    Ok, here are some of the points as suggested. This is meant to be about breaking out of your comfort zone (and we Peeps are at all different levels of that so I tried to make it as fair as possible). With that in mind, this isn't a 'sex' game either so there are only a few points for physical actions.

    Eye contact with a stranger = 1 point
    Smiling at a stranger = 1 point
    Initiating an email (or wink) on a dating site = 1 point
    Any conversation on a dating site that makes it to 10 replies back and forth = 5 points
    Starting a conversation with a stranger in public = 5 points
    Flirting with someone you don’t fancy = 10 points
    Asking for/or giving out your phone number = 20 points
    Asking someone you know to fix you up = 25 points
    Telling someone you’re not into them (instead of poofing) = 25 points
    Attending any social event/function you wouldn’t normally (including dates you would might have previously said no to) = 30 points
    Flirting with someone you fancy = 50 points
    First kiss = 50 points
    Starting an online dating profile (only valid if you don’t already have one) = 50 points
    Asking someone you like out on a date = 50 points
    Asking a stranger out on a date = 100 points
    Having a one night stand = 100 points for women / -10 for men
    Sincerely telling someone you love them = 100 for men/ 1 for women
    Going to a bar on your own and flirting with someone = 500 points


    We have to go on the honor system, so add a post anytime you do anything from the list and keep track of your own points there! If you do/say something and you think you deserve points for something not listed, perhaps Run could dole out the points since she offered to help? Should we let this go until the end of January (basically a month) and I'll figure out a small prize for the winner then?

    Good luck Peeps and have fun!!!! :drinker:

    I will never discourage a challenge that encourages women to have more one night stands. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    A server told my friends and I to behave and I asked him what he would do if we didn't. Does that count as flirting with a stranger.

    I'd love to do this, but for me, smiling to the stranger is 500 points. Considering I'm pretty sure I'm the worst flirter ever and a guy hasn't asked me for my number in two years... I'm pretty sure I need lessons. I also am scared to death to give my number out. But here's to trying!

    Ill try. I don't go out much. I pretty much just go to the gym and work. And the average age at my gym is 55 so no dice there. I'm supposed to go out with a friend tonight. Maybe with some liquid courage ill give this a whirl!

    I can do the others. It's just finding the time and motivation to get out there. This is the one I can't do. And I don't poof either, I just end up dating them for far too long. :grumble:

    Edit, just re-read. I'll pass on becoming a porn star.

    Ooookay. As I'm already seeing someone, I'm just going to do other things that are outside of my comfort zone. Is that okay? I need to work on my social skills.

    Eye contact with a stranger +1
    Smile at a stranger +1
    Telling someone you're not into them +25

    And this all happened because I went out which I NEVER do. I got invited to a party at a bar, and I was about to say no... Then remembered my new year's resolution. So I said yes, went to the bar, smiled at a cutie across the room, and then had to tell a guy from the group we were in to back the hell off.
    +30

    So far.... +57

    Edit: I don't know if telling the guy to back off counts... Does it have to involve someone you've been seeing?

    @Jenbit.... I need to take lessons from you!!! I'm horrible at all of these! People think I'm this outgoing person, and I am to an extent, but when it comes to the opposite sex and dating I'm as shy as they come. I need your help! haha

    I didn't know you were seeing someone, but good for you! And yes, all of those things count toward the challenge! The points are the silly part, but the real goal is to be more social and adventurous, and you're doing a great job at that!!! :flowerforyou:

    Oh and I have 26 points from today just from emailing someone online, and then we had a long email convo and I gave him my #. Will have to see where this one goes.
