Body:
1. The Social Amnesiac
His Line: “Have we met before?”
Game: He will approach you at the bar, at the library, in a café and often in the street. He will seem relatively harmless, not entirely unattractive and somewhat entertaining. The problem is that he has hit on you 45 times and he never remembers you. The only explanation for this inexcusable behavior is that he hits on such a large number of women that it is impossible to remember individuals. This is what some term the “shotgun approach,” which is when a guy believes if he fires enough shots he’ll eventually hit something.
