Kiss Me, I'm Irish!


Tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day. For some, it's a reason to hit the bars and celebrate with green beer. For others, it is actually a more somber holiday. For the enterprising flirt, it gives the perfect opportunity to reach out and touch someone (within limits, of course!)

If you didn't know, there is a "tradition" on St. Patrick's Day that you will get pinched if you aren't wearing any green. You can use this tradition as a great way to break the ice with a playful pinch to someone whom you've had your eye on for a while.

Don't pinch hard, though! A soft squeeze of the arm with your thumb and index finger is all that's necessary.

Don't pinch the privates. Note the "arm" location. However tempting, leave the buttocks pinching for when you've established familiarity.

Workplace pinching may put you in a pinch. Most companies have sexual harassment policies that include no unwelcome touches, so if it is a co-worker- ask first. "Hey, you're not wearing green. You know that you might get a pinch, can I do the honors?"

Virtually pinch! Use the holiday as a good reason to send someone a message.

Your crush is wearing green? Make yourself the target. Have something green you can take off- a scarf, sweater, etc. If your crush is wearing green, take off your green item and invite them to pinch you!

Overall, a little creativity goes a long way. Quirky and fun approaches are much more likely to get a fun and positive response in return. You can do this any day, but a little luck of the Irish might just help.
