Well I'm about halfway through my first week of school, and there haven't been ANY decent women. I figured in an acting school there'd be a lot of model types...but nothing.
Today however, I met this chick who was totally my style. I wouldn't say she's hot in the usual "model" types i go for, but she was really cool...she was a cross between Bif Naked and Mandy Moore, so she had a rugged, alternative side and also a sweet look too.
Anyway, I noticed her sitting accross from me, but at a 12 foot distance, there wasn't too much i could do. One thing i did notice was that no one was really talking to her. We had a 15 min. break, so during the break (outside class), I walked by her and gave her a smile (she was on her cell phone), which she returned almost immediately. I headed upstairs (early by about 10 min.) and shortly afterward she followed. She sat back in a seat that was only about 2 seats away from me now and i initiated convo.
I kept the convo pretty casual, and kept the mystery up from my end. eg) i asked her name, but didn't give mine until she asked; she asked where i was living, I told her Hollywood; she asked where abouts in Hollywood, i got a bit more specific; she asked the street, i got even more specific...y;know the ususal kind of stuff. I also kept lots of eye contact as well.
There were 2 other girls next to me, and they tried getting into the convo, but most of her attention was directed towards me. Whenever she started to ask more about me, I'd answer a bit, but then re-direct so we talked about her more. The class started getting more full, so as the noise level got higher, i instictively moved into the chair next to her. It wasn't an uncomfortable move, and it felt right at that moment, so it was all good.
Unfortauntly, the teacher is EXTRMEMLY strict with talking in class, so our convo didn't go too far from there. The remaining class time was spent listening to a lecture.
DJ instict told me to get her number at the end of class, but i didn't feel like I established anything with her, or at last elicit values enough to warrant her giving it. It felt like it would have been like "hi I'm Tantric, what's your name, give me your number"...
Kino also didn't "feel" right, so i didn't attenpt that either.
At the end of class, I could have asked her for lunch (eg. i'm heading for lunch, you coming? Or something like that), but she ended up takling to the teacher for a bit after class. Me "waiting" for her would have been TOTALLY AFC. I also didn't have any cash with me so that ruled lunch out. I made eye contact again, smiled, told her to take it easy, and left it at that. I didn't want to end up looking like the "nice guy" who talks to the "new girl" on her first day, and besides it showed that i had other "imprtant" thjings to do, no?
I tend to have a "not caring" attituted, which works well for me, but it also DOESN'T work sometimes, as know I sometimes use it as an excuse NOT to close. Does that make sense?
Something didn't feel right, so given this situation, was I listening to the right DJ instict of NOT closing, as i didn't think i established enough, or was that the AFC part of me?
I only have the one class with her, so i'll see her again next week, if not at least in the hall tomorrow.
I'd like to # close next class, so what would the next logical step be?
Ideas?
