Let me just start off by saying that I appreciate the efforts of my various wingmen (and wing.. women?) throughout the years. However, I think we need to lay down some ground rules. If you are going to walk across the room with a girl, introduce her to me, and then walk away, I'm going to assume that you are trying to get me to talk to her. I also assume that you have (at a minimum) pre-screened this lovely lady for three characteristics:
- She's not clinically insane.
- She likes men.
- She is in the appropriate age range.
If you want to go for bonus points, you can give me a bit of a head start and say something nice about me.
Now, I'm happy to talk to girls who don't fit into those oh so strict criteria, but you are required to inform me of these shortcomings in the introduction. Example: "Hi, this is Sally. Her sister just helped her escape from the funny farm." Failing to abide by these rules results in a situation that goes something like this (purely hypothetical of course...):
I'm thinking this girl looks a bit young, but hey, she must fit rule # 3 right? I hear her say she is visiting from Colorado.
Me: "What part of Colorado do you live in?"
Girl: "I go to school in Colorado Springs."
Me: "Hmm... what college is there?"
Girl: "Umm.. I'm in high school."
