If you ever go, keep reminding yourself you're not there to meet people, but to have a good time and have good conversations. Don't try and act like your special and talk about yourself, but talk about common things you would as if the person is already a friend and you're out to get coffee.

The people I saw looked like they were in their 30's, some maybe early 40's.

it's worth a shot man. You always talk about how you know all these girls that just want to be friends with you. This couldn't hurt. :dunno:

Reminder:

"A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired."


Or did we forget?
