Perth Meets and greets are often and everywhere, the success of these meets are pretty much the understanding and respect of others that are there. In the old days when i used to host numerous parties, I didnt make any rules, only beacuse I invited those i know that have self respect.. (and they were alot of people!)The Do's:Socialise! Mingle!Introduce yourself!Be Merry!Be fun!Respect everyone regardless!The Dont's:Dont sit in teh corner and stareDont grope someone you dont know.. even tho you saw someone that did and got away with itDont offer drugsDont abuseDont be sleezyDont EXPECT anythingDo NOT expect sexDo NOT be a drunkard.and above all: DO NOT BE SO COMPETATIVE! :)

A nice venue that suits all. A place where you can easily chat, mingle and flirt. A nice variety of like minded couples, is also a draw card.

DON'T snap your fingers at a waitress to get her attention. Commonsense social manners and respect are a must.

Lucky here in Perth our meet and greets are always fun and we seem to get between 40 to 130 at different times. We are a great social group whom also have Friday lunches and last minute mini meet and greets if nothing in events. I say just make them monthly and at different venues so people can explore there cities a little more.

Someone to take the lead/act as host and do the introductions and make people feel at ease. A way for guests to recognise each other ie the red ribbon used on saturday. A venue that is conducive to conversation, mingling amongst the whole group.

Quoting 'Ms_silk' Lucky here in Perth our meet and greets are always fun and we seem to get between 40 to 130 at different times.

I say just make them monthly and at different venues so people can explore there cities a little more. That makes sense. People can plan better and if they know it's a definite thing when posted in the events page and people register interest then it will be more successful. I liked the no pressure atmosphere of a 'meet and greet'. Am I right in assuming that others think this way?

We have organised a few meet n greet events and each one has become more and more successful .... perhaps because we have learnt from previous mistakes!!! The first we only gave a weeks notice - and only had one cpl attend (was still lots of fun )!! The 2nd was a pre paid day at the races with a band, and food n drink included in the admission - this was perfect as all planning was done and everyone just had to turn up and have a punt!!! The 3rd we also did at the races ....we had picked a bar but being a small race meet it was shut so we picked the lawn but we organised to have balloons as our "meeting point" but apparently they scare the horses lol the day was still a massive success (after everyone finally found us without the balloons)! We think the best thing about our events is if you turn up and think the crowd is not for you its easy to disappear and still have an amazing time without wasting a babysitter. We have some new ideas coming up for a few more meet n greet dates in brissy after footy season ( our busy time)!! Our poo poo event would be turning up to a party/event where everyone knows everyone and its hard to know how to break into the circle of already exclusive friends!!!! We much prefer it when everyone is getting to know new people. Im still trying to twist Mr arm into letting me organise a winter get together

I will go the opposite and say what I don't like about M&G's...Men that follow me around like a puppy dog! Men that hug up on me all the time...and what makes it worse is if they have BO! Men that think they have a right to touch me up in a public place (I punched that one in the gut)! Drunk speak...I don't drink and don't mind if others do..but when they get soooo trashed that you can't understand a word they are saying! Men that turn up with another date (not couples) and when I get home there is a message in my inbox asking me out! Men who say they can't wait to meet you at the M&G and then don't talk to you because they turned up with someone else and then text/message you when you leave asking where you have gone to and that they want to take you out for lunch the next day! xFunlovingx

Do... Be your self.Don't... Not be your self.Simple really. Why so many have problems with social interaction I don't understand. Some people will never like you, some will instantly like you. So have fun and enjoy, and if you look like a dick, or cunt (equality) then so what, there may be someone that loves that in you. It is not a competition, go have fun, with a mind of acceptance.With that i have to say main rule.Don't... JUDGE....

Where would people prefer to have a meet and greet? What kind of venue is conducive to this type of thing? The Watershed hotel was great - great view, no loud music, plenty of space indoors and out ... I like the WA mob's idea of going somewhere different each time. Where would you suggest?

The venue should be somewhere were everyone can feel comfortable, so no where overly classy I would think. Plenty of space and a place to sit. Not too loud so every one can chat. Now for some reason girls always end up pashing so if you can get an area hidden away and sectioned off would be good. Just so you don't freak the regulars out. If you have a venue like this and a reasonable size crowd things ALWAYS get rowdy. :p

And always assume 75% of the people who have registered their interest will not show up. I mean what happened to the CheekyArses? It was their idea for everyone to get together then they didn't even show to the Sydney drinks? Or did I miss them as well? :D
