By this point, we all know how it works. An eye-catching introduction, suggestive remarks and sexual offers, requests for company and promises of eternal friendship.

Still, there’s always that 0.1% to look forward to. If you think you can break the ice, be my guest. Just take care that you don’t drown in the well of cynicism lurking beneath the surface.
