If you go to a restaurant to eat and choose to sit at the bar, and if you spot some girl you like, do you just go sit right beside her or keep a seat or two away from her and then slowly approach? Would it be too obvious/aggressive if you sit down right beside her if there are empty seats further away? Today I picked an empty spot with both seats empty around me, then I found out I got stuck because someone else just sit down between me and the girl.
