Dear Auntie Rhon, I'm a college student on the shy side. I like going out with my girlfriends to the clubs but I don't feel comfortable talking to guys in the clubs. If I see a guy that I'm interested in I don't talk to him, I freeze because I don't know if he'll be interested in me or if he's being polite because I'm with my friends. What can I do?...

Dear Auntie Rhon,

I'm a college student on the shy side. I like going out with my girlfriends to the clubs but I don't feel comfortable talking to guys in the clubs. If I see a guy that I'm interested in

I don't talk to him, I freeze because I don't know if he'll be interested in me or if he's being polite because I'm with my friends. What can I do?

Dear Shy,

I'm guessing you're a psyche major? You see a guy you are potentially attracted to, then you create a scene in your mind...Maybe he the one? Maybe he's not? Will he talk to me? What if he does talk to me and he's really not interested in me but is interested in one of my friends?

What if?!!!....arrrgghh...

Breath...first of all, no girl is comfortable speaking to a guy in a club. (Yes,even me.) There are too many distractions.

The noise level is too high for him to hear your sexy voice.

Guys in clubs do get distracted easily.( the pretty lights, there is always a girl more attractive than you passing by)

Guys are wary of a gang of girls (anything more than 2 girls is a gang)...if a guy says something

wrong to one of girls. The girls cease to exist and a pack of harpies comes swooping down to \avenge the wronged sister. They leave nothing in their wake. Don't believe me? Ask a guy if he has a friend that has mysteriously disappeared while dancing with a bunch of girls at a club.

So that's why I like to send a note. A sexy note.

For example:

May I borrow your cell phone? I want to call my mother and tell her I have met the man of my dreams (cheesy but fun).

Ordinarily I would have to go to an art museum to see a work of art like you.(cheesier, yet surprisely effective).

Now if you feel you would rather die than write a note like that you may always opt for the classics.

example:

Find out what he is drinking (beer,milk,water) buy him a round and have the waitress slip your note to him. Have it say "Just the facts"..name...phone...hair color...eye color...height...and add on...I like what I see...and if you see me I hope you do too.

Notes are the best noninvasive dating tools there are in my opinion. The guy may turn you down, but it is done in a quiet, discreet way. Nobody feels embarrassed.

I recently sent a note to someone I was interested in. Response? I was shot down faster than the Red Baron, but it was still one of my better notes. Let's share.

I feel like I'm in wonderland, and my name not even Alice, I am so curious about you, how far down the rabbit hole would I have to go? To know the warmth of your inner thigh.

So even the best note is no guarantee....but it sure makes you feel sexy!
