I was at dinner rally earlier this evening, a political-type function. Now, I went there specifically for that purpose, but when I got there - politics was the last thing on my mind. I never would have expected that many 20-25 y/o women there, compared to the same lot of men. (BBJ-Looked to me like it WAS about 4:1 ratio in the room, in my age group) Five or ten minutes after getting there, a (22-24) redhead (my weakness) walks by casually and..
Me: "Hi" with a smile
Her: "Hi" returning a warming smile.
Me: Have you met [The Candidate's Name] yet?
Her: I haven't had the pleasure yet, but I do hope to meet him.
Me: Pause for a moment of silent eye contact and a bigger smile
Her: a bigger smile
Me: What's your name?
Her: Big smile- I'm [Pretty Hot Redhead].... And you are...?
Me: I'm [DJ Armand]
Her: It's a pleasure to meet you DJ
I started to ease my way into the DJ by asking about her interests in the party functions, why she's there tonight, college, where she's from, etc, etc. I pretty much had her talking 80-90% of the time once I got her started.
By the time I was getting ready to ask for her home phone number (about 1 hr, hour and 15), she was sitting closely doing the "forearm touch" each time she laughed out loud - which was quite often. Well, to make a not-really-that-long-of-a-story short, I said (in a tone that let her know I was wrapping up and moving on for the night): "Well [Pretty Hot Redhead], I enjoyed meeting and speaking with you
" and before I could really get any further she had her hand in her purse grabbing a pen out of her checkbook. After securing the # and closing, I then made my exit directly.
There's another party on election night (Tuesday) that i'll probably call her on and ask if she'd like to go. I think her interest was high enough to warrant calling a day or two sooner than usual. After that, I think I should give her a little while to marinate, so to speak.
Maybe calling the following monday for a wednesday evening bite to eat and coffee. By then, provided things continue as plotted, her interest should be through the roof in two weeks because:
1) I did not and will not appear too eager, hungry, desparate, etc., but scarce.
2) I'm only asking her out on weekdays for the next 2 weeks = mystery and challenge, she's going to be wondering why i'm only asking her out on weekdays evenings. Soon enough, she should start hinting around about the weekends.
3) I did not respond to her initiating touch tonight = self-control.
4) I made her laugh the entire time we were together tonight - emotion
Any imput, anyone?
