imagine you are in a public and crowded place....

and there he or she is....mr or miss Wonderful!

how do you let him or her know that you are interested?
What is your MO?

batting

And,

share your (funny) stories on missed opportunities.
will you use your MO again? or will you change your approach the next time?

here is one tip for men:
always approach a women from behind, women love surprises. Gently swing your arm around her should and smoothly whisper in her ear 'you are hot babe'

This one works good as well:
Corner her with both arm stretched and say to her 'welcome to my world, you are mine now'

I just walk over and start chatting. No point in opening up and saying anything that could embarrass both of us.

So, a chat and then asking if they want to go onto another bar/club will usually sort out the 'new friends' from the 'potential partners'.



Although, it has backfired.

Once I was away for work and fancied a nice meal. So I went to the hotel's restaurant. I was chatting to a guy I liked the look of at the bar. Nothing was too forwards, until I asked him to join me at my table, but it turned out, he was there that night to propose to his girlfriend.

Yah, they had the table next to mine. Cue one quick awkward meal.

That wouldn´t work for me. I like surprises but not from someone I don´t know touching me from behind, nor cornering me.

Actually, I never approach men, but I know how to show if I like a guy...after he´s approached me in a polite and unthreatening manner. wink

Panmixia!A panmictic population is one where all individuals are potential partners. This assumes that there are no mating restrictions, neither genetic or behavioural, upon the population, and that therefore all recombination is possible. The Wahlund effect assumes that the overall population is panmictic.

In genetics, random mating involves the mating of individuals regardless of any physical, genetic, or social preference. In other words, the mating between two organisms is not influenced by any environmental, hereditary, or social interaction. Hence, potential mates have an equal chance of being selected. Random mating is a factor assumed in the Hardy-Weinberg principle and is distinct from lack of natural selection: in viability selection for instance, selection occurs before mating.



Honestly, I like Bust A Move better!
