Here's another story from my dating past.
Once at Whole Foods, I saw a woman in the citrus section.
She was looking at oranges.
And
She had a leather jacket on.
She had this kind of Mila Kunis sort of look to her that was super attractive.
And I remember thinking, okay, she's over there with the oranges.
What's my opener?
What's the perfect opener?
And I looked at the situation.
All these oranges were stacked in pyramids.
I thought of a good, funny line, and I had it in my head.
I came up with this.
It took me like two minutes standing there looking at her or looking at the scene.
And I said, okay, I'm going to walk over to her.
I'm going to say, hey, you know what?
They finally found a word that rhymes with oranges.
And that word is gorgeous, which is you.
So as I say that to you now, that's making me cringe.
But that's what I was planning on because I thought your opener had to be perfect and witty and amazing.
