75. Break the ice

So you roll into a club...hair waving, skirt hiked up high, 5 inch heels making those sharp pops as you strut down the corrider...you walk up to the bar and as soon as you look up...there he is...oh yes..."HIM" he walks up to you...smiling, exuding of male sexiness and as you two lock eyes with one another you suddenly feel the tapping of fingers on your shoulder as you hear the words, "hey baby your bear cave or mine?"

we're all familiar with ice breakers...all of us...we've used them..been subject to them...been forced to hear them...or even been forced to make some up for the sake of that one time when I went to the club and ended up making out with a 65 year old house maid named Matilda.

Ice breakers allow for the tension to be smashed so that either the conversation can continue but more...I would say so that the relationship between people can continue.

PSYCH!SENSE question...does the type of ice breaker you use tell the type of person you are?

In fact it's interesting...in therapy, the really, really really good practitioners will make sure to hear and remember the first thing...the aboslute first sentence/fragment/word that comes out of their mouth because that will tell you their current mindset and will give you insight into their psyche.

let me set up situations when you're alone:

at a club and the guy walks up to you and says, "hey baby, wanna screw??"
probably a douche...although please see a book called Douche Bags and Hot Chicks (thanks leroy for the reference)

a guy walks up to you and says, "the force is strong with this one.."
that sounds like a nerd. some peeps dig that

a gal walks up to you and says, "hi, i'm susan...nice to meet you"
sexy...

a gal comes up to you and says, "so you come here often?"

I had this situation where some people were debating about religion and as she and he were arguing their points one of them says something along the lines of, "...all organized religion should burned and lashed..." a random girl to my side stated, "...your mom should be lashed..." hahahahhaha....that's an example of breaking the ice in a group situation...

For future reference...I have to write a blog on the idea of "your mom" statements...

anyone else have weird examples of breaking the ice?!?!?!

  2. I've never used one or had one used on me. I've thought about it... but i became insanely self conscious and feel so terribly fake that I have to abort.

  3. It certainly can be stress provoking...but honestly...aren't the hardest things in our life the ones worth doing?

  4. Well,
    I like it when a guy makes eye contact followed by a smile and raises his beer or drink as he communicates with you from a distance....Now , that can be sexy.....
    I once approached a guy that just took my breathe away, told him he was handsome followed by giving him my business card with my cell# on the back....I just did not want to leave without giving him a compliment , but I never heard from the guy.....LOL....
