Met this girl on tinder, we decided to meet up for shakes in the evening.
She arrives a few minutes earlier than me and shes checking her phone. I see her and call her name a bit louder than I had hoped, but it made me sound cheerful and confident, so that's cool. Walked up to her, put my arms out, said "come here
", and gave her a hug. She seemed a little nervous. Great! She says "shall we go get shakes?" (a bit formal, since that was the plan, but whatever) I agree and we get in line. She asks how my day was and I respond saying I was working on a stat pset, she naturally assumes I'm a stat major but I tell her its actually math, stat and ealc minor(east asian languages and civilizations) I feel like this makes it less likely for people box me as just a stem person.
We get our shakes and she then goes to scout for a place to sit. First thing she asks me is why I picked strawberry. I tell her I'm more of a vanilla kind of guy
but really anything that's not chocolate. She says she actually hates strawberry because it tastes the most artificial. I'm not sure if she's challenging me or something, so I just say "okay". She asks what I like to do in my free time, so I just said swing dancing and she was curious about how I got into that, she tells me how she does bhangra, used to do ballet.
Then she springs a question that I was kind of thrown off by. She asks, almost suspiciously, "So...what are you on tinder for?" "Just to meet new people", I shrugged. I start vaguely getting into my tinder experience, but back off quickly(since, if you read my last FR, it was not something I would want to talk about with another tinder girl). I return the question to her and she says she's been a bit lonely since she got back from her study abroad in India.
Around now is where we hit the hook point and she tells me stories of her study abroad, I tell her stories of my time in china, she ties that in with her experiences. we talk about a bunch of stuff related to that and what she wants to do with pub pol (her major) I'm able to get her to do most of the talking, I sit back and just try to look at her while thinking sexual thoughts, but her eye-contact is all over the place. Sometimes, I look at her out of the corners of my eyes as its more flirty. I forgot what her hands were doing most of the time, except for once when she was running them through her hair as I was telling her a story.
Seems like she was at least mildly attracted and nervous, which I think would be a good thing. Then around 7:20, she ended it abruptly saying she needed to go to a friend's apartment to pick up something at 7:30 and she had an awkward expression on her face. We get up and walk out. She asks me which direction I'm headed and then we say bye and part ways. (This whole part was a bit awkward).
So yea, it was just an informational date. I think I did a reasonable job with the conversation and I think I came off as pretty chill. I think the highlight was definitely the smooth hug in the beginning. I titled this FR purple highlights, simply because she had purple highlights, which happens to be a recurring trope in my dating life.
I'll text her tomorrow morning to let her know I enjoyed meeting up. Hopefully she responds
Also, I'm not sure why I posted this since it was just an informational date, but any feedback would be appreciated.
