I met this girl online. We had a date arranged for thursday. But a few hours before the date she said her sister reminded her they had a dinner with an italian lawyer who could be a useful contact for her (she is studying at law school). Generally i dont accept group dates so i tried to make excuses but she pleaded with me to come so i went along with it.
I join her and her sister and we take a taxi to the hotel where they've planned dinner and i make both girls laugh quite a lot including a joke which even made the taxi driver laugh. I meet the Italian lawyer who is short, fat and bald but very arrogant and i can tell he is trying to engage in one-upmanship but do not take the bait. We have dinner and they start speaking a lot in Italian only occasionally translating. At one stage the girl asks me if she looks like her profile photos-i say the first one-and she says yes because that was recent and ive changed my hair style. But apart from that she doesnt talk to me much and generally it is the sister who occasionally translates. Later i find out the italian supposedly has a serious girlfriend.
The Italian lawyer insists on paying the bill for us all. Which is nice because it was an expensive restaurant which i wouldnt have chosen myself. And they then insist i join them at a bar to have a watermelon martini. We go there and the italian is quite touchy feely with the girl. she seems to go along with it. A lot of the time i just stare into space and im quite bored as i feel left out. On one occasion they say they could imagine me as a guitarist (i think they interpreted my quietness and daydreaming as intellectual/musician type behaviour) i said i was a piano showing my hands and she said they were girly hands but then took my hands to compare size.
Eventually the lawyer and the sister leave and i get five minutes alone with the girl. i gaze at her and she returns good eye contact and i look away first. we talk and she says sorry we didnt get to have a proper date but she said that she found traditional dates a bit awkward and this way she could see how i reacted to situations (i cant remember her exact words).
Then they came back and said we had to go so we went our separate ways.
A few days later i texted her saying we should have a more intimate date just us to explore our chemistry. she replied that she agreed we didnt have much of a chance to talk privately and suggested coffee.
Im not really sure what to read into this.
Is she agreeing to a second date because she is giving me the benefit of the doubt and feeling bad that she put me in a weird situation with the italians. or should i treat it as a definite sign that she is attracted to me and wants to get to know me better and is open to being seduced.
Coffee is a rather insipid second date and wouldnt have been my choice so it makes me think she is unsure about me.
