Don’t do it!
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Except women can smell the putrid scent of desperation from miles away. It’s bad business sense to ask an investor who turned you down: “Thanks for your time…but can you recommend some of your other rich friends that would be interested in this venture?”
Sames goes for dating. Why in the world would you ask a person who just turned you down: “Thanks for your time…but can you recommend some of your other hot friends to me?” If you’re a cool cat, I’ll suggest that anyway. But the reason I probably said no in the first place is because you came off creepy & douchey. Asking me to set you up with my hot friends just confirms the fact you’re both. Don’t do it!
Ah! Finally, a post! I’ve been hitting refresh for the passed two months. Now I can go back to work. That was a close one.
Re: desperation, I agree. For those having little luck with talking to and / or picking up girls (or boys), a good strategy is to… just not try so hard. I don’t mean to stop shaving or trimming your toenails until you look like a neanderthal. No one likes a sloppy piece of toast. I mean, just relax, have fun, and things tend to work out. I may or may not be speaking from experience.
Thanks Viv.
