How to introduce yourself to a girl
Gauge the situation.
Is she alone, or in a group? Is she relaxed, or is she deeply absorbed in her work? Try to approach her at a point when she'll be open to meeting someone new. You want to make a good first impression.

OPTIONS:
- One way to come across as approachable is to deliver a quick, friendly message via phone or by email or text. Try saying something like, " hey, it's great to meet you.
- If she's alone, consider what she's doing. If she's in the library, with her headphones in, obviously working, then you shouldn't bother her.
- Walk up to her once you reach a friendly level. If you get close enough, look directly into her eyes and smile.
- Try not to appear clingy. This is especially true if the girl you're talking to hangs out with many male friends.

- Set up a meeting with your ex at a time when you are not busy. If you are out of work, it can be wise to set some aside for after school only times.
- If you just recently broke up, some people may ask about your well-being. Remember, it isn't the break up that matters, it's how you deal with it that will determine how you get on with your friends afterwards.

How to manage wool sucking in cats
Keep wool away from your cat.
Remove any wool or cloth so your cat can't suck on it. You may need to stop wearing wool sweaters around your cat and store any projects that use wool (such as your knitting or crocheting).

OPTIONS:
- This is especially important if you have valuable wool items that you don't want your cat to destroy. Don't forget to keep cloth holiday or party decorations out of reach.
- Your knit sweaters may also get itchy if your cat eats them, chews on them, or sucks on them. You can cover wool with silk for a cotton decal-it prevents your cat from chewing on wool fur.
- Prevent wool from getting hot between the hours of 8 pm and 4 pm on a hot day. It shouldn't be during this time of year when it's likely to rain.
- Cats dislike wool, and you don't want your wool collection to be matted or taped down. Avoid putting your wool in the dryer.
