Semi-formal approaching

[crazyman]

Ok there's a semi formal dance in my school coming up in 2 weeks, and it'll be my first dance since since learning about pua (a month ago). I'm in Gr. 12, and I've only been to one dance in my entire high school career (Im a loser I know ) I want to have a good time there, but I'm really nervous. I'm not on speaking terms with as many people as I'd like, and my rep is non-existant. But maybe I can change that with semi. How can i approach people I barely know and make new friends at semi? Also, how should I dress?

[Contempt]

Say hi, talk to them in class if you can so you get to know them prior to the dance. Try to bring a girl thats pretty attractive, that will show your not a wierdo, but if you don't bring a girl, no big deal either. Just dance with pretty ones. Just say hi basically, if theres something interesting everyone is watching talk about that with them, try to be funny as well, people really like to hang out with people who make them laugh. Don't forget to say to the chicks there either

-Contempt

not to get you down further, but you gotta believe in yourself as a person, read some of this: highschoolpuas.proboards83.com/in....hread=90&page=1
also i agree with contempt, and whatever you do, don't be a "wallflower". be part of the activities, dance just have fun in general.
as for how u should dress, where something that makes you look good and feel comfortable. talk to a female friend of yours for help dressing, or your older sister/mom if you dont have any female friends.
lastly, semis tend to be lame like other school dances, so try to make the most of it. dont go in expecting to get laid, just try to make a couple of connections that could get u laid in the future

okay most important thing you should do is work room talked to as many people as you can one of my favorite conversation starters is for me is sort observational opener opinion openers with girls and then while you're talking waved to other girls that are talking to you while in set. just appeare like no a lot of people when you really don't. second thing wanted to do is and dance four-game. when you're doing dance four-game don't want to ask just do when you are dancing with her you want to escalate things as quickly as possible. have fun in time and I hope you have a great time.

^if the dances are anything like the ones Ive been to, there isn't really much talking. Follow contempts advice, push your comfort zone, HAVE FUN (who cares if you bang three chicks that night if you dint have fun doing it) and just dance! (preferably with the opposite sex )

dancing with guys in a jokingly gay way might actually be a good idea. gets a lot of people warmed up to you real quickly since its funny. I act insanely homosexual with one of my good friends, it gets /everyone/ insanely laughing and really just breaks down any walls of insecurity. It makes it SOO easy to bring girls into sexual situations or conversations.

Haha if it's works for you that's good. I meant versus by himself lol but yeah, me and a couple buds always party boy a teacher, Santa or someone to get it started

canadiankid-actually, for this dance, there's a huge lobby area and theres always tons of people standing there, talking, taking pictures etc. My goal here isn't to hook up with girls; rather it's just to get on talking terms with many people whom I've only talked to like once. Like, I might have talked to them in class once last year, but want them to know/remember me this time.

@justin-what are some good conversational/opinion openers? The situation here is that I know most of the people here (most of them are old/new classmates), but have hardly ever talked to them. So it's not really a "cold approach", but it's pretty chilly regardless .

Thanks for the advice guys, it looks promising
