When you are meeting girls or women you dont know how do you meet them?

At work it I would say, hi, im alex but a handshake sometimes feels wrong with women.

Its different when meeting girls who you dont know in other places such as on nights out, parties or just (like today) in the park for fun. (no not that type of fun!)

My mum and dads (women) friends i would usually kiss on the cheek and sometimes hot girls. But the latter seems awekward to do sometimes. Plus i think if you fancy them and kiss them on the cheek you chances of pulling them are reduced.

Its just so much easier with guys as you can shake their hand or if in a big group just say something like "hi mate". (for gay people im sure its not the same)

I normally give a very friendly greeting but keep my ground. Going in for a hug seems a bit strange first off, and shaking a girls hand is too formal.

Save the hug for the goodbye :)
 
I bounce off them. I don't touch them unless they approach me. If they offer their hand it'll be a joke kiss on the back of the hand or a handshake, if they come for a hug/cheek kiss they get one.
 
Do whatever you're comfortable with. If you're comfortable with it, it'll be normal. If you're not, it won't.

Girls will usually just comply to be polite, as long as you're not totally weird.
 
The older they get the more forward they are.
Last night I had 3 women asking me for a bonk.

The funniest was one who said :
"Whats up Dave, you look down?"
"I think I've ****** that bass speaker on the PA"
"Well I wish you'd hurry up and **** me"
 
How I greet woman usually depends on the situation.

If I'm working I shake hands. If its outside of work I usually hug and kiss on the cheek.

Either way - they both feel odd - but thats just because I'm a typical UK guy who doesn't know what to do with himself in these situations.

Now - If it was America or our European counterparts - they would be straight in there.

Americans tend to be more reserved in my experience, preferring a handshake whilst Europeans like French, Italian and Spanish will often go to kiss you on the cheek. Three times sometimes. :o
 
Thats what I mean.

At least they know what they are at. I don't know which is the norm any more for the UK. Do we kiss or shake - or just stand there like some 12 year old schoolboy ?

Most chav ladies here would hit you a slap if you kissed them on the cheek and would look at you funny if you went to shake their hand.

And that is just the blokes.

As to how I'll greet a girl it depends on what the situation is and how well I know her but I don't think there is simply one greeting that is appropriate for all circumstances. :)
 
Depends how classy they are. Most of them don't expect a handshake, so you'd leave an impression straight away :)
 
high five tbh

where's that high five thread, can't remember who has it in his sig, the funny guy with himself in dancing clothes in his sig
 
If some random guy i had just met kissed me on the cheek i'd be out of there as quick as my legs would carry me, that just weird. Fine for people you already know but not for a first meeting. Handshaking is ok if you are being introduced by someone to someone else but for approaching someone yourself it seems too formal.
I'd just go for "hi, i'm (your name here)".
