I can't think of a single thing that could go wrong with that plan. Try it!

I don't know what this means.

You're on the fine line between being-nice-because-I-feel-bad-for-you (cause you're so nice) and genuinely interested.

I'm thinking the mouthed "Hi", trips that into the interested territory. A quick, fake smile and acknowledgement is more the other.

Dammit Marsman, I was in the middle of drinking something when I saw this. It was exactly what I needed today though, so I thank you for that
[size=1]Also just making sure the picture survives a bit longer.[/size]

I only say so from experience. Sometimes people don't know what they want, and it comes off as such.

Yes.

Oh, pft. Hipsters are at the bottom of the food chain.

You may not know this, due to your geography, but Southerners are actually lower.

Southerners are armed and eat anything.

The food chain is "science", so you lit'rary types might not understand it.

Based on the kind of stuff you Southerners keep trying to put in your textbooks, I don't know that you all understand science, either.

True enough, which makes me glad I'm not a Southerner.

Q likes to play hopscotch along the Mason-Dixon.

If the science of the food chain is based around what will put what else in its mouth, I guess Southerners are at the top. But I'm not sure I'm jealous.

It was a crowded bus. There were at least 10 sweaty OU students between us.
But yes, more talking is always the solution.

Before the Talking comes the Doing. Do it.

Hipster? Pffft. What's his future earning potential? You, sir, are pursuing a degree of worth. His insecurity speaks volumes - he doesn't fear you specifically, he fears anyone as a threat, because he has only his fleeting hipness to rely on. "He offers you today. I offer you A FUTURE."

Dude, with little effort on your part, she's making contact with you. You're in, for at least a conversation.

I was listening to Rebel FM this morning, and they were going through their mailbag and the relationship letters. There was very wise advice from either Bromley or Altano, saying that you don't approach a girl like you want to sleep with her - you talk to her like you talk to everyone else, no pressure, no anxiety about how you get all the way from "Hello" to "For Boogle!" in one suave pickup line.

Is there a coffee shop around the bus stop? Ask her to show up 30 minutes early one day - it's enough time for a quick chat, has a definite end time, you can ask for a repeat date, and leaves her Wanting More Boogle. It's foolproof - assuming you can get the "Hey, want to meet 30 minutes early for coffee tomorrow?" out of your mouth without totally freezing, which was always my challenge

And if my advice works, I want pictures. CC Mex too

We'll see. Like I said, I only see her on the bus, and even then every once and awhile.

Stalker = stalk her

Get off at her stop and follow her home like a lost puppy.

Not easy to pull the trigger in public when you only have moments to work with. I'm trying to think of a slick way to make contact in that brief window, but I've backspaced over every stupid idea.

I think your best bet is to sit next to her (if there's room), introduce yourself, and ask her to get coffee with you sometime.

"Hi, I'm boogle, and I keep thinking I'm going to get time to talk to you here on the bus, but that hasn't worked out too well. Would you like to get coffee tomorrow?"

FTFY.

Well, when you put it that way. Hmmm...

Sometimes it can help to feign a little lack of knowledge with a question. For instance, "Do you know a good place to get coffee?" More often than not, if they're interested, they'll show you the way and you'll have perfect opportunity for some idle banter.

Go big or go home.

I'm fairly sure that geographical knowledge of that nature is a prerequisite in any potential partner for most women.

The problem with the statement as laid out above is that knowing how to find the clitoris is very different from knowing where the clitoris is. I'd be willing to go out on a limb and say that most women would prefer the second option as opposed to (presumably) all the fumbling around that goes with the first...

The man is at the top of the boat.

This thread still confuses me. Why is it sentient?!

Boogle, in rugby the ball is very seldom bouncing around loose. Sometimes, especially as the lock, you need to hit the ruck to get the opposition off the ball.

I would say the mouthing 'Hi' is an indicator of interest. Hit that ruck.

Good approach.

Potentially better approach.

Remember, in this game, your goal is to teabag the ball, not the opposing player
