Becoming the Alpha Male: Leave Your Friends Behind to Meet Women
If you want to talk to a girl, and she's been returning your
glances from across the room, and you'd like to increase your
chances of "running into her", you've got to separate yourself
from your group.
There's almost no way she's going to come up to you, and
introduce herself to you in front of a bunch of people that she
doesn't know - especially if the majority of them are all guys
(unless she's really forward).
So, you've got to leave your group to become more accessible in
order to increase your chances of an "accidental" meeting.
Quite often, once you do this, she will also leave her little
group, making it "oh so much easier" for you to approach her.
Remember, big groups can be intimidating.
Also, never go up to a group of girls with your group of guy
friends.
At best it complicates things, and at worst it freaks them out.
It can be really intimidating for a few girls to see a group of
guys all coming over to them. Even if you all have the best of
intentions, they will automatically assume the worst.
It can totally complicate things for you as well, because
chances are one of your buddies may have his eye on the girl
that you do. After all, I'm sure you have pretty good taste, and
at least ONE of your buddies is bound to think the same way.
This may cause both of you to go for the same girl, effectively
ruining both of your chances for success.
This principle is illustrated perfectly in the movie, A
Beautiful Mind with Russell Crowe. If you haven't seen it, go
watch it. It will illustrate this point very well.
