1: He who hesitates, loses – If you see someone hot, don't wait. Go. I'll be at a club with my best friend and he'll say, "Man that girl is hot!" By the time I turn around to look at her, he's already talking to her. The more you procrastinate, the more likely you are to miss your opportunity.
2: Friends are allies – Don't be intimidated if the person you like is with a group of friends. Try to fit in with the group as quickly as possible. Talk to the friends. If they like you, they will be rooting for you. And the person you like will think you have good taste because you like their friends.
3: Try new approaches – My good friend and manager has one move that always seems to work for him. He'll go up to a woman and say, "Jenny! It's great to see you," and he'll give her a hug. When she says she's not Jenny, they'll start talking, trying to figure out how they know each other while getting to know each other along the way.
4: Make them laugh – I find that if you can make someone laugh, you can win them over. Even the cheesiest pick-up line in the world can work if you let the person know that you think it's cheesy and you make them laugh with it.
5: You can't take yourself too seriously – Even if you're a complete disaster on your approach. Before the other person can make fun of you, make fun of yourself. "Wow, that's was awful. Let me back that up and try it again." If you can poke fun at yourself, it shows you're real.
6: Honesty is the best policy – No one likes the person that's too cool to talk to anyone. If you want this to go somewhere, it's better to be honest up front. If you're putting too big a shine on things to start, you've got nowhere to go but down.
7: Be ready – I met a gorgeous girl the other night. When she leaned in to whisper in my ear, her breath was kicking! I had to pull my head away. I just couldn't think of her the same way again. Avoid situations like that at all costs by remembering the little things, like taking the extra time to swish with Scope before heading out for the night. Do NOT depend on gum! First impressions can make you or break you so always put your best foot forward.
8: Reject rejection – The worst thing someone can do if you approach them is to be mean. I think that's why some people fear getting close to someone they don't know. But if someone is rude to you, that's on them. Consider yourself lucky that you found out what that person was like right away, instead of investing months in a relationship to learn the hard way.
9: Bravery goes a long way – I have one friend who can go up to someone and dance with them without ever saying a word. I could never do it, but it works for him. I admire the fact that he's not afraid to look like a fool, but I think he doesn't feel like a fool, because he doesn't care. If it doesn't work out, he's no worse off than when he started.
10: Kiss confidently – If things are going well, start small but be confident. Since you prepped yourself for the big moment with Scope, your chances are already great! Be gentle - it shows you're interested without coming on too strongly. If the person responds favorably, you're right on track.
