Frustratingly, I never quite got the hang of approaching while walking. What typically happens is:
A) I smile and the girl smiles back and walks by
B) The girl smiles and I smile back and she walks by
C) A or B then I say "hi" she says the same and walks by
D) A or B then she says hi and walks by
Should I run after them? I'm not really actively searching but I'm still keeping my eyes open and trying to improve my conversation skills. You guys are great!

Walk with her and offer value and good emotion to the interaction.

Hey Slay

Do you mean with your hands or do you say "stop" or "excuse me" first. And what if she doesn't stop for you?
This is something that I find intimidating cause if she walks on then everyone around realises you don't know her and where trying to pick her up.

Hey Bryant and JRob,

Signal her to stop, what i did was....i saw two girls coming my way, i was walking too. I saw them first few foot away and they saw me too. I look away and when we got close.....i stopped,.....raise my hand in Stop gesture while smiling sexely ( don't raise above your shoulder ) .....and they both stop.

Then i ask them direction where i need to go. The girl seemed Shocked ( feels like she was expecting something more) and shows me the right direction. And i thanked her and we all went on our ways.

And then i heard a voice ..."excusd me" ....it was a girl in a car with her husband. She asked me the same direction i asked the girls. ( i was in different city that day for few hours, so didn't no. Close them)

I gave her the direction, her husband seemed to not engage, he was actually driving the car away from me.

Pre-selection eh?

And don't worry about girl rejecting you in front of few people. I've had girl turning me down in a fully crowded bus man.

You need to face rejections too, in order to be uneffective with these low feelings and still stand tall.

Hope it helps.

I have 2 ideas how it could be done:

1. To ask her for a direction and after she shows the direction to tell her immediately: "Actually, I know where it is, I just wanted to talk to you and didn't found nothing else to say :) We can walk togehter for a while if you want.".
2. To ask her: "Excuse me, I would like to ask you - do you think it is ok to approach a girl directly when walking, just like this and start talking/walking with her? What do you think about it? "

I'm not experienced at all, but this is probably what I would do. It's simple, direct, genuine and you don't have to think about what to say. Just flirt immediately. What do you think guys?
