    PJ - you get points twice because you asked 2 coworkers. :)

    I haven't been online over the weekend but before I left work on Friday, I ended up asking a 3rd coworker...OMG who am I? :laugh:

    Don't be intimidated.... look at those within your group. :) That's why I broke it down. We all have different comfort levels in different situations. This is just to help you realize that it's ok to start smiling at people and talking with strangers. :) If I were playing, I'd be low as well because I rarely go to bars. Just try starting conversations with the person next to you at Starbucks sometime, or in the elevator....hehehe

    Ya, I don't go out and I see the same people everyday. To say that I'm routine in my activities is an understatement! haha. Hence the reason I tried to participate in this, but I guess I need to see people to do it! haha

    I'm the same way. I have my routine and that's it. I have time usually to do things too, but I don't always have people to do things with. I am going to join a weight loss challenge in Feb so maybe that will help me get out there and meet some new people, even if they're 20 years my senior.

    Was a busy weekend full of going out...and going over my calories! Previous total 169 points.

    Eye contact with a stranger = 1 point x 30 = 30 points (rough guess with all the bars/clubs)
    Smiling at a stranger = 1 point x 30 = 30 points (guessing but always smile with eye contact)
    Initiating an email (or wink) on a dating site = 1 point x 1 = 1 point
    Starting a conversation with a stranger in public = 5 points x 2 = 10 points
    Flirting with someone you don’t fancy = 10 points x 1 = 10 points
    Telling someone you’re not into them (instead of poofing) = 25 points x 1 = 25 points
    Attending any social event/function you wouldn’t normally = 30 points x 1 = 30 points (trying to be more social)

    So this weekend brought in about 136.
    New total of 305. Wow, I am even impressing myself. Never took note of these things before.

    From today:
    Initiating an email (or wink) on a dating site = 1 point x 10 = 10
    Any conversation on a dating site that makes it to 10 replies back and forth = 5 points x 5 = 25

    195 + 25 (for Friday that i forgot to add in) + 35 points from today alone = 255 total
    I'm really trying to break free of this comfort zone!! :drinker:

    You are killing it!!! I would say you are one of the bigger winners excluding the already very confident!

    I smiled and made eye contact with my gyms maintenance man yesterday so 2 more points for me. I tried smiling at a man today but he looked down at the last second. I'm up to 6 now.

    Ok so at last count I was at 62, and I don't know if this counts, but since I'm in the rookie league I think it should =)

    I joined a second gym today. I joined a Planet Fitness around my area cause I didn't like the machines at my other gym. But I love my other gym cause it has a pool and a spinning class. Also, the reason I was at my first gym is because I didn't feel self conscience, because the average age was 60. I didn't have to worry about someone my age seeing me, judging me, etc. So I feel joining this gym, with people in my age range, qualifies for the attending a social function thing which would give me 30 points.

    While I was there I made eye contact with five people and tried to smile at one, but he looked down.

    So therefore I think I'm at 35.5 points haha (considering he didn't see my smile).

    Which would bring my total to 97.5 , if we count my new gym =)
