Texting coffee shop girl
Tue, 08/21/2012 - 21:23
Got a girls number at a coffee shop earlier and been texting her this afternoon/evening. Here's what happened, copied from my FR journal:
Then I went to a coffee shop to do some work. STUNNING girl walks in and we make eye contact. She goes and orders hot chocolate and asks if they have icecream. When she goes to sit down I ask if she really just asked if they had icecream in this weather (it's freezing cold right now). This girl is SO CUTE, like the most adorable vibe ever. I say something about how everyone who's come in has ordered that hot chocolate... She says it's amazing. There's such a good vibe going on. She walks over to the table and introduces herself and shakes my hand. Girls suck at showing guys thery're interested haha.... It's adorable.
She gets her hot chocolate and realise she's getting it to go. I kind of panic cause I though she wants staying and think I shit what do i do... She's about to go and I say "Hey I know this is random but we should get some of that hot chocolate sometime". She's like "Yes!" straight away... So I grab her number before she bounces.
Then this is the texting back and forth:
Me - Nice to meet you ;) Like 3 more people have walked in and ordered that hot chocolate... It must be pretty dam good :)
Girl- Nice to meet you too :) i wouldn't lie to you, would i? :)
Me - Well you're adorable but you could be a pathological liar for all I know ;) how can I be sure you aren't?
Girl- Well, you can't be. Such a pity, because i kinda am...
Me - What, adorable or a liar? :P omg I'm back home now and can't work. All I want to do is get into bed and watch a movie!
Girl - A liar :P I rate you ditch the work and do what makes you happy! Nap time is best time :)
Me - A liar and a bad influence, pshh. I shouldn't listen to anything you say! Except doin that sounds way to good so maybe I will listen :) what are you up to?
Girl - I know, i'm a horrible person! What are we going to do!? I think though, that just this one time I may be right :) i have just finished play rehearsals
Me - We could get you a drink and see if alcohol makes you a nicer person ;) where abouts are you at now?
I wasn't sure about that last one. She hasn't texted back for an hour now. Was thinking she would tell me and then I was gonna suggest somewhere to go grab a drink. Was maybe a bit direct.
I read buddhagames' reply to someone about not trying to force the logistics and just like more casually finding out what she was doing.. was kinda tryna do that here.. but think I was chasing to hard at the end maybe.
Just recently realised i put no effort into following through with text game so this is me starting to make an effort with it :)
So ye, tell me what I did well/badly and like where i should go from here if she doesn't reply. Maybe leave voicemail or something.

Re: Texting coffee shop girl
haha get this text today:
Girl - Hey sorry I didn't reply before. But I don't know if you realized this, but I'm 17. Does this make things awkward?
That explains the no reply to the alcohol thing lol.
Good replies? (yes 17 is legal here).

^ Lol da fuck?
Probably better than what I responded, sounds super lame in retrospect.
Me - Definitely did not realize that :P in that case we'll have to swap that drink to going to get icecream or summin! ;)
Her - Haha, I'm glad to know that :) aaaand we still need to go for that hot chocolate, i mean it is delicious
Me - Yes :D where do you stay? I'm right across the road from vida :)
No reply.
I'm at the coffee place next day and tell her I'm here and she should join me she's free.
Her - Hey alex :) so sorry I only got your message now, and i have rehearsals for quite a while? :( another time?
Feel like my texting is super lame. Not sure how to make it better though. Think I can still get meetup with this girl, it was a pretty solid interaction. THink I should try and find out her schedule and stuff first and not invite her out of the blue though.
Thoughts?

Just keep going, she's interested. Talk about more random shit in your convo, then a few texts into it tell her she needs to figure out when she's free for hot choco
