Well guys over the last 2 days I have gone 1 for 3 on number closes.
Attempt 1: Was at the library studying when I noticed a HB8 come walking in and sit down. I never could establish eye contact with her, and she never looked back up, at least not while I was looking at her. So, when I got done studying I walked over to her and said:
me: excuse me were you my server this weekend when I came to eat at X restaurant? (hey, it did sorta look like her from a distance)
her: no, I'm sorry
me: ohh ok. What's that you're studying...Art History?
me again: ohh hey I'm DJZ
her: I'm HB8, it's nice to meet you...yeah it's Art History 200
me: cool
her: (talks about what teachers to get for Art History, who is hard, who is easy, some about the class, etc.)
me: Hey, thanks, well...I gotta run, I'll see you around.
Well, I walked out the door and was like Ahhhh hell no, I'm not gonna choke like that. So I had to take a whiz, went back in and used the bathroom then when I came out, she was walking out the door. I went outside and noticed her standing by the street looking like she was waiting for a ride. I approached her again and said:
me: so we meet again!
her: haha yeah
me: hey, I was wondering if you'd like to go out to dinner sometime.
her: [smiles] I'm sorry, I have a boyfriend. Actually, he's bringing me dinner right now.
me: ohh ok, well I'll see ya around.
Attempt 2:
Went to grab some lunch and noticed a HB7 sitting alone eating and writing in a notebook. Walked up and said:
me: hey, is anyone sitting here?
her: no
me: mind if I sit down?
her: sure... [motions toward the seat]
me: so, what are you studying?
her: ohh, I'm not, I'm just writing some stuff down.
me: ahh, cool
me: I'm DJZ by the way.
her: I'm HB7
me: nice to meet you
her: nice to meet you too
we talked about various things while we ate, nothing really important. So I got done eating and decided to go...
me: well, I guess I'm outta here, it was nice to meet you.
her: ahh ok, well it was nice to meet you too.
me: hey, we should hang out sometime.
her: yeah, you can find me here all the time
me: how bout you give me your number, and I'll give you a call?
her: ok you got something to write on?
me: [fumbles around with pockets, backpack, then she holds out a pen and says to write on the napkin]
got the number and that was it.
attempt 3:
walked up to the redlight crosswalk and was standing next to another HB7. Traffic was sparse, but evenly spread so that you couldn't walk yet. I said:
me: you think we can make it?
her: I don't know you can try, but you might get hit.
me: looks clear, lets go.
me: you wouldn't try to save me if I got hit?
her: yeah, of course
me: ok good...btw I'm DJZ
her: ohh hey DJZ, I'm HB7
her: what year are you?
me: SR, what about you?
her: I'm just a freshman.
me: ohh thats cool, so how you like it here?
her: it's pretty fun, I really like it.
me: yeah, thats good...so you live in the dorms?
her: yeah, right up here, that's where I'm going
me: ahh, I'm headed to class, as a matter of fact, I gotta run.
her: ok
I almost choked, she got about 10 yards away and I yelled:
me: hey, we should hang out sometime
her: "i don't know?"
me: what does that mean!?
her: I have a boyfriend, I'm sorry!
me: ohh, ok..well I'll see ya around!
So I felt pretty good even though I got dissed. I don't really care, b/c she probably was telling the truth. Anyway, I walked in the door of the building and around the corner and who do I see but the girl that I hooked up with last weekend. LOL I said hey and waved and just kept on walking.
I had plenty of other possible approaches I could have made, but choked. One girl made eye contact with me twice (I was sitting on a park bench, she was walking by), she smiled, and then said hello and asked me how I was doing. She was an HB8.7 for sure. After I replied to her question, I asked her how she was and she said great!
Dangit! I'm still mad at myself for not talking to her more. That was my main choke on a possible approach. There were a few others, but I forget.
edit:
just remembered a bad choke
was at the library, stepped off the elevator and saw a really hot HB8.5 I attempted EC, and was smiling, but I think she was lost, and looking past me at something behind me. So I go over and open my books and start studying. After about 10 minutes I decided to leave b/c I couldn't concentrate. I got up and walked back towards the elevator and saw her standing by the front desk next to a guy. They weren't talking, and noone was at the desk. I got on the elevator and when I turned around, she was walking very fast towards the elevator. I held the door for her and she got on and said thanks. She was holding a book, and that was my chance to make conversation right there, but I choked. We both got off at the same floor, but went diff directions. I heard her asking the librarian if she could check out the book, and then I walked outside. I figured she would come out once she was done checking the book out, so I sat down on the steps and read some more of my book. She never came out, so I went on my way.
Ohh well.
