Yea, I noticed she was all alone during the slow dances and such, so I came up to her and said "Would you like to dance with a beautiful stranger?" She said "Sure, By the way, what's your name?" So was danced and talked, and it got to the point that at every slow dance we would go to each other and dance. Heh, thanks guys for all the help.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
I danced with a complete stranger last night at a wedding.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Hard to believe that it's as easy as that...
Well, she was a complete stranger to me since this wedding happened in another state. I saw she seemed lonely, so I thought I would cheer her up, and ask her to dance. I figured, "Well, I'm gonna be out of here tomarrow, so what does it matter if she says no?"

Nice job. You were observant and that helped you pick out a beautiful baby that was ready to party, to paraphrase Trent from Swingers.
But even better than that, you had the sac to go up to her and risk rejection and make it happen.
Well done.
