How to Meet a Girl While on Vacation

If you're on vacation with your parents, you may grow bored hanging out with the adults and participating in their activities. Head off on your own to meet a girl to hang around with and possibly even begin a long-term friendship.

Instructions

1. Spend some time by yourself. While your parents take in the sights, walk on the beach, lounge by the hotel pool or check out the arcade and shops if your resort has them.

2. Sign up for activities where you'll meet other kids on vacation. If you're on a cruise, for example, take a few craft classes, dance lessons or hang out at the teen club on the ship.

3. Ask your hotel concierge where the local kids hang out. Explore the malls, beaches, miniature golf courses or amusement parks where you'll have opportunities to meet other teens. Girls may be having fun with friends or even working at the shops or restaurants.

4. Be approachable and friendly when you meet a girl. Ask her questions like what teens in the area do for fun or how long she's lived there. If you hit it off, ask if she'd like to meet you at a coffee or smoothie shop, mall or restaurant later. Arrange to meet each other's parents so they're not suspicious of your intentions.

5. Exchange phone numbers and email addresses if you'd like to continue to talk after your vacation is over. Find someone to take a picture of you both so you'll have a reminder of the holiday.

Tips & Warnings

• If the girl you've met on vacation lives in another state (or country), consider restricting your relationship to a long-distance friendship since you'll both have your own friends, activities and potential new relationships at home.
