So the rules are:
1) Ask a question for the next poster
2) You have to answer the question yourself first.
3) You can ask the same question again.
OK, me first:
Question
To the men - what's your favourite method to start-up a conversation with the opposite sex ie in a bar?
To the women - (you can answer the above or...) what's your preferred way for a guy to approach you?
My answer
This is cheesy, but a good ice breaker if you see someone in a bar and you're getting good "signals". It can crash and burn big style tho...
Me: Hi, I hope you don't mind me asking, but are you someone that can accept a sincere compliment?
Girl: Sure. [smile]
Me: Me too. Fire away.
Girl: Haha. Well, I like...[blah blah blah]
Me: Thanks, you know, I just had to come over here because [blah blah blah].... I'm Matt btw; can I get you a drink?
Girl: Sure...
Easy!
