Rules for getting a man...
Ok, now that I've chased everyone off. It's so simple:
1. Look up if a man sits by you to acknowledge his presence, then go back to what you were doing and totally ignore him.
2. If he asks you something, be friendly and positive in answering. If he asks you for help, find the quickest way to get him to help himself while not leaving the area.
3. Play off of his flirting, flirt back.
4. If he asks you for your stats, (# of children, marital status, sexual questions), tell him you don't discuss those with people you just met.
5. Just keep flirting with the dude. Seriously, that's all it takes. They're so easy.
6. If he only asks you questions about your status, but not about you as a person and doesn't try to get to know you, just find something else to pay attention to -- eventually, he'll bug off.
7. If he's obviously there to get to know you and let you get to know him, and is interested in being there for you and not just be served by you (conversationally or otherwise), then if he asks you out for coffee, tell him the truth: if you have time and haven't had any, go out with him, or if it's not going to work into your schedule or whatever, take a reign check and call him another time.
8. Wait a couple of weeks to call him, and whatever happens from there is just what happens.
9. Avoid self serving men, instant gratification men, and men who have rules for what kind of women they'll date. Also, avoid men who clearly aren't interested in considering you for friendship -- who would only either date you or have nothing at all to do with you.
10. Your email address is sacred - don't give it out easily. Unless it's one you never check anyway. And don't accept offers for rides, nor accept requests for them. Don't "connect" with any man too soon. Or tell him much about yourself, even if he asks, unless it's safe information.
