Aside from having the proper attitude for dealing with women, you need to have specific attitudes ingrained for approaching total strangers.

When approaching, just walk up to the woman and say FUCK IT. Keep yourself in the frame that you’re just goofing around and you don’t need to do well, just as long as you do it and have fun with it. Even if you don’t get the girl, you got to practice your skill-set and learned how to do it better next time. There is NO downside!

Often the single woman is very lonely. Not many guys seriously ask hot women on dates, and when they’re asked they’ll take advantage of it even if you’re not their knight in shining armour. You have to understand that even though many women receive attention constantly, they don’t actually get asked out on dates. This can be for many reasons and the initial one to come to mind is that all of the guys thought she’d say no. They may think she’s too good for them and she may not come across as the approachable type. SO GO FOR IT!

Be super-confident, presupposing that she wants your company and will give her number to you...Or more.

It’s not necessary to be a gorgeous hunk of male to have success approaching women. But if you have some physical flaw that you could go and take care of, it’s just another strike against you. Just like a baseball player can have two strikes against him and still hit a home run, you can be unshaven and overweight and still get a number. But why risk it?

Strive to keep yourself looking your best physically at all times. This doesn’t mean being TOO concerned about your appearance; it means keeping your nails clean and short, your hands callus-free as much as possible, your "UNI-BROW" groomed, and your hair trimmed at least every 3 weeks to keep it neat. Be clean-shaven (unless you’re going for the unshaven look), and keep your body clean! This means showering before going out, and controlling body odor with a good deodorant. Brush your teeth and chew on mint gum to keep your breath fresh.

Get enough sleep every night so that you’re in top shape for approaching. Avoid drugs and alcohol that will leave you with mood swings, or tired and bloodshot eyes. If you absolutely have to take a couple drinks to loosen up on a night out on the town, keep it reasonable. Avoid beer if you can, because it leaves your breath smelling bad and makes it obvious you’ve been drinking.

Vodka has a tendency to be undetectable on someone’s breath a few minutes after ingestion, so go with that.

You should also attempt to keep yourself in shape as much as possible. Look into proper eating habits and stay physically active. A complaint that many guys have is that they don’t have enough TIME to work out. The way around this is to focus more on QUALITY in your workouts rather than quantity of exercise. Get in the gym, be intense, lift heavy weights slowly, do intense cardio, and go home and rest. Doing things this way, you can get the results from 2-3 workouts a week that someone might get working out 5 times a week while taking it easy, resting a lot between sets, etc.

Pay attention to your posture. If you find yourself hunched over a lot, make a habit of holding your chest up. This alone has an amazing effect on your posture, forcing your head up and your shoulders back.

You can also help your success by going out and doing certain things. If you’re pale, go to the tanning salon once every week or two to give your skin a dash of color. See the dentist to have your teeth whitened, or pick up a kit on eBay to do it yourself. If you’re unusually hairy, keep your back and neck waxed, or undergo laser hair removal treatments.

Make an effort to keep up with the latest styles. Look at ads in men’s magazines like Maxim, Stuff, or FHM (or GQ if you’re older than say, 35) to get an idea of what looks are in. Then go about looking for similar styles, and picking up the items you like best to build your wardrobe. If your budget is a problem, try on the clothing in the store, and when you know your size for that designer/company go onto eBay and look for things in your size. Things needn’t be brand-name either; go buy cheap clothes if you want, and just get rid of the indicators that the clothes are cheap (remove the leather tab on the back of cheap jeans, for example). Really, some people will tell you to buy expensive, well-made clothes that will last you years. That’s not the point here. You want cheap clothes that will last you a year or two, that you can replace the following year. Workmanship won’t be a big deal either; unless someone is scrutinizing your clothes carefully, they won’t notice that the seam of your pants is a little crooked around the ankle, for example. Although women DO tend to notice details (like if your shoes are scuffed or your belt fits your pants), they won’t be going over the workmanship of your clothes with a magnifying glass. And by the time your clothes are off and she can see the tags identifying it as cheap crap, you’re already where you want to be!

Of course, if you’ve got the money to spend, go for quality AND style.
