Some presents are better than others. During the hustle & bustle of the holiday season, sometimes you find yourself between parties and family gatherings, alone with no one to share your company. No more does this ring true than for the city’s many singles, who may end up feeling lonely and left out.
One of the best times of the year to meet somone new is that five day strech between Christmas and New Year’s eve. Whether emboldened by drink, the comfort of friends and relations or merely drunk on the spirit of the holidays, people are just more receptive to new relationships at this time of year. It’s as though our whole society has slipped into the Twilight Zone – as though reality itself is temporarily suspended and anything is possible (which is the true nature and real power of the Christmas season).
People are more likely to have their defenses down and accept what they are being presented at face value. Their positive vibes will imbue you with the qualities they themselves value and even the simplest getsure will come across as a great humanitarian effort. It’s pretty easy to shine if you have love in your heart and a smile on your face.
Here’s your three step action plan for stepping out on the next five nights, starting the 26th:
1.) Put yourself in the middle of the action. You cannot make an impression if there’s no one to impress. Find the local “hot spot” and show up in a comfortable, but somewhat dressy outfit.
2.) Ask a lot of questions. You can never find out too much about someone who intrigues you.
3.) Be interested. Following step 2, listen with earger ears to what the other person is telling you. And don’t forget to ask follow up questions like “How do you mean that?” to show you are truly seeking to understand them. This most effestive way to get the other person interested in you.
If you follow this advice, don’t be suprised when the group you have befriended have to leave and ask you to tag along.
