Hey Guys!
I went out last night with the possible end goal of getting a number, but doing so as quickly as I could manage to flex my pickup muscles a bit and test how much I've improved the past semester. So here's how that went:
Thursdays in a college town. AYCD night. Anatman and I head out to the local bar that we frequent. it is wall to wall PACKED. we suffer through the seemingly never ending line to get drinks, make conversation with those we know in the process and then quickly become immersed in a game of doubles pool with one of the employees who works there and his friend (both male). Midway through the game I spot this group of girls at the head of the table. they are making chatter amongst themselves and looking around. I happen to catch one of them as they are looking our way out of my peripheral so I turn and meet her gaze, hold it for a second, smile, very quickly give her body the once over, and then turn back to the game as if nothing had just happened. She's cute, girl next door cute this night anyway. I wait until I have a turn where the cue ball is at the head of the table and seize my opportunity. I lean over to one of the guys playing on the other team. He has been commenting on Anatman and his partner multiple times as they both get distracted during this game with social endeavors, at one point even at the same time. I lean toward him and say and say:
I walk over, her back is turned away from me in her circle. I lightly touch her on the hip, enough as if I was going to move past her but don't and lean around enough to be able to see most of the group and say
She reaches to take the cue, but I pull back.
I hand her the cue, and of course she misses. As soon as she does, I let her know it, and bring the rest of her circle back in.
Time to swicth topics for a bit and give the friends something to do
She pulls out her phone explaining it might be dead. There's a cord attached to it, I comment on this, she shows me some backup charger she has in her purse which the phone is plugged into. I ask to see it and she pulls it out. I hit the home button on her phone real quick and it turns on. So, not dead. lol. I say wow that's pretty slick and hand it back.
I extend my hand out and I exchange pleasantries with the rest of the friend group, and then tell them it was nice to meet them and go back to playing the game as they walk away to refill their drinks. My hope in this last minute bit was to gain friend approval and show a bit of good guy standards, since I made her take my number in front of them (because girls doing this kind of stuff in front of their friends always seems to be a thing, always worried about what the friends will think or say). her text read as "Alyssa Lastname, Best pool player ever!"
I texted her today with: Hey Alyssa! It was great to meet you last night and talk pool. I'll be out of town this weekend but we should play a couple games next week or weekend and relax a bit before finals.
I'll post updates when I get them!
