Fix your game (because she's heard it all before)

Relax and set your approach on Deeply Subtle. Make talking to you her decision, which will make her feel better about herself - and you. Never butt in while she's with her friends.

Wait until she's alone, then issue a drive-by compliment (keep it above the neck or below the ankles).

"We're used to men approaching us," says Lisa Altalida, the author of The Pocket Idiot's Guide to Getting Girls, "but if a man says something and then walks away like he doesn't want anything, it piques our curiosity." Now she'll feel in control. Is she glancing your way? That means you've been cleared for approach.

Mastered the drive-by compliment? Now it's time to take it to the next level
