Hey gents,
I'll give you the TL;DR version of the night right away. My friend was having a house party at his place with a couple of friends, and his girlfriend took a friend of hers there. We (group of 5) were talking when the girl and her friend arrived, so they just sat (her friend sat right next to me), and after being introduced, me and the people who were already there continued to talk to the group.
After a couple of minutes, I thought I'd give this girl a go, and tried to be quieter (I'm kinda loud when I'm in groups haha) and tried to follow all the not-so-talkative-alpha-male-sprezzatura stuff. After a while I started talking directly to her. Tried to deep dive (didn't quiite pull that right), and soon after that, everybody left us alone.
After deep diving a little too much, I realized I was going to miss the window to go for the kiss, but we were in different seats in front of each other, and I wouldn't know how to go for the kiss smoothly. At this point, I ran out of things to ask / talk about, and things became awkward. After more awkwardness, her friend got back and said she was leaving, so we all left and I did not ask her phone number or anything (was too busy blaming myself for the missed window
). After that, she obviously told my friend's girl her thoughts on me, which then told him, and finally, he told me that she thought that:
- I was quiet in the beginning, but when I started talked directly to her I was OK, and that she liked me.
- If I had asked for her phone number, she'd had given it to me [commentary: which means she'd probably would've been OK with the kiss, too].
So, I think I'm missing something here but can't see what. Help me with this:
1) I'd the stay-quiet-alpha-male stuff went WAY wrong, because when I first met my friend's girl, she saw me talking to everyone in a group (before I could even see her), and later told me that I seemed bold and energetic, not the other way around. What's going on here? Shouldn't being quiet instead of talkative giving me this "power"? (My friend actually told me later that she asked If I had a girlfriend.)
2) Considering the we were in different seats when I felt "I should go for the kiss", what would be a good way for me to have her stand up for we to kiss?
