SPENDING just five minutes trying to pick up a beautiful stranger causes so much stress it can damage a man's heart, a study suggests.

And if the sexy siren is perceived to be completely out of a daring punter's league, the stress levels can rocket so high it risks heart attacks and strokes.

The anxiety of those reckless hornbags is reported to be similar to the stress of leaping from a plane.

I wonder if they controlled for the men's age. Feeling stress with women is synomonous with young nerds in literature and popular culture. Alfalfa used to swallow hard with bulging eyes at Darlene wanting to sit next to him.

Once men get silver tipped and stable in life, I doubt a mere slip of a girl is going to be as stressful. Plus maybe the homones are a little more settled.

Ah, well, maybe I shouldn't loose weight. Right now, no one would be intimidated by my looks. So, I guess I am a safe date!

Sadly, the ones that hit on me don't seem to fall in that group.
