Good afternoon brothers,
I recently(yesterday) had another situation where I was at my job and I opened an attractive girl. She was about 5'10, blonde hair and a European accent(Czech Republic). I opened her by asking if I could help her to find something. She smiled and said that she was fine. I then playfully said, "you're tall, do you play basketball?". She shook her head smiling at me and said no. I playfully asked her, "you don't play sports at all? Youre not athletic?". She again smiled and shook her head and warmly said no and then said she was a lifeguard. Then I playfully said, " so you swim huh? Where's your whistle at?". She laughed and said that she works at one of the local pools. I told her that I liked her accent, asked her her name and asked where she was from and if she lived in the area. She told me her name and that she was from the Czech Republic and that she lives in the area. (We shook hands during that introduction)
I asked her how long she'd been living here for. She told me 2 months and that she was here temporarily on a student visa. Since I was still working(and other customers were around) I told her that I would like to see her again and that we should get together for a bite to talk more at the grill pub up the street from my job sometime. She told me that she's doesn't know because she is always busy and works until 9 most nights. I told her that's ok because I work utill 10 most nights. I then asked her if she knows where the grill pub was which was down the street. She said that she didn't know the area that well. I mentioned a landmark next to it, then she understood what location I was talking about.
I then asked for her phone number. She said ok. I then told her to come with me next to the department work counter(which was 3 feet from where we were standing ) so that I could write down her phone number. She followed me to the counter and then told me to give her my number because she couldn't remember her number that well. Customers were still around and some were watching us(a man and a woman who were not together). I said cool. I wrote my number down and gave it to her. She asked me if she was reading the numbers right to confirm it. She then smiled, folded it up, I shook her hand again and let my hand slide off of hers with my thumb touching the inside middle of her palm and said bye to each other. Then she left.
Now, I think I can understand some errors in which I made:
1) I didn't gently hold her hand during our first hand shake during introduction, but only after the whole interaction.
2) I didn't ask her to put my number in her phone and dial it so that I could see if she was serious about wanting to communicate after she left.
Anything to add that I could improve on fellas? Constructive criticism is always welcomed. I just want to be better and be one the best that I can be. Thanks
