what do you do when you say something and the girl or her friend says "that's rude"
this is within one minute of meeting them. And it's not said in a flirtatious tone, they sincerely believe it's rude.

Elaborate. What is it that you say that is perceived as rude?

i was walking on the street and there were 2 girls walking ahead of me. a guy was walking in the opposite direction and when they got close he told her "hey, happy birthday" a few seconds later i caught up with them and told her "hi, happy birthday"
the friend asked her "do you know him?"
the girl said "no"
I said "what? you dont know me?"
she said "no"
I said "maybe you should get your memory checked"
the friend said "that's rude"

Don't say the thing that triggers their response of "that's rude."

IMO what you said wasn't completely rude but develop a style that's light and playful.

It sounded like the female friend was cockblocking.

what I'm very interested by the idea women have of guys being "rude", given that women have no problem admitting they like bad boys and guys that don't conform. In this instance, perhaps the concern was that you were invading their space, verbally. "Rude" was her socially mandated way of describing this. But really the word means nothing. What she's saying is "dude, we're not sure where you're coming from and you're creeping us out a bit".

I'm guessing it was when he suggested that she get her memory checked. The problem here is the whole "neg" mentality. It basically went from Approach->Neg. There was nothing that she said or done to deserve that, so it could be interpreted as rude. If he would have answered with, "I just heard that other guy wish you a happy birthday...", his chances would have been a lot better.

Yeah I can't disagree with this. Just saying that the word "rude", like all words in the female vocabulary, is interesting and worth decoding..

That's a pretty strange way to start a conversation anyway.
Pretending you know her when you don't.

For one thing, how does that even reflect well on you, if you convinced her?
Oh, he's so forgettable I didn't even remember meeting him.

Though I think %90 of cases will end like this one.

Street approaching is the last thing you should be doing, Bart. It is literally the most difficult way to approach women. Even very good looking, smooth guys are going to have huge rejection rates.

A much better way to approach is like so. As you can see, you're going to have a heck of a time getting good signals in the street. Go for semi-stationary girls.

Though that guide doesn't mention it, if you're doing daygame, go to the touristy areas where you live. You'll have much more success with tourists. Especially foreign ones.

THANK YOU! everybody always says street approaching is easy and i thought there is something wrong with me. street approaching is not easy, nobody wants to talk to you.
I also agree foreign girls that are just visiting are way more open, it's like they WANT you to approach and talk to them.

I'll explain this from a girls stand point.

Look, you came up to her with some fake ass shit, pretending like you know her.

She saw through it. Her friend saw through it.

She called you out on it. Some guys will call this a shit test. Call it what you want... But she saw a hole in the armor dude.

No more fake shit.

If you make up a reason to go talk to her, she'll make up a reason for you to go away. Everything falls into place.
