Don't stand on the sidelines, because parties are exactly the places where dating is made. If you're familiar with the hostess, ask her to introduce you to several guests. Or take matters into your own hands and meet yourself. You shouldn't first get acquainted with a man, especially flirt. It's better to start communicating with the girl. Praise her hairstyle or interesting decoration - it will be easier to start a conversation. Dangerous topics - personal life, illness, religion, politics - avoid. Speak on common topics - weather, art, cooking. To make a good impression, speak less and listen more. People are more interested in talking themselves.
