How do you talk to a girl and become friends with her if she is always with her friends?

[SGM]

Stand about 10 feet away from her group so you can see her face. Act busy with something like writing a note in your book or playing with your cell or mp3 player, but keep eye contact on her. When she looks at you, hold eye contact, smile and then jerk your head to the side to signal her you want to talk to her alone. Then walk 10 feet over to where you tilted your head.

If she is interested, she will excuse herself from the group and walk to you. Then you have about 20 seconds to make your sales pitch before her friends come and interrupt you.
