Is your iPod stopping you from meeting women?
Posted by Darren Deller |
I know it’s quite a bold statement, but it got your attention right? Bear with me, you’ll see what I mean.
I’m not a massive fan of going to the gym (although, it can be a great place to meet women), but I do like to jog in the open air. Something I’ve noticed while running is that people with iPods, or any other personal music players, barely notice you are there. It’s almost as if they’re in a little world of their own, and I often nearly run into them.
Don’t get me wrong, I love to listen to music. I’m sat in a park right now writing this on my laptop, happily listening to music from my iPhone. Note though – I am working. I want to be in a world of my own, and definitely don’t want to be distracted if a cute girl walks by.
Last weekend though, I was chilling out in a coffee shop waiting for a friend, when I overheard a conversation two attractive girls were having on the table next to me. It was a great opportunity to join their conversation and I ended up taking one of their phone numbers. That wouldn’t have happened if I’d been immersed in my headphones.
If you want to meet a girl, don’t cut yourself from the outside world. Leave your iPod at home and be ready to start a conversation.
