My father always invited me to these "social affairs," in his boat club. I never went because they seemed so foreign to me. I prefer house parties.
I decided to go to one last friday to test out some PUA on a higher class of girl. I made an impression, but I noticed some of the AFC's and thought that I should warn the PUA community about some of their mistakes. So if you ever find yourself in an elite social event, know how to act. These people can be VERY judgmental.

1) Be Polite. Always say please, thank you. Don't say "My bad," or "Watch it!" If some one is in your way, politely say "excuse me." If a man is in your way, it is usually acceptable to place a hand on his shoulder to get his attention. Don't touch women in any way, unless it's welcomed.

2) Adhere to the dress-code. Don't wear shoes that are a lighter shade that you're outfit. Don't wear too much jewelry. Make sure your clothes fit, ALL SUITS/TUX'S HAVE TO BE TAILORED. Don't wear sneakers/tennis shoes with a suit. Peacock theory doesn't fly to well in these situations.

3) Don't get busted forgetting someone's name. I trick people into giving me the name "What was you're last name again? Are you by chance related to (make up a name)"

4) Never forget to introduce your friends to your other friends in conversations. As the one giving introductions, it's your job to keep the conversation going. Talk about something that they both have in common, this will set an easy, welcoming tone

5) If you are ignored: "Hi I'm ___ I'm ____ friend" Will do fine. A PUA alternative is "Well aren't you going to introduce me to your friend? That would be the polite thing to do <smiling>"

6) Don't get shitfaced. Having a glass of wine is one thing, the bottle is another.

7) Follow simple etiquette. In most western cultures, you are right handed. Shake hands with the right hand, eat with you right hand, etc.
Don't burp, or shit your pants at the table. While eating, don't talk about anything gross, offensive or creepy. Excuse yourself from the table when you leave.

Body language: Walk upright, sit upright, don't ever slouch.

9) If you are not invited to this occasion, it's most likely because you don't know anyone. If you don't, it's probably best you don't go.

10) Try not to get overwhelmed by all this. Keep your cool, don't cause a scene. This is supposed to be a fun occasion. You will be bored out of your fucking mind by the end of the night.
