Dating

Is there more to starting a relationship than GSOH? What is the secret to romantic chemistry? From the psychology of nonverbal communication to the pseudoscience of physiognomy and even instant attraction based on facial features, award-winning scientist and television commentator Dr. Harry Witchel demonstrates the ins and outs of getting to know someone with demonstrations and exercises for you to do. From “Scary Women” to “Commitment-Phobic” men, the narrative art of a relationship unfolds early but with no end in sight. We will have some fun transmitting polite but sexy or mysterious signals, and learning to enjoy the ambiguity that makes flirting playful. The body language of love is more fun to guess than your star sign.
