Well put. Think about it. If you're always looking, you're going to ACT like you're always looking. Under those circumstances, you'll find that there are three types of MOTAS that you might meet in an "appropriate circumstance": - those who aren't paying enough attention to see that you're "on the make" all the time - those who are interested in someone who's always on the make - those who see your head game but figure there's a real person underneath, and chance to decide to take the time to find out To me, the first group is dullards; the second, flaky; the third, very worth knowing but this isn't the way to find them. Trouble is, it's hard NOT to be looking all the time when you're feeling lonely. -- ...Relax...don't worry...have a homebrew. Dick Dunn {hao,ucbvax,allegra}!nbires!rcd (303) 444-5710 x3086
