I remember sitting next to a woman who was reading her book. She was thoroughly engaged in it. After a while, on a subway stop she looked up and was brought out of her book. Then she turned to me, stared at me for a couple seconds, looked down, started at me again and then snapped her book shut and quickly put it away. Then she was fipping her hair non stop the rest of the ride until her stop. The point is, it demonstates someone can be a few inches from you, but if there focus is on something else (such as music, dancing, friends) or hazy drunkeness they are much less likely to be affected by your application then sitting across from you on a dinner date.

So, remember that to help pheros work, you have to bring attention to yourself, but not unwanted attention XD. It’s like noticing for the first time a rather hot chick who’s been sitting next to you all year. Once you notice that you want her, you can’t stop thinking about her long enough to get any work done XD.
