Yes, and do you do anything to determine, beforehand, that the
woman you've decided in your current "target" is also date-seeking
or at least willing to have you "date-seek" her?
Consider -- no matter how nice you are, or how interested you
are in dating me and how much I might be looking to date someone,
you have this very serious defect which renders you outside my
circle of potential partners.

When I meet a woman, and I think this is relevant because we
are both attracted to women, the thing that comes to mind
first (even if she's a really hot babe ...) is not "does she think
I'm a really hot babe".

Is this an honest question or are you intentionally pretending to
be stupid?
