Go with the quiet guy at the bar who looks sober and holding onto his first beer for hours. He is out to find someone. Ask him what time it is, and then the weather...he is shy, that's why he won't initiate, but once he gets going...

Good advice. I'm kinda shy 1 on 1, but if I'm in a large group setting I'm the Life of The Party. While I've gone out on a number of dates within the past 6 months...I'm a bit disillusioned with it-in general. Going out this weekend to a bar with my #1 gal pal. We think it could be fun.

Guys only approach 2 or more women, in a gang. As far as I know, most guys are not very comfortable hitting on a woman who is hanging out with her girl-friend. They know they can't split one off, because the other gets protective, or you yourself will not abandon your friend to talk one-on-one with a guy. And it's not very comfortable to talk to 2 women at once, or it's not gonna be the talk you want to hear. Also, most guys don't think that girls hanging out with another g/f is out to find a date, but more likely they are not looking for anyone. Just some advices.

Definitely something to consider. I just like going with my g/f because she is a "second pair of eyes" and vice versa. Yeah, it's a protective situation, but if a guy is really serious about getting to know me...I don't think he would be intimidated by my wing-woman. I'm looking forward to a night on the town...doesn't happen often...but when it does...look out!!!!!!!!!1
