walk over to a girl and ask her again some question which she cant answer with yes or no. for example: i dont knw this town too well, can you recomend a good club?
That's the same "give options but no escape route" tactic they recommend to telemarketers and insurance salesmen. I don't know if it's worked in your case, but I would tend to think that any intelligent girl will notice that you're trying to play that game, and won't be impressed.

And sometimes acting like a bumbling stuttering idiot can help you.

Honestly!

They could be sympathetic to your state, and some girls think its cute!

I've always seen self confidence and intelligence work well above bumbling.

Getting a reaction of you poor thing works only for a few instances, but as to ensnaring persay...they want something of stronger material.

I mean one way of curing shyness is simply accepting that women are human as well...seriously it goes a long way.

Which is a shock to most people I know, because I constantly hear from either my mom, relatives, friends etc. How I am a good looking guy and I get lot's of positive reinforcement from people about that (and have been since I was little esp. from complete strangers). Whenever I see a girl I find attractive or when I get the vibe that a girl finds me appealing or if a girl approaches me, I freeze, My mind goes totally blank, my shyness kicks in, and I speak in two word sentences. I would say normally I am a talkative person who has a good personality and I'm funny (or try to be). How can I get over my shyness with the Ladies.
flirt with everything that moves. I'm using that philosophy now, and aside from it's fun, it's also great practice for socializing. . . and often leads to quite nice things ^^.

What I do is I just start throwing any words that comes into my head even if they don't make much sense and I keep on changing the topic and then going back to the original topic when I thought something about that. Either that or imagine her as being more ugly :wink:
