Hey peeps,

I need help figuring out if this response was alright - classic situation if you get the name wrong in the icebreaker. We agreed to a coffee this week:

Me: Hey [her name], its Nick, save my number!
Her: ok! u spelt my name wrong by the way :/

Me: Oh, woops! We'll figure it out in person lol.

So basically:
- Was "Oh, woops!" unsexy, and should've been substituted with something else?
- Was it OK to reference a future meetup in the icebreaker conversation?
- Am I just over-thinking this?

I'm going to call her tomorrow night because I didn't receive a text back, and I want to reverse precedence.

Thoughts appreciated, fellas :)

If she didn't text back, Chances it is okay. She don't see you as a friend.

Unless you text a totally different name, she would not be piss off.

Cheers, Zac :)

Yeah, it was only a letter or two off. She seemed interested when we met, things ought to still be fine.

PD,

Here's a ballsy and confident text back that could give her a good laugh and help move things forward as well:

Her: ok! u spelt my name wrong by the way :/
You: Good! Now you can show me how to spell it the right way over a drink this week ;). What's your schedule lookin like?

This is probably a bit more advanced text game as your wittiness over text has to be congruent with your approach, but it can help generate more attraction if she complies. ;)

Right on! Cocky and inclusive; this would be something I'm aiming for. Stashing this one for future use.
