I'd appreciate it if someone who's confident with texting could take a look at this interaction and let me know how to proceed (and critique it too if you wish). Thank you.
Wednesday lunchtime I was in the outdoor plaza of a combined office building, mall and food court when I passed a woman in a skirt-suit and heels, around 30, curvy figure, dark-haired. Her lips were pretty hot as well. She gave me a "look" and I turned around to approach her. She sat on a stone bench and I sat down next to her, complimented her on her attractive body, asked her name, and began conversation.
She had come outdoors to make a phone call to a potential employer as she was dissatisfied with her current job. I deep-dived her on that for about 10 minutes, then told her I'd leave her in peace to make the call. I grabbed her digits, put my arm around her, kissed her on the cheek and wished her good luck. "What's your name again?" she asked me with a touch of wonder in her voice as I departed.
Here's my question: assuming she doesn't text me for a booty-call (and I think she's unlikely to, given she's only seen me in the flesh for 10 minutes) how should I proceed at our date in view of what has taken place and the image of myself I've presented?
Thank you!
