"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It's not the headphone thing that I fear in this situation, just coming with a sufficiently valid excuse to stop them in the middle of their exercise routine.

I don't think "Hi" would cut it.

I tried that the other day arrogant girl just ignored me. It was worth a try she was a at least a 9. She was an out of towner so she was probaly naturally a little nervous.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Put your hand over imaginary earphones and dance/bob your head in a funny playful way when you approach her.

Cupra, I understand you entirely. You want to have a legit reason to step into her space and interupt her ritual; you are now cutting into her personal time. More importantly, you'd like to have something to say that justified this interruption. I'm a little more sensitive to your concern than noob, so Ill recommend a few things, but to be level with you, i wouldnt try and talk to a jogging woman with headphones. In my experience, the best results are garned when no one is in a rush; moments of leisure, and no imminency to complete a task. For example, i'd rather talk to that same woman if she was simply resting in a park instead of running through it.

That said, I have talked to a female who had on headphones. She was sitting next to me on a bus, listening to her music, staring out the window. I realized I might not have had another chance to talk to her, so i simply tapped on her shoulder, she took out her headphones, I asked for her name, she gave me it, I gave her mine. We kicked it briefly.

In your case, jogging females engulfed in their music, sweating in the hot sun, reaching to meet that mile and a half--- you've got to have balls of steel.

Track 101, breath conservation is top priority. I doubt a jogging woman would be willing to talk with you, expending unneccessary energy. Thats what she goes to the bar, friend's party, club, or social gathering for. When she goes jogging, she isnt looking for someone to talk to.

The alpha male jerk probably has the part of the brain turned off that would worry about her reaction for you invading her personal space and telling her to take the headphone.

Alpha make jerk would act first then think on his feet later. Alpha male jerk will probably motion to take her head-phones off or touch her on the shoulder to get her attention -- and then once you do that THEN worry about what you will say or tell her.

Even if you just say 'hi' and it goes ackward, the alpha male jerk is unphased...and simply goes to another girl that had headphones on and tries again. Take AFC part of brain off.

Were it that easy for some, corrector..

All these terms, and systematic rules...

Simply be natural.

To the OP, i'm simply stating that there are easier ways to meet women. Some circumstances are more favorable than others. Regardless of circumstance, however, you are always taking a risk when talking to women, whether she is jogging with headphones on, or is lounged on your living room sofa with 'converse with me' written on her attire. You have to decide in which situation involves the risk worth taking.

I carry little respect for those who considers anyone who scrutinizes the elements in a given circumstance an "AFC". Some individuals make moves more conservatively than others.

We all know at the conclusion of the day, we have to make that move, but honestly, i question those who impetuously spill out textbook answers, such as 'just go in and talk to her', or, for a better example, Corrector's response, and wonder do those same individuals practice what they preach, consistently.

I do not fear approaching women, but even I have my days when i fold under analysis, or turn from an opportunity. It is called being human. Do not sacrafice the sensitivity of anyone's situation for politically correct replies.

Ultimately, i'll never tell you not to talk to a girl. Ever. But that 'alpha male jerk' stuff, or this rule and that rule, section 38 code blue; men are still humans, and i don't believe my initial response, or those like it, was "AFC", simply because we preferred a better situation than a female with headphones on.
