Okay, so I just planned on working today but the mall was unusually crowded so I got some practice in on my breaks.

First woman was crossing her arms while walking and had a look on her face like she was in deep thought.
I try to have this habit of opening a girl as SOON as I get in the venue to get me in state.
I stop her.
Me: you look so mad, you alright?
Her: oh! Haha I'm not mad..I'm just thinking about something.
Me: (realizes that's what I meant) oh..that's what I meant to say...not mad haha.
And she continued on her way. I wasn't in state yet.

On my first bathroom break I saw a girl just about to walk into a store. She was WAY taller than me but whatever...
I straight line walk up to her.
Me: hey..before you got too far I wanted to say you are super cute...I'm Wes.( in an unenthusiastic very chill tone, like just waking up)
Her: (in the same tone) oh..thanks..I'm Jasmine.
We shook hands.
Me: what brings you to this mall instead of somewhere more interesting.
Her: I just had to go return something.
Me: yea, you look so bored like you don't even want to be here.
Her: I don't...I'd rather be in my bed.
Me: you'd rather be in my bed? (I meant to repeat what she said in a questioning tone because I didn't quite hear her right..but I had a slip of the tongue)
Me: whoops! Did I say MY bed?...I meant yours..haha
(she didn't look amused)
Me: ohhh Kay..well I'm going to let you go now.
Then she walked into the store.

The next girl wasn't a cold approach but actually a girl I already know working inside of the Journey's.
She was looking bored so I conversated with her. I also wanted to try out teasing since she is cute.
I walked up to her.
Her: how's it going?
Me: it's going. You?
Her: I'm bored...and I'm sick.
Me: you are? I couldn't even tell...I mean you do have dark spots under your eyes, hair put up and walking in a lazy way..so I guess I see it now.
Her: oh wow thanks...are you saying I look like crap?
Me: no...you actually look mighty gorgeous today for a sick person. (I really don't care when a girls hair is up)
Her: (her giving me a skeptical look)
Me: no lie. ..and plus I'm not picky as hell so you look fine to me. You're always going to be that cute Italian girl who works in Journey's.
Her: oh now your making it worse.
Me: that's not what I meant.
Her: haha I'm a girl, we always like to twist guys words around.
Me: yea I see that.
Her: thanks for the compliment though. (fist bumps me and returns to work)

Wow I suck at teasing.

The next was a couple of very tall girls walking beside me. They were somewhere in the 6 feet range...im only 5'8 so they looked like giants. I wanted to open but the first thing I thought of was how they reminded me of giraffes. So...
Me: you two must be from Africa.
They laugh. And one of them says:
Her: ha.ha.ha...like we've never heard that on before...(rolls her eyes)
Her: props to you for approaching us though.

That's the first time a girl has giving me props for talking to them so I'm just going to assume that guys are too intimidated by them that they never get approached.

A more successful teasing attempt was another girl I knew working at a cologne and perfume kiosk. She was blasting music so I walked up and said:
Me: there's been complaints about the volume of your music...(in an authoritative voice)
She looked up and saw me half smiling at her then started smiling.
Me: got ya!
Her: haha whatever...
Me: I'm just here to shower you with compliments as usual. (wiggles my fingers downwards like they are rain falling then I walk away.)

I understand that none of these actually had a process and I didn't seem to be taking it anywhere but then lastly there was... Mina.
Mina was at a gum-ball machine trying to buy some Reese's Pieces.
I walked to her, put my hand on her elbow and...
Me: I saw you from over there and I had to come say that you're cute before you left.
Her: oh thank you! Here can you help me with this?
She's trying to twist the handle on the machine. She pulls her coins back out and looks at them and shows it to me.
Her: these are quarters right? Or are they nickels?
Me: quarters. (I take them..put them back in the machine, twist it, and out comes her candy.)
Her: thank you. (Grabs the candy from the machine)
Me: anyways, my name is Wes. (shakes her hand)
Her: I'm Mina.
Me: Nina?
Her: Mina.
Me: ohhh..okay. You must be Hispanic though...
Her: actually I'm Russian.
Me: oh wow..you have this whole Latina look about you. Dark hair, caramel skin...never would've guessed.
Her: haha yea.
We're actually standing very close to each other, face to face. I've never been this close to the face of a girl I've just met. She was looking me in the eyes and seemed very interested.
Me: so what are you doing here today, instead of somewhere more interesting?
Her: (I forgot her answer...I was thrown off guard by her asking me a question back) what school do you go to?
Me: what school do YOU go to?
Her: (name of school)
Me: oh..I go there too..I totally thought you were in high school or something.
Her: nope I'm in college...so haha you also go to (name of school)?
Me: yup...so I guess you might see my face around campus..haha I can tell you want to.
Her: yea I do :) (I was really surprised this girl was into me..the tension was so great)
Me: oh wait, I just forgot I'm not sure if I'm coming back or transferring...
Her: oh, where are you transferring to?
Me: ah..doesn't matter ( I've answered this question too many times this week.)
Me: so you must be a 90's kid since you graduated class of two thousand...(looks at her from the side of my eyes and raises eyebrow)
Her: yea...
Me: so you're probably...18?...19?...20? (I shouldn't have cared so much about this and moved on to other things. It shows because...)
Her: I'm not telling you.
Me: the point is you look young.
Her: thanks...well I have to go because I have to go do so & so.
Me: alright...well let's see each other again...let's meetup for coffee or...?
Her face is just blank
Me: I don't really drink coffee either so we should...
Her: I'll just see you at school...if its meant to be we'll see each other again
Me: so you're one of those people who believe in destiny huh?
Her: yea..nice to meet you (and she walks away)

"if it's meant to be then we'll see each other again" are you serious? Call Disney because we have a missing character from one of their unrealistic sappy movies. Lol.

overall I'm pretty bad with teasing and they seem to come off as insults. I'm going to go give the "teasing women the right way" article another read. I'd also like to know how you guys accomplish teasing a girl the right way, like any tips and tricks not on the article. Maybe some examples of your teasing in action.

Thanks for the insights kick bomber.
I'm officially done with asking girls their age now, it seems to be messing up a lot of my interactions. I'll only talk about it if the girl brings it up. I only cared about it because I wanted to make sure I wasn't talking to girls way underage. See, when I was 18 I dated a girl who was 14 and everyone in my highschool had a problem with it and it spread across the school. People started giving me the nickname Pedobear. I guess it still left a scar and I unconsciously screen for girls around my age.
Never considered touching as a replacement of complimenting. How might one do this smoothly?
Do I touch her shoulders, arms, waist? Since we're standing up, what kind of touches show "I want to fuck you" without being too forward. Example: touching a girls vagina.

Hey Wes,

With teasing you have to be pretty careful about where and how far you go. You should try and stay away from sensitive subjects like looks, style, intelligence, etc. So teasing about journey girl's looks may cause/have caused her to go cold on you. I'm not a master or anything, so I'd suggest you read the blog post about teasing: https://www.girlschase.com/content/teasing-girl-right-way

I agree with Kickbomber that you should not apologize for what you say. You need to own it and not back down. You also need to stop giving into social pressure, and could throw it back at her. Giving into the pressure will make you less attractive. Read this article for a better understanding (and it will help with other situations and such): https://www.girlschase.com/content/social-pressure-surprisingly-important-getting-girls

A lot of what Kickbomber says is accurate, but if you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
