Hello Maxime, Thank you for emailing us.
There are a lot of guys that are good picking up girls, but don't foolyourself into thinking that you are either destined to be good with girls ornot, that is a thing that every guy needs to learn. Don't think that you will only find girls to date in a pub or a bar; theyare everywhere; in stores, in class, at work, etc. you just need to pay moreattention and open up to a much wider environment, the best thing to do islook for one that you will feel more confident in it. As soon as you see a girl and you think she is cute, go talk to her.
Depending of where you are, you can start with really neutral questions like"What do you think of this place?" because it really doesn't matter what yousay, you just need to be a little confident, comfortable and in control ofthe situation, trust yourself, girls love that. Try not to give those cheap compliments like how nice she is, or how cuteshe is or even worse "When I saw your face I thought I died and went toheaven" (and I've heard that one), she got that from 10 different guysduring the day, just try not to be the eleventh. You can handle the laterconversation, so just try not to do what every guy does when trying to pickup a girl, don't focus on her appearance because she will appreciate yourcompliment, but wont find you attractive or interesting. If you ask a girl "what to do to meet a girl", she will always say, you justneed to be yourself, just treat her normally like one of your friends, donot treat her differently, that will make it a lot easier for you and I'msure she will fall for that.
You said that you are a pretty funny and friendly guy, take advantage ofthose qualities, don't think that if you talk to a girl and she's notinterested in you, is the end of the world. Remember, there are a lot of types of girls with different tastes, you mightfind a couple that are not interested in you, but if you don't make a move,you might miss a girl that was attracted to you, just waiting for you tohave the guts to go talk to her. I hope I could help you out a little, be confident you have nothing to lose,and let us know how it goes
