Recently, I came across an interesting topic online about how to approach a girl you like in a mall. Honestly, this topic reminded me of some experiences from my younger days when I too hesitated in malls, unsure of how to start a conversation. Today, I want to talk about this topic and share some tips that I find quite useful.
First and foremost, I believe confidence is key. As Scottie Barnes from the Raptors says, don't be shy, be confident. In fact, many girls appreciate confident guys. Even if you're a bit nervous at first, as long as you can stay composed, the other person will likely develop a favorable impression of you.
Secondly, timing is crucial. In a mall, you can choose more relaxed environments like a coffee shop or a bookstore, where the atmosphere is usually more laid-back and conducive to starting a conversation. You can begin with simple topics, such as asking her opinion on a book or discussing a product you both are looking at. This approach doesn't seem abrupt and naturally bridges the distance.
Moreover, I think sincerity is essential. Don't approach someone just for the sake of it; genuinely try to understand the other person and show your interest and respect. For example, you can find common ground in her attire or the items she's looking at and use that as a conversation starter. This not only makes the other person feel your sincerity but also makes the conversation flow more naturally.
Another small tip is to maintain a sense of humor. Appropriate humor can ease the tension and make the other person feel relaxed. Of course, humor should be moderate; you don't want the other person to think you're trying too hard to be funny. You can find humorous elements in the surroundings, like an interesting decoration in the mall or a funny billboard, which can serve as material for your humor.
Lastly, don't forget the right moment to ask for the phone number. When the conversation is going well, you can naturally suggest exchanging contact information. You might say, "I really enjoyed talking with you today, maybe we can hang out again sometime?" This approach doesn't seem too direct and lets the other person feel your sincerity.
Actually, approaching someone isn't as difficult as it seems; the key is to relax, stay confident, and be sincere. I hope these tips are helpful to you. If you have similar experiences or thoughts, feel free to share them in the comments section, and let's learn from each other!
