Bookstoring, I spot an asian girl in the photography section and go talk to her. I'm nowhere close to direct approaching unfortunately, so I said something easy like "Photography, eh?" She smiled and we talked, and she seemed to latch onto me, not physically, but following me and my words. After a bit I told her to grab a coffee with me at the Starbucks inside. She obliges, and after we get our drinks I say "Let's go sit in the Fantasy section" (There are two lone chairs in this quartered off section, and I thought the Fantasy section has gotta be a good thing) and touch the small of her back to guide her towards it. She walks a little fast on purpose in order to escape my touch, but she`s talking and we`re on our way, so whatever.
We grab a seat and start talking about photography again, and after a short bout of me teasing her about being a photographer like every other asian in the world, we talk about art, and I ask her opinion on art in a deep dive attempt. The conversation is good and has a great flow, but I know I`m not communicating a sexual vibe besides my occasional stroke of her arm or something when the context of our convo permits it. At one point she comments on how soft her hair is, so naturally I think that's my cue to touch it, but she pulls away and says it`s weird. (This is the theme of the date!) I brush it off and we talk a bit more. I tell her to show me her favorite book in the bookstore. She hops up excitedly to show me.
After she shows me her book, we`re talking about a lot of stuff and she`s more or less following me around. We start talking about movies and so I say lets go see what`s playing (the theater is right next door). No resistance whatsoever, and we`re on our way. Perfect I think, I`ll cozy up to her in the theater.
Well, our timing is bad and there are no movies on at that time. So I ask if she`s hungry and we go eat instead. It`s been like two hours now, as we enter the restaurant. She seems so comfortable. During our meal I touch her arm a few times during conversation, and then at one point grasp her hand in mine. Again she says it`s weird. Now I`m kind of fed up and disappointed, but I don`t show it. I tell her she`s weird and keep talking like we were. I try again a few times, telegraphing my movements to make a sort of game out of it. She never goes for it. After we leave, she says `you are the only guy who has ever made me pay for my own food.` LOL! We leave and I walk her to her car.
I was really trying, but this sexy-vibe thing is something I need to hone. I get nervous in these situations and then start talking and joking around, though in a low-energy and easy-going way. I`m naturally a quiet person so I guess I try to compensate by talking lots, although constantly trying to make her do the talking. When I try the sexy thing, I don`t talk as much, which leads to things feeling awkward, which leads to me talking. Anyway, FR for you!
