My "way" of building confidence. Is it rude or not?

[iCatch]

i'm a college freshman and i've started making better eye contact when i talk to a girl. i still can't really approach random girls though.

i read somewhere that checking someone out shows a lot of confidence. not in a creepy way though.

basically when i make eye contact with a random girl i see when i'm walking around campus, i'll look her in the eye, give a quick "up and down" and look back into her eyes and then look away.

does this show confidence or is it just rude? i won't stare or anything. just a really quick glance to help build up my confidence in a way

If she liked you doing it she would have smiled or looked back at some point.

didn't even do it yet. i mean just walking around campus doing it to all the hot girls i see and then just walking away. i'll approach when i feel comfortable enough.

taking small steps here.

would a girl find it offensive though? what would be a good comeback if she found it offensive?

Why don't you just look into her eyes and when she looks at you smile at her?
