追求异性是人民群众的基本权利，到了某一年龄，这还是家庭长辈们的殷切期望和基本义务。那样用英语该如何说呢？
chase after 追求
chase是追逐的意思，中国的女孩都比较羞怯所以男孩一般比较主动，chase after the girls
就是追求女生，
比较习惯生活化的说法是：pick up hot chicks，直译是找辣鸡，，
hot chicks是男生对女生的称呼，特别是漂亮女生，绝对地道！
正在探寻爱情的或者正处在恋爱中的朋友们：
hook up / set up 介绍，牵线搭桥
A：Hey, how come you've never told me you have a cute cousin
B：What are you trying to say?
A：Well, you can hook me up / set me up maybe?
B：No way.
hook up/set up等于中文里的介绍、认识之类的词, 并不单指男女之间的认识。譬如有人想拍电影, 他的朋友刚好认识李安。他就能跟这位朋友说'Hey! Since you're a friend of Ang's, why don't you hook me up?'
B：Well, I guess she's trying to play hard-to-get.
stand someone up是放某人鸽子的意思。play hard-to-get也可以说成play tough-to-get。
补充点与异性搭讪时的表达法
You look so familiar. Have we met somewhere?你看着好眼熟啊，大家在哪儿见过？
Havent we met before?大家以前没见过吗？
Excuse me! What is the time? 不好意思，请问目前什么时间？
A: Hi, Mary! How have you been?
B: Sorry. My name is Lily.
A: Oh, sorry. I guess I made a mistake. Lily is a beautiful name, and so are you. Im Jack1.
