Okay; here's the thing my man. There is no set way to talk to girls; every girl is different and different things work for each girl. There is no guide book to this though some have written a few. All I can tell you is be yourself; and this is from personal experience; I have many female friends and have dated a number of them and still are friends to this day. Big thing is confidence, you have to have the courage even when you are terrified to speak to girls; fight through that uncertainty for the off chance that something grand can come from it. As for talking to women; be respectful. Start out simple and say Hi or hello; no need for pickup lines there is something concidered to clever and some downright feel awkward about it. Saying hi is classic and the best thing about it; it will always work setting you up for an icebreaker. Maybe comment on her lovely dress if she's wearing one. Or say you look nice tonight; keep it casual. You want to start light; cant stress that enough, you do not want to bust out telling her all about your day without being asked. Talk to her like you would talk to anyone for the first time; this will instill a feeling of comfort where she will feel at ease to continue the conversation. If she is interested she will ask you more about yourself, when doing this make sure you answer but again keep it simple, if she asks where you are from give the place dont go saying I live in this city where such and such is; came from this school etc. Give her the answer, then turn it back to her. Ask her where she's from, then from there ask what it was like there. She will feel that you are interested and paying attention. Women like a guy who will pay attention when they are speaking. Women arent like us guys where much of the time we may be speaking out our ass lol. Again "CONFIDENCE" Hope this was helpful :)

well first off you dont want to be pushy. dont invade her personal space unless she invites you to first.
id say other than personal space rules and other etiquette rules you should just be yourself. its the best way.
you just need to get out there and have a go, youll get better the more you try :)
