2. Once I was at this party, taking to a
lady friend of mind.
3. She was pretty attractive, and would
always get hit on by guys.
4. One guy came up, and said up front he
wasn't trying to hit on her.
5. Then he started asking her about her
clothes, where she got them etc.
6. During the whole conversation (which
didn't really last that long) he
mentioned three or four times that he
wasn't trying to hit on her.
7. Which meant that he was really
worried that SHE would think he was
trying to hit on her.
8. Which meant he was likely, at least on
a subconscious level, hitting on her.
9. Many guys share this same fear. They
walk up to a girl, and they've somehow
been taught they need to be ultra
secretive with their intentions,
because if she thinks he's hitting on
her, he's toast.
10. All the music will stop, the house lights
will all shine on him, and every body
will KNOW that was he was breaking
some cardinal rule of social etiquette.
11. Luckily, this is all in your head (if you
indeed feel this way).
12. The truth is that most girls LOVE to be
"hit on" by guys.
13. At least guys that are normal, and can
easily take "no" for an answer.
14. Another time I was at this bookstore,
in the coffee shop section.
15. There was a pretty cute girl sitting at
the table in front of me.
16. Some guy walked up, and didn't even
introduce himself, ask her name, or
make any attempt to start a
conversation.
