I only lurke until I can think up of something to say to people! At the handbag meet at Tiger Tiger I made several attempt to talk to the women there but they simply wouldn't speak to me at all!

well heres an idea..... write down a few conversational pointers (The weather, your job, what the local libary is like these days) on a card. that way if you get stuck you can quickly check the card for somthing to say.
Oh and dont forget to add "your hot" on there. Dont wanna miss that one out when talking to the ladies

I post in Handbag too, and have seen some of the things posted about Harlequin, and its obvious that they don't like him because of his views on rape. You can't turn up to a handbag meet, knowing that the girls know your views, and also that the only reason you go to them is to try and pull, then wonder why no one likes you! It's just too obvious.

Its not that easy as you have to say something which is relevent to the current situation, any old topic wont do!

Yeah of course it will. after all... you always have you good looks and charm to fall back on.

I am also very shy though! I was at a love@lycos meet the other week and was too shy to tell anyone there that I was there for the meet. I just hung around the edges asking women if the gathering they were at in a cordoned off part of the pub was an office party or something. When one of them mentioned a website I pretended to know nothing about computer and asked if it was computer users club or something. That way I thought I would get to talk to the women without having to admit I was actually there for a singles gathering as I was just far too embarresed and shy to do so. It didn't work though as I ended up getting told to leave the cordoned area by someone who said it was a private event!

You're just not playing to your strengths, H. Take it from me, nothing gets a woman going faster that the unmistakable smell of giro. Try it. And then thank me.

Maybe if he gives the ladies your address they can thank you aswell

A good way to make friends is to get a hobby and not to go out of your way to look for women. Worked for me - I met Mrs Stefanos though my obsession with the R***n thang (and I got into that through an interest in history and stunt fighting) because she was interested in it as well....

Knowing what Harlee's hobbies are - namely, trailing at demos with wandering eyes and skulking in the dark corners of public libraries, I very much doubt that this is a decent course of action.
I've found that talking about wine and cheese combinations while doing nighttime shopping also works, but I don't suppose Harlee knows much about this.

This sounds like a horrendous scene in a chic sitcom/ full length rom-com as scripted by someone who always worked out witty and sophisticated rapports with women but never actually got to pur them into practice. I could just imagine the kooky humour and astonishingly inept attempts at looking metropolitan and cultured right now. *shudder*

I would have thought the same before it happened, ackcherlee. I was at the time looking for cheese, not a woman. She just happened to ask what wine went with the cheese she happened to be buying, which I suggested was a bit bizarre as it was 3am and she couldn't buy alcohol anyway.
In short, I was looking for Emmenthal and found Emily.
She was highly-strung and peeled labels off shampoo bottles with a maniacal precision, though. Which was not good.

Hmm. If I were someone else I'd see a good script there. Nazi sympathiser, anti-Semite and anti-Blacke activist meets neurotic recruitment manager with a large collection of 1980s CDs and shampoo bottles with no labels.
At a supermarket cheese counter at 3am, no less.

Is that the sound of the 2x4 being readied and a lynch mob forming? Sometimes, when handbaggers come here and start tentatively throwing jibes at Steelgate I feel like Dustin Hoffman at the end of Straw Dogs.
edit: In this scenario I like to think of Ben as the Susan George character.

Frankly if anyone asked me about wines at the cheese counter at 3am, I would immediately have them down as a complete raving mentallist and do my best to politely get the fuck out of there as quickly as possible without upsetting the fragile balance in their head...

I would also question what the fuck I was doing at a cheese counter at 3am. Exactly what sort of madness necesitates the purchase of cheese that immediately? And not just any cheese, no, we're not talking Sainsburys extra mature cheddar here, that's sold from the chiller, this would have to be some sort of fancy gay cheese...
