 !. Frankly, I do not want to be involved with someone who cannot accept me as I am, and I do not think that there is a single girl on this entire planet who can accept that. I'm pretty sure about that. So, no, my question is not about a specific girl.

I just don't want to make a fool of myself in front of everybody.

So, it's not girls that you are asking about but people in general.

Also, if you fail at life, just except this and move on. So, if you tell a girl or guy, whichever's funnier, "do you want to come back to my place, bouncy bouncy?" or "If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me? I am no longer infected," except the kick in the balls or punch in the face, go to the hospital, and laugh it off.

to be honest,i personally find it easier to have a conversation with a guy who is a bit shy and clearly uneasy around girls ,it just sort of gives me more confidence(since im a shy girl too)
girls hate over confident guys,ones who are completely comfortable around girls to the point where they dont think before speaking,i know a guy like that,he once told my friend to blow her nose(no kidding)
so you being a little shy or uneasy around girls might not be bad,some girls,like me,prefer talking to this type of guys....but yeah as mentioned before,every girl has a different personality
also,let me tell u something ALL girls would appreciate,be a gentleman,i swear the littlest tiniest thing,like opening doors for us,will make us like you

Since I am a girl I will say what I would like in a man. I want a man that is entertaining, so if you could act like a performing monkey that would be great. I also want a servant, so if you could be my man slave that would also be great. I don't want to work, so if you could buy me things that would be great.

I'm more of a easy going fun loving laid back type of guy but if I'm around a girl I think is cute/pretty I instantly become the shy silent type until I get to know you better
