How To Not #1

Dear numero unos,

Since I am positive that the males among us are wondering how to win me over every minute they aren't thinking about reading my blog, I have decided to give them a little guidance.

How to NOT win a date with Nasrin Aboulhosn:
1. Ask what my name is and then laugh.
"Hi, I'm ____. What's your name?"
"Hi. I'm Nasrin."
Chuckle. "Oh, really?"

2. Ask me where I'm from and then say, "No, you're not."
"I'm from Brazil but I'm visiting the states for a while. Where are you from?"
"Oh really, I was born there!"
"No, you weren't."
"Yes, I was."
"I don't believe you."
"Um, well I was."
"No. No you weren't."
"..."

3. Start the conversation with a piece of trivia.
"Have you seen the music video to this song? The director shot it in slow motion."
"No, I haven't."
"...Oh."

4. Tell me how drunk you are.
"I'm so drunk, but if I weren't I would say nice things to you and tell you that you were beautiful."
"But I'm not beautiful right now?"
"I'm so drunk!"

5. Pretend you know me.
"Excuse me, are you the girls who live next to me?"
"No, we aren't."
"Oh, I thought you were the girls who live next to me."
"Well...no."

There are of course many more ways but this is all I can think about after a frustrating few weeks. As always, there are many ways TO win a date with Nasrin Aboulhosn, so keep trying my fellow fellows.
