Ok dudes, if you want to meet the ladies, sometimes it helps to get a little extreme. Unique can be a good thing.

Go to a clothing store, like a department store that sells clothes for men and women. Find a spot in the men's section that's nearest to the women's clothes. Look through the racks, grabbing a few things you'd like to try on. When you spot a babe you'd like to meet, make your move.

Go over to her, and say, "Excuse me, but you look like you really know how to dress. I've been shopping all day, and I just can't find anything. You obviously know about clothes, could you give me an opinion?" You can say you're trying to find something for work, like dressy casual, or just say you're terrible at picking out clothes and ask her to help you find the right shirts and jeans or suit or whatever it is that you really are interested in buying. Just pick the type of clothes that you would want to wear with this woman on your first date - if you want to go to a movie, nice jeans and shirt would do, or if you want to impress her with a nice restaurant or the theater, be shopping for this kind of outfit. Because a date is what you're really going to need the clothes for, but she doesn't know it yet!

So you've complimented her taste in clothes - score brownie points! - and you've asked her advice - score more points, because women love to give advice! Women also love to shop, and now they get to help you shop. That's an offer too good to refuse.

So show her what you've picked out, ask what she thinks of the styles and colors. Maybe she'll go and pick some different things from a rack. Then say, "This is so great, would you mind if I tried these on so you could tell me what you think?" Women love that, too! Why do you think they go to stores in groups? They want to try on clothes and they want to help their friends pick stuff out, too. It's like 2-for-1 shopping, a double fix!

So once she settles on what you look best in, thank her. "Thanks so much, I really appreciate it. I mean it, you've really helped me a lot. Let me make it up to you. How about dinner next week? Come on, you already know I've got something decent to wear."

She'll be flattered and laughing at your joke. And she'll be thrilled she found a man who let her pick out his clothes! You're in, and you won't have the added stress of figuring out what to wear on the first date! This is a 2-for-1 special for you, too!
