I've approached the same 16 year old twice

Any tips on how to check if they are over 18 or not?

I approached a 15 year old once as well

I can see why a lot of guys aren't up to day game it can lead to some embarrassing/awkward situations

Another thing is chicks with parents, this often leads me to assume they are underage, so I often filter them out too, but I could be missing out on opportunities.

And if they are underage the parents might get really aggressive with me and overreact and call the cops.

So yeah, it's a real sticking point for me.

Is it just approach anxiety or am I really good at reading the situation, who knows which is why I am asking for advice here.
