I met Vivian at the M&G last week. She was easy to spot because guys were swarming around her like bees at a 4th of July picnic table. Her long dark hair, megawatt smile and sculpted body were like a tractor beam to every Y chromosome in the room. Having attended a number of the M&Gs in the past I know it's hard to make a lasting impression on a beautiful young woman, much less provoke a vague memory of who you were when you reach out and try to contact her a few days later. So I briefly introduced myself to her and pointed out the very unusual shoes I was wearing, telling her in advance that I hoped it would help her remember me. I stayed at the M&G until almost midnight, making several rounds of the room but she was always engaged in conversation with at least two guys but I did manage to wedge myself in one more time, promising that I would be contacting her in the morning. But when I looked over my notes the next day for some reason I could not find Vivian’s info. Luckily I remembered the friend that she’d come to the party with. So I contacted her, asked if she’d give Vivian my contact and told her to remind Vivian that I was the guy with the unusual Nike shoes. I was thrilled when Vivian sent me an email saying of course she remembered me (and my shoes) I made an early morning date with her right away.
