So guys, you want to know how to approach a woman? It's not as scary as you think. Here are five tips from a woman that you may want to take into consideration next time you see someone who catches your eye:

1. Act Naturally: Nothing is a bigger turn-off than a guy who puts on a whole act and approaches a woman with cheesy pick up lines in tow. Just be yourself and say whatever comes naturally. To act naturally, you have to be comfortable with your surroundings. Maybe the woman goes to the same gym as you or is in the same class. Approach her where you feel the most comfortable and everything else will fall into place.

2. Be Confident: A man that exudes confidence will always be noticed. Even if you're not the most attractive or fit guy, a confident guy will always stand out to me and get more attention than the pretty boy does. So what does "being confident" mean exactly? It means stand up straight, look me in the eye, and generally act like a man. Don't walk around looking down, with hunched over shoulders, and a dull expression and expect me to notice you. Sexiness comes from the inside so do your part!

3. Use Common Sense: Don't approach me if you're wearing yesterday's clothes and haven't brushed your teeth since Monday. Nothing is worse than a guy whose appearance screams "I Don't Care What I Look Like." Make sure you look presentable and trust me, we'll appreciate that.

4. Don't Interrupt: Interrupting someone while they're speaking is one of the most annoying things a guy can do. If you do this during your first conversation guys, there won't be a second one! Approach the woman, start talking, and ask her questions. We love to talk about ourselves, so ask us questions and actually LISTEN to the answers.

5. SMILE!: I can't stress this one enough. Even if you're nervous, a smile can cut through all your fear and show the woman a little warmth.

Good luck!
