	Er don't know if you guys are the best to ask about this, lol.. Got spare money?

Our uni is doing some tacky "traffic light" party thing tomorrow. Already got a ticket cos some fine friends are going and I'm single at the moment. You wear green if you're single, amber if you're just looking, and red if you're unavailable. Um, don't have any amber or green in my wardrobe...

Anyway, also going on is some "Speed Dating". You get 3 minutes (I think) with girls and then you find out matches after.

What are your tips? It'd be easy to do the shite "what course are you doing" bollocks, but if anyone has done it before, have you any tips to make the evning a bit more fun and interesting?

Perhaps the lack of green clothing is God trying to send you a message.

I don't understand the difference between green and amber. If you're "just looking", is green a desperation plea: PLEASE ANYONE DATE ME NOW

Whatever you do, don't wear green

That's what I was thinking, knowing the way women work. Actually, I'd have to buy something to go in either green or amber, so might as well just wear red.

I also don't understand the difference in Green and amber . . . Is amber " I am in a relationship but will go for it if someone better comes along"


AS for speed dating, its something I thought would be fun if I were ever single. I really think in the speed dating thing your only goal is to get a regular date with any of the people that interest you and that this will occur if you a) are physically attractive to them b) You Don't act like a doofus...

People want to give people they think are cute a chance so my advice is don't go crazy trying to knock their socks off ( many such attempts fall flat)-- If you are NORMAL, polite and can carry on a converstaion, you're in.

The " what course are you taking?" line might seem unoriginal but it does get you talking and is pretty safe . ..


Seriously, even in regular dating I think the idea of "lines" or methods are doomed to spectacular failure more often than they succeed. I found that simply being straightforward, honest and pretty conservative in my approach WORKED time after time.

Bottom line -- if they like your look and don't think you are weird, you should get that date. If they think you are fugly, well you never really had a chance.

it'll be so embarrasing, when you'll be the only one wearing green. Everyone thinks 'well.. I'm not in the mood of putting the effort, I'll go but I won't dress up'. Then they'll laugh at you. So you could as well just go naked. That way I guarantee there will be people wanting to talk to you, even women, you'll be noticed for sure and you stand out. And when you get arrested, do the Nixon hand thing (you know, both hands up, and victory signs) and everyone will be like 'Aaaaavenue Aavenue' 'yeah he's the man!' and when you get all that hype.. some chicks will want to date you, just to see what the hype is about.

Or you get arrested and everyone thinks you're a jackass. But you'll be noticed. So better go drunk as well, so you don't have to remember the embarrasing moment. If you score, that's good, you'll remember it, if you fail, you remember it in better light than it really was.

And as for the speed dating.. just ask 'Spit or Swallow'. They will remember you when they think about who they want to go out with. This I guarantee. THey will remember.

flubber, I forgot, that's foreign trick. You see you ask that with a straight face and then the girl is like WTF? and ready to slap you, then you put on your what's goign on face.. and say 'I'm sorry my english is bad' giving the impression that you meant something else.

Then you secretly see what's she is like sexually. If she then laughs and tells you what it really means, then she's open and swallows.

If she just then tries to correct you and find out what you wanted to really say, it's tough to say, but most likely a spitter.

If she is still upset, but not directly angry at you, and says 'it's so awful I can't say what it means!!' and all upset.. she's most likely something else, but you don't are not interested anymore.

If she attacks you, she's a feminist and you should counter it fast with a boob grabbing and run.

And you all know I'm RIGHT!
