Hey guys, wanted to share a quick approach that I did yesterday, did a couple things wrong near the end, I will share in a bit, but I want to know how to go from here, nothing major tbh.

In my apartment building, we have a printer in a study room, and tbh the printer is kind of weird to use.

Instead of trying to figure it out myself, I asked the cute girl next to me if she can help me, to which she agreed.

The printer was taking a while, so I teased “if this doesn’t work you can pretend to be me for my exam tomorrow” to which she bantered back she doesn’t wanna do that, seeming hooked to what i was saying. Held up with the tease till the printer started working, then I inquired about what she was doing.

She said she was studying for a midterm, to which she said she started studying today, to which I said “haha ur cooked.” Tbh it didn’t seem like that before she could start reacting I said “jk ur gonna do great tomorrow” with a more sincere tone, to which she said thanks. Quick save on my part.

We started talking about halloweekend costumes, since halloweekend was coming up, could’ve teased her again, but didn’t for some reason when she told me about her costumes, when I told her mine, she called me “basic” which I took as a small sign of interest from her in the conversation.

We talked more, then I brought up that I went to study abroad, she told me her roommate is going abroad. I told her she should see my instagram highlights of abroad basically trading the instagram, talked a bit more, then I went back to do my work.

I waited till the next day to text her:

“Hi [her name] nice meeting you yesterday hope ur midterm went well”

She responded “haha thanks I hope urs goes well too”

I then responded “thanks and after our midterms we both get a reward” trying to open a curiosity loop, to which she only liked the message. Didn’t say anything again after this, but will ping her soon.

Problem is I didn’t ask her out for a hangout plan prior to getting her insta, however, she seems to have some level of interest in me, so I’m figuring out how to re engage her. One option is to run into her again, but that would require pure luck.

Another option is I could ask her about some of her travel highlights, then offer to meet her in the apartment lounge to have her explain more about that sometime next week, since the hangout idea is very convenient for both of us(literally have to take an elevator, plus it’s free).

Lmk anything else I could improve on here.

Since she's from your appartment building, I think that there's a high chance that you'll meet her again. Or you can "create" your own luck if you know anything about her daily schedule.

I would not reangage on text since there's no deep chemistry from the first encounter (I too am personally awful at texting but hey maybe you're better at it than me so feel free to try it if you want)
 
the right date makes getting her back home a piece of cake

I know nothing about her daily schedule, maybe Ik she comes down for midterms studying, but that’s pretty much done, can’t rely on this. Also have barely seen her before, can’t just rely on seeing her again.

I would re engage about something on her instagram profile, since she never outright ghosted me, I think there’s a higher chance of it working.

No deep chemistry from the first encounter, but I could sense the automatic interest, and not the polite kind, she was investing into the convo.

UPDATE:

Texted her again after 5 days, read the doggedly following up articles, and shot her a simple text:

“Hey [name] hope ur weekend was good, are you going out tonight?”

She said she couldn’t because of work and class.

Tbh I asked her a pretty boring question of which class she has, which she left on seen yesterday.

I asked that question just to reply something and I was a bit drunk tbh, not in my best instincts, should’ve liked the message and moved on for the day.

Should I ping her in a day or two and invite her to something I’m already doing?

Or should I leave it if she left me on seen, only for the boring question though, not about her plans.
