Just wanted to canvas opinion on the best way for a single woman to show a man in a club she's interested? I hate the direct approach, but often find subtlety doesn't work.

"Say hello perhaps "

Yes, I do all the chat, and think I have good social skills. It's best if things develop naturally from talking, of course, but don't want to monopolise or restrict someone. Trouble is if he goes off, someone else usually nabs him! I find it a difficult balance.

Actually you're wrong, men rarely approach me in clubs which is why I am asking for advice.

Married women have the same problem to.I tell wife if she likes the look of a guy to give him a smile or a wink. That's what I do to the ladies.then we either chat later and progress should be easy for you. We do find some guys hesitant when she with me. So I will either may trip to bar or toilet to give them a bit of space

I’m not sure as I’m a bit upfront, I don’t want to spend all night just chatting away I’d rather whisper sweet nothings in your ear or moan loudly as I’m being fked or played with (and vice versa) instead, I usually start of with a five to ten min giggle and chat then I’d be upfront and ask if they wanted to join me in a room??? That’s for male and females!

I regularly do that.

Mrs H is quite passive when we are in a club and I can count on one hand the number of times she has made the first move with a guy.

Quite often we will notice a guy looking at her but hasn't the courage to approach her when I am there.

I just wander off for the toilet or just a walk around the club for a few minutes and more often than not he will be chatting to her when I return.

It's usually not long before they are off to a playroom.

I wonder why men don't have the courage to approach? It's a club for God's sake! And equally difficult for a woman to make the first move.

I used to smile and say hello to guys I wasn’t interested in, just being friendly I’d hate it if they took that as I want you!!

I think clubs are really hard, you either get some dick approaching you thinking just coz you’re there you’ll have sex with with him or you end up dancing round the subject and speak to them later only to realise you both really wanted each other but neither wanted to make the first move.

I can see the difficulty. I’m an optimist and believe the overwhelming majority of people are polite and respectful so would act the same in a club as any social setting. It’s natural to want to catch someone’s eye, smile, chat even.I guess this is skewed by some men (not all) going to clubs with limited interests other than wanking (the wanking dead is one description) and perving. They lack social skills. I guess if you encounter a couple of those then the barriers go up.

Party hats perhaps that say ‘ I’m nice, talk to me’

I am traditional and not comfortable in a predatory role, and frankly why should I encourage men to be lazier than they (often) already are? Believe me, I am not shy and find it easy to chat to and approach strangers but my ideal is a situation when both genders make an equal effort.

I've been saying that to Mrs H for years, but it's very rare that she will go for it.

Quite often she will say to me "oh he is nice" I tell her to go and say

hello or something to him, but she nearly always bottles it.

It's not unknown for me to approach a guy on her behalf.

I know it’s not seen as the correct way to behave these days but I still prefer a man to approach me and make me feel beautiful, flatter me a bit.

I find it really easy to chat and flirt with men but unfortunately for me, if I fancy someone I go all shy and can’t bring myself to make eye contact (unless they approach me, then I’m fine!). So I usually get the guys I’m not interested in, interested in me!

The vast majority of men don't get it but the universal female signal of interest is eye contact. Where there's no interest it will be missing, denied, or quickly curtailed. Where there is interest it will be repeated.

It's a subtle invitation. But repeat eye contact is an invitation nonetheless. Of course, it's not an invitation to fuck. Indeed it may not even denote sexual attraction. But it does suggest an openness to engage with you which simply isn't there when it's missing, denied, or curtailed.

This should work at clubs with those men who have a certain understanding of women. The rest? Club em over the back of the head and drag them off to your cave

I was once overheard saying to Him something along the lines of fuuuuuuck me that lady over there is gorgeous ... luckily her fella was behind me at the bar so he introduced us

I try to make eye contact and smile at someone I like the look of ... if they smile back I might go over ... depends if the prosecco fuelled confidence has kicked in yet

I just go in for the kill my rejection counter reads '3' so far this year at clubs

I'm not one to wait around, if I like the look of someone I go chat/flirt and see where it leads

If a rejection it's always a polite maybe later, more often they have gone of with someone not long after, I've been around in the club scene to know, maybe later is a polite no

It dosent stop me from trying, some men are shy to approach first

I've been to a few clubs now, as a single guy, as many of the regular forum users will know, and I have been far from 'lazy' when trying to approach people inside

I find myself having to walk on eggshells, trying to find that balance between 'polite and respectful', and 'full of himself'. I've never walked around, cock in hand, like these 'wank zombies' people often refer to, and the bulk of my visits I have largely been ignored, or worse; viewed through the dead eyes of 'Oh no, not another single guy trying his luck

'. It is interesting to see a female's perspective for a change, and I wish others would be just that little bit more forward in future

see.... i find it interesting that so many people sit back....

see... there are two ways i look at it...

1) if "everyone" waits on "someone" else to do "something"..... then invariably "nothing" will end up being done

2) you can all sit on your arses and be reactive, and hence this type of thread.... OR you can go out, get off those derrieres and be PROACTIVE.....

hunter.... or hunted.... at least if you are the hunter you are the one in control!

But you will find most women prefer the guys to make first move. Of all the guys we have met at club. She has only ever made first move once. 1 she really fancied this guy who had looked at her several times 2 it was our first time at social so she bit the bullet. It ended up a very good night. And led to a couple of meets with him. A few do come up some she likes some she don't. She now let's me know so I can give them the go to go further than chat. Or for me to invite them to join in while we are playing. You can see the look on sone guys facing when they realise they have missed there chance. They not shy at comming forward the next time we see them at club. For the ones she not interested in I let down gently.they still get a kick out of watching us. But the worst guys in club are the ones who come up say hello and think they can just expect to get laid because their are women at club.

Can only speak for myself obviously. I would welcone a lady coming over just to chat let alone more. If after a little bit of chat you just straight out asked me if I was up for it or not you would make my job so much easier. I am useless with hints so I would much prefer the direct aporoach.

Spot the signs they are interested. 6ft away looking in your direction on and of multiple times, they like what they see - mirror there gaze. if they come to 3ft do the same and stand more directly towards you, definitely into you. If you have an Open posture, smile and widen your eyes as you gaze. They should approach you from that point if they are man enough.. got to love body language... happy hunting

Thinking that it is the men being lazy is the problem. Read other replies here to see why.

The same night in a club, I acknowledged a couple and was given the eyes averted treatment. I was just coming back from the loo. I didn't think anything about it. A few hours later I was sat in the bar area with the lady who was accompanying me for the evening. The same couple from earlier walked passed and where all smiles and the bloke nodded to me. Go figure.

Humans! What a complex complicated lot we are. All different of course. I guess the challenges are from some guys not wanting to be seen as too pushy, and women a little wary as they may have had unwanted attention or a bad experience.

What I’d respond to is if someone :

1) Caught my attention then Winked at me.

2) Looked at me from time to time (holding their gaze for 2seconds) and smiling might get some of my attention too.

3) Motioned someone over would probably be the strongest one. This one is difficult to ignore and it’s hard to walk away from. If he looked around and pointed at himself, just nod and motion him over again.

I’ve found the less I think or worry about stuff the more things happen. I know it’s easier said than done but go out to have fun and you just never know. If you go out looking for a man then you don’t even have fun x

I was once in Cupid’s during the day only about 8 people in there. I often went in and just chatted with the staff and regulars but didn’t play. This day there was a stunning guy in there, we all got talking as a group but he didn’t acknowledge me at all. Think I went off to the sauna or something and when I returned he was taking this lady who was extremely large down to the playrooms. I thought to myself oh I obviously not his type of woman (that was my way of dealing with the fact I couldn’t have him

). Anyway the next time I was in the bar staff told me he’d been asking about me, and been in a few times looking for me and he’d only taken the other lady as he thought I wasn’t interested. Guess when nobody makes the first move you get nowhere

Good point.

It's fine saying that women supposedly want men to make the first move, but when many women go nuts when a man so much as looks in her direction, what the heck are they supposed to do?!

Yes, and perhaps their aim that evening was to hook up with another couple

Lets see. Ways women have let me know they were interested in a club. 1 and 2 being the most common, others one offs:

1)Sat next to me in the hot tub and said Hi, then put a hand on my knee. If it's not brushed away and chatting commences, the hands tend to wander.

2)Look at me and deliberately smile. Then I'll try and engineer a reason to be nearby and if you let me join in any conversation happening. I'll figure things are on if you keep talking and don't move away/cut me out.

3)Lady at the bar telling the bar staff loudly she'd like someone to suck off while her tea cooled down. Subtle that one.

4)Lying on the round bed in Chams with her legs spread as far apart as you can, saying "come on guys".

5)Lady walking past saying "hey I saw you last week, join in if you see me later."

But basically if you don't turn your back on me, or tell me it's not on in one way or another. I'll assume it's on and slowly get more and more "intimate" unless/until you stop me.

What I do not understand is good looking guys walking around, not talking to anybody but other blokes, and finally complaining they get no action.

But basically if you don't turn your back on me, or tell me it's not on in one way or another. I'll assume it's on and slowly get more and more "intimate" unless/until you stop me.

What I do not understand is good looking guys walking around, not talking to anybody but other blokes, and finally complaining they get no action."

Another interesting post, and thank you for sharing your positive experiences! Once more it becomes obvious that it's all down to WHO is in when you are

Single guys chat with other single guys because there's a kindred spirit of being by yourself in one of these places, and nobody else gravitating towards you. I spent two hours in one particular club, where nobody spoke to me at all, even though I tried to place myself at various parts in the building to be able to engage with others. A chat with another single guy about anything would have been better than feeling like an outcast, and needless to say, I won't be going there again

Subtlety doesn’t work. Go up and smile and say “hello, you look good”.

I’ve spoken to a few couples and single ladies in clubs but never managed to take it further. However, I have been asked directly by women on quite a few occasions. It seems forward women are not as rare as one might believe. They certainly showed more courage compared to me!

if a couple or woman start the conversation I feel happier and more confident to socialise. Sometimes as a single male in a club you get stuck in a catch 22 so you end up with no one talking to you. Go with flow I find chatting to anyone makes it look I might know what I am doing

Costa Blanca Spain...

Firstly I'll echo what others have said and thank the OP for a very good thread.

As I said in the earlier posts Mrs H can be quite shy when it comes to making the first move with a guy, but that isn't the end of the problem.

Even when we (or she) have got chatting to a guy she very rarely makes the first move for sex.

Once she gets talking she can't bloody well stop. She really can talk a glass eye to sleep, in 3 languages. The only thing I know is that if she hasn't moved away from the guy within about 5 minutes then she is interested. If after around 15 minutes he hasn't asked her then I will say something like "we are going for a look upstairs (or downstairs depending on the club) would you like to join us?" It usually does the trick.

On the up side there are quite a few guys she has fucked that she wouldn't usually look twice at, but they have had the personality and social skills to make it happen.

Some interesting comments here! Seems the general consensus is to be less subtle, which is difficult for me as it's against my nature, but will give it a try.

I don’t think it’s anything to do with subtlety, but not always expecting the guys to make the first move would be a better option. We’re as nervous as everyone else, and as I’ve said elsewhere; the longer I’m avoided/ignored, the greater the urge to leave overcomes the desire to stay

Approach the guy sideways like a crab while clicking your hands open and shut like claws.

Do a fancy mating dance in front of him before leaving sideways.

If he follows you've pulled

Same here. Not that I'm particularly nervous, but, obviously wrongly, I expected to be approached by men more often and assumed that if they weren't doing that then they didn't find me attractive.

Haha! If the guy dances, then easy. Best way of seduction is on the dancefloor. Haven't tried the "crab" move though!

Never been to a club so don't know the score really but is talking to people frowned upon? Seems to be the obvious solution to me.

Lmao! It really is that simple mate, in theory

My advice to you though, would be to hold off on your first club visit until you either have a lady to accompany you, or you know a guy who is a regular in the place you’ve chosen, and he can introduce you to others in there

This does my head in with women

The nature of the beast is that if a man approaches a woman in a club there is a high chance he will be rejected. If a woman approaches a man there is a very small chance she will be rejected, yet men are supposed to just suck up the rejection.

I say reject sexist stereotypes. If you fancy a man talk to him!

Doubt you would have to worry, will be plenty of men approaching you xxx

Actually you're wrong, men rarely approach me in clubs which is why I am asking for advice."

I can't believe you dont get approaches! Come to Chams and I will approach you (but not in a scary weirdo way!)

The issue is social conditioning. Men are supposed to be active in these situations and women passive. Bollocks to that I Say.

Let's be clear, I am sociable and able to approach strangers, men or women, without any issue. It's the best way of making my interest known to a man that I am trying to discover. Of course, either sex can be rejected, and it's not pleasant, but if someone doesn't make a move, then nothing happens (or the object of one's desire goes off with someone else)!

"i don't see why the men are suppose to be the really forward ones and the women are...

if you like someone.... be the hunter!!!

Thinking that it is the men being lazy is the problem. Read other replies here to see why.

Or maybe it's just a case of people being there for different reasons?

The reasons changed between them seeing me as a sibgle guy and seeing me as a couple?

Yes, and perhaps their aim that evening was to hook up with another couple "

Well that proves my point. I only acknowledged them. Made no move as such. They didn't want to risk giving me as a single chap any encouragement i guess. And that is a reason why I would welcome a direct approach from anyone to avoid any confusion.

Ive found the best way is post on here in advance that you're going and want to meet single guys. Get chatting online then its much easier once you're there to meet up. I always did this with couples when I was going on my own to clubs. Would then get to play several times and feel comfortable knowing I was meeting people I'd previously become acquainted with. Now as a regular its much easier and more fun. I just walk round with a big smile and when I catch peoples eye its with a knowing grim that we're all naughty dirt bags

Spot on, this is pretty much what we do. First couple of times we went to clubs we were too wary and just stood back, played with each other but didn’t really engage, then we started to arrange to meet, sometimes we played with them, sometimes not but we felt more open and our body language meant we ended up talking to others as well.

We have often thought about going seperately to see how it would work as singles, it is different for couples. As many have said, just saying hi is a really good start - we have never been rude to people that come and say hi, and we have also said hello to people - sometimes successfully!

I would love to hear how this experiment worked out for you both! If you do go through with it, you would have to visit a club you haven’t been to previously though, so you would be unlikely to bump into someone you already know. And of course, as you are an actual couple, you can ‘average out’ the price differentials between you
