Now that we have determined in this thread that a friendly/flirty conversation is indeed not harassment, women are just people too, the old gender roles are dead and public parks are a singles hunting ground, how do I make it clear I’m open to being approached?

Since chatting someone up is out of the question for me, I’d rather hedge my bets on some women using those tricks all you Casanovas left in that thread on me. We’re all progressive here, I don’t see why the man must start this dance.

But I can’t help but notice that this plan has not worked at all yet. How do I express I’m single and ready to mingle, except by just having that printed on my shirt? Like was said, having just a friendly conversation with any gender would be a start, can’t remember those happening in a while either.

    Au contraire! As was sung, “I am the one thing in life I can’t control” (Edit: Oof, how embarrising), spending effort on that is the waste. So just coming off as more approachable is the one path open to me.

      Are you referring to Wait For It?

      Cause the line is “I am the one thing in life I can control”

      Also Burr definitely didn’t “wait for it” when it came to boning down on that British dude’s wife.
