Hitting on women is an art form. Many men fumble when it comes to approaching women. Kwanza in this era when you can be ostracised for merely looking at a woman the wrong way. I know I exaggerate. But the risks of messing up badly in this day we live in is high.

Taking too long to approach or start the conversation- Kwani you don't think that chick has other admirers? Get to stepping.

Flirting with your mouth instead of your whole body- A lot of attraction is displayed by non-verbal cues.

Don’t buy her a drink- You shouldn’t have to pay for her attention. That displays that you are desperate. Desperation is disgusting.

Don’t lean in or hover over her- Stand up straight and, if the music’s too loud or she’s seated, simply speak up.

Don’t wait to approach her until she’s alone- Even if she likes you, her friends will soon drag her away.

Don’t stare at her for more than three seconds before approaching- Hesitate, and you’ll either make her scared or psych yourself out.

Don’t be afraid to approach just because there are men in the group-Chances are she’s with family, friends, or co-workers, not a love interest.

Don’t open a conversation by apologizing- Phrases like “Excuse me,” “Pardon me,” and “I’m sorry” make you sound like a beggar. Be confident!

Don’t touch or grab her right away- If she touches you, say, with a smile, “Hey now, hands off the merchandise.” Let the woman lead you in this area. If she wants to be touched she will show you.

Don’t focus all your attention on her when she’s with other people- She is just someone you are attracted you, but there are other fish in the sea.

These rules all stem from one character trait, confidence. Build it and cultivate it in your life.
