Q: Don't approach a girl walking alone on a deserted street at night. Likewise, don't ask a girl out if she is somehow "trapped" with you in a location, such as elevator or cornered in a room. A good way to make her feel safe is to talk to her with other people nearby and visible. Don't make any kind of physical contact unless she does so first. A quick way to make her feel threatened is to invade her personal space. Try making eye contact before greeting her. Tell her your name and give her a non-vulgar compliment. If she responds in kind with her name and a reciprocal compliment or expression of gratitude, mention wanting to get to know her.  Something you could start with would be: "Hey, I really like your shirt. [Whatever is on the shirt] is great!" Then wait for her response. Follow up with: "My name is [your name], by the way." If she ignores your greeting, it's best to back off. If she seems receptive and neither of you are in a hurry, feel free to have a longer conversation. While most guys think they're "supposed" to ask a girl for her phone number, it's best to offer yours first. This takes a lot of pressure off of her and may make her more open minded about your offer. Write it down on a scrap of paper instead of insisting she record it in her phone. which can be seen as creepy and manipulative.  If she's interested, she will likely volunteer her phone number or email without you needing to ask. An example of something to say when offering her your contact information would be: "So it was great meeting you, but I need to get going. I really enjoyed talking to you and would like to get to know you better. If you feel the same, here's my number." If she's given you her contact information, don't play mind games or expect her to make the first move. Ask her to dinner at a specific restaurant with an idea of the day and time. Have a few backup options in case she is genuinely busy or averse to a certain food choice.  An example of what to write or say would be: "Hey this is [your name] from yesterday at [location you met]. I was wondering if you'd be free Friday night around 7:00? There's this [type of food] restaurant called [restaurant] I've been meaning to try, and I was hoping you might be interested in joining me? If you'd rather go somewhere else or you're busy, let me know what would work better for you. Thanks! I look forward to seeing you again soon." If she doesn't return that first call or shoots down multiple offers without suggesting alternatives, she may not be interested in dating. Even if she seemed into you before, people can always change their minds. Respect her decision and move on. " That may sound like a cliché, but it's an important fact to keep in mind when asking out a girl you don't know. Striking out with someone you have an established relationship with can inject some awkward moments into your life for some time. An advantage of asking out that cute girl you just met at a coffee shop is the lack of outside social pressure. Keep this in mind to boost your confidence.
A: Avoid doing anything that makes her feel pressured or unsafe. Introduce yourself politely. Give her your contact information. Call, text, or email her the next day to set up a date. Remember that the worst thing that can happen is that she says "no.

Q: Although a cold sore cannot be “cured”, medications and treatments can ease your symptoms and speed up the natural healing process. Probably the quickest and easiest way to treat a cold sore is way a treatment you can get from your pharmacy or drug store without a prescription from your doctor. The three main types of cream are penciclovir, docosanol, and acyclovir.  In a test of their antiviral effectiveness penciclovir came out on top.  These creams will only be really effective if you apply them straightaway when the first signs of the cold sore are apparent.  You will need to apply the cream frequently, up to five times a day for four or five days. Always check the label before using a cream. An alternative to a cream is to use a styptic pencil. This treatment is less specific for a cold sore but it can have a beneficial impact. You can use a styptic pencil to “draw” over the cold sore area once or twice a day, with the pencil applied directly to the cold sore.  The Alum in the pencils causes blood vessels to contract, which helps to speed up the healing process within the sore.  If you use this method you may find it a little painful and uncomfortable at first. One way to tackle a cold sore is through the application of a drying agent. Rubbing alcohol is one commonly used option. Make sure you get the 70 per cent solution, and apply to the cold sore with a cotton swab. The alcohol dries out the cold sore to help it heal and limits the chances of it becoming infected, which would greatly prolong it.  A drying agent is particularly effective when the sores first appear.  Zinc oxide and calamine lotion can dry out lesions. Another easily available treatment, which works in precisely the opposite way to the rubbing alcohol, is petroleum jelly. The jelly will soften the skin rather than drying it, and it provides a protective layer to guard against infection. Any kind of infection will greatly increase the lifespan of your cold sore, so a protective layer of petroleum jelly can help you get rid of it as soon as possible. When you are applying the petroleum jelly, do it gently and with clean fingers.
A:
Apply an antiviral cream. Use a styptic pencil. Use a drying agent. Apply petroleum jelly.
