It is interesting when one stops and observes the different mating rituals of humans around the world. Here is my comparison of how it works in Bahrain and the UK:

Scene 1: Bahrain, Bukawarra street

Step 1: Make sure you get hold of a nice car. A BMW or a Lexus is preferred, but the minimum requirement is at least a Lumina. If you have a toyota corrolo or a nissan sunny, stop right here, this scene is not for you.

Step 2: Head down to Bukawarra Street near Riffa or Sharei Al-Hub (Love Street) in Adliya. Adliya is usually seen as more posh, but Bukawarra is wider and usually has more action.

Step 3: Try to spot a girl, and make sure that she is up for the chase. If she is with her mother or with a male, it is usually a good sign to back off. If she is with a lot of friends in a car, or happens to have a small kid (brother or sister) in the back seat, it is a good sign to pursue.

Step 4: Try to chase her in the car. Pay careful attention so that other admirers do not cut in front you and steal your target.

Step 5: After chasing her for a while, she will probably leave Bukawarra and Adliya and go off onto a secondary, less busy road. Follow her. This could either lead to pleasant or horrible consequences:

Scenario A: she, without your knowledge, might drive up to her house. If you see a raging father or brother (possibly with a kitchen knife) approaching you, it is best to get the hell out of there.

Scenario B: she will stop at an inconspicous position. This is a good sign. Approach her. Try to chat her up. Remember, the chatting up will only last a few minutes, so it is essential to try to be cute, witty, and entertaining so that you give a good impression. If all works well, she'll take your phone number, and from then on, it's up to your talking skills!
