For a 16 year old, there isn't any problem doing cold approaches. Take your time and learn to have fun with women. If you have pussy on the brain all the time and go out talking the girls, it's gonna be counter-active to your goal.
Now, im one of those people that think there can be a time where teaching young boys about girls is inappropriate if there too immature to handle it. It's not really defined by a number but by the level of maturity.
I wouldn't teach my 10 year old about how to pick up women because I know he couldn't handle it. People that start learning about this when they're immature tend to have warped ideas about the whole process, and those guys tend to usually only be in it for one thing: sex.
I dont know you personally but if you feel you're mature enough to not only handle approaches, but mature enough to get into a relationship with a girl, sexually and mentally, then go for it. Noone can define a person by a number. If you feel confident getting involved with a woman on more than just one level (sex) then go for it.
What separates the so-called "alpha" males from guys like us is that were aware of the entire process that's involved with women. We know what we want and what we dont, and we dont discriminate between women, but if she isnt a fit for us : Friend Zone Time.
We dont make or break our relationships down to one of two options: Mind-blowing sexual relationship or bust. We know that alot more goes into the grand scheme of it all. When you have a grasp on that, instead of just looking to score, thats when you're mature enough.
I do wish you the best, and you're reasons are your own. Be mature about it, and most importantly...STAY COOL!
