1.	Your boyfriend asks you to join him for a Friday-night movie. You say yes and suggest seeing: A romance. A comedy. A psychological thriller.
2.	You meet a handsome jock at a party. You say: "Hey, aren't you a starter now?" "Which was more hilarious: when the mascot tripped or when the ball bonked that guy on the head?" "So how long have you been playing?"
3.	In lab, your crush says, "I think we have some serious chemistry." You: Make a joke right back, like "Why? Do you want to get physics-al?" Roll your eyes in a friendly way and ask him whether he wants to measure zinc or take notes. Wink and say, "Hmmm, I was kind of thinking the same thing."
4.	At homecoming, your crush asks you if you want to dance. But your feet hurt, so you: Ask him if he'd mind waiting for a slow song to come on. Tell him that your dogs are barking and make conversation so he doesn't think you're blowing him off. Hold off for a second and then get down anyway. Hey, it's called a dance, not a 'stand around'!
5.	Your boyfriend is overreacting about screwing up on yesterday's test. You say: "Let's do something fun tonight!" "Is something else bothering you?" "Hon, was it really that bad?"
6.	A class outing gets rained out, so everyone has to walk back to the bus through mud. You: Remind everyone to appreciate the Zen of getting all muddy! Trudge through the mud laughing and earn the nickname Mudhoney. Cover your hair with your book bag and ask a guy for a piggyback ride.
7.	A big group is at a restaurant for your boyfriend’s birthday. You finally get next to the guest of honor and you: Give him a huge hug and flirtatiously say, "Hey, birthday boy!" Tell everyone to hush up so that you can embarrass him by leading a hilarious toast. Ask him how he feels now that he's another year closer to independence.
