No matter how real those persons are when someone approached me on the street and try to make friends with me... especially if that's a guy, I will talk with the person but wouldn't really take them seriously. Who knows what they want from you right? Lot of jerks and fools are out in the street, it's hard to trust a stranger anymore. Well, unless the person was a good friend of someone we know. Then that will be fine. But a total stranger? Oh and about the label, I don't think it should be labelled us picking up, it's just making friends.

to be honest i have friends who labeled themselves as "PIck up artist".. they seduce and flirt strangers.- they still have several rejections. For me as a GUY i really still dont label my self picking up woman..or a pick up artist.. its just that iam a GUY who admires Womans who i meet on the streets.. and i do really like and love the activity of meeting and attracting woman on the street..:D I am a Filipino..i know the world out there is a BIT conservative..so i always begin OPENING a Conversation with an "OPINION" or "asking an opinion" then transition to To "GENUINE Interest" of knowing the woman..but in a friendly manner , not really romantic.

Those who labelled themselves 'Pick up artist' are the type of guys who just try out with different woman not because they like the person, they do it for fun and 'bragging rights' I guess. Good that you have a genuine interest when you try to talk to a woman you see on the street. The common thing men do is to ask about something like time, bus route, that is okay when trying to open up a conversation Thanks for the BR, Konrad

to be frank,i'm not want to make friends on the street.because society is so complex, you didn't know what are thinking and we are so young .Haven't many experice to know people,especially strangers. in fact,many girls want to meet handsome boy and fall in love at first time encounter.it is very romantic.but isn't real.i think.

yeah. i assume your in a conservative asian country like mine. it so creepy to directly approach without any appropriate intention or by malicious intentions. i am not really into romance.(you know what i mean, its like stepping into marriage zone) i think i rather be more friendly in meeting woman on the streets especially if she is so attractive..
