What would you do?

[Arthur Dent]

Here's a situation. What would you do?

Got on the train. As soon as the doors opened, I saw an attractive blonde sitting facing the door. Out of reflex, she looked up as the door opened and we made eye contact, but she went immediately back to reading her magazine. Nearest seat is next to her, so I sat down. Noticed she was wearing headphones and could hear the music, so it was playing pretty loud.

How would you approach her? Would you?



I was trying to think of a way of starting a conversation when another guy sat down on the other side of her and seized the opportunity.
