Nothing if that's how you talk. I'm just saying they should be your own words. "Touch base" would sound weird coming from me and I'm sure from others as well. El D's line was good but I'm saying you should rarely copy-paste someone else's words.

Yeah, I suppose I could be more direct but that's splitting hairs. I did what a lot of women want men to do and that is take the lead and ask for her number. If prefacing it with "if you feel like [meeting for a drink]" instead of "let's [meet for a drink]" is a deal breaker... eh, it's over complicating the process IMO.

see i don't really see that as being assertive at all... you're putting it on her to reach out with her number and also implying that she might not want to meet up.

No, I didn't see her as anything more than a casual sex partner with no hope of a LTR. Still, I expected her to tell me that she was moving on as opposed to just disappearing. I feel like I would have had a conversation with her if the roles were reversed.

The general consensus around here is dropping your number in an email is weak. Your point is broader though and I see what you mean. Given that she seems like someone who enjoys the emailing process, I probably should have went with "If you're anything like me you like to save the conversation for a drink, drop your number in a message and we can sort out the details". Oh well.

Been there and I didn't like it either. Bottom line, many women have trouble / are afraid of confronting men's feelings when it comes to break-ups. They'll sooner just vanish than have "the talk."

Made a gym date with Tinder girl via Facebook chat for tomorrow. Jenni's fantasy date for me

She's a former fatty too so we were chatting about dieting and calories.

This will be the first time I have 2 dates in the same day

i mean i wouldn't drop my number until after a date was set... It just seems kind of weird to ask for a girl's number before you have anything set when you're already communicating via email. Hey let me get your number so we can switch to another form of digital communication and set a date

A lot more natural to just say "ok great, I'll see you on Thursday! My number is xxx in case you need to get in touch." or whatever. Never had a girl not text just to say hey here's my number within 24 hours. More often than not they just give their number to you over e-mail after you ask them out anyways.

Penelope, you still dating that classy Swede?

ya we had an awesome date on sunday, met her in bk we walked all the way to soho, had a drink then went to whole foods cooked dinner at my apt and she slept over.

lol poor bloke I u got a root mate glglgl hope some run good comes ur way

I have a weird dating situation/trip report to tell but I'm just always paranoid one of the girl's friends will stumble upon this website and recognize the story.

In related news, I went down to TJ last week and lost control. Spent 3 hours in a Vip Room overlooking the entire Hong Kong Club. Dropped $500 for 5 girls in that time span, including a 3some. It was so much more fun than dating. One girl was riding me while I had my finger in the other girl's ahole.

wat

And you thought there was nothing to do in NY. Well done. If she has a cute friend we should double date

TJ=Tijuana?

Yeah lol. And before anyone asks, yes I wrapped up. What was cool too, they had a flat screen playing non stop porno.

I can't imagine how dirty a $33/hr Tijuana hooker is

They get tested rigorously.

ya i mean i guess i just didn't know what to do with a crazy girl who said she couldn't walk cause of a removable cast and couldn't drink alcohol or coffee and thought the wv was the best place to meet because it had the weakest urine scent in nyc. she actually seemed really funny, she said in her profile that she named her barbie dolls anorexia and bulimia as a child... was kind of looking forward to meeting her until she bombarded me with texts.

lol mexico..

Lots of turnover then I presume

Probably.

Dont: in the future, just pick something and tell her. Way easier for everyone and makes you come off more confident - because you are!

ATF: <blah blah re: something in her last message>. Would love to continue this over a drink! How about Thursday 8ish? Send me a text 123-456-7890 and we'll figure out details.

So just woke up after last night's date. She was smoking hot. We met in this posh hotel in Soho that was screening the Lovelace film she was reviewing. It was actually pretty good. I glanced at her a few times, but had to be strategic about when for obvious reasons lol. We had a drink pre and post film in the hotel bar and went to a pub nearby then bounced, made out with her in the tube station, incredibly passionate kiss (she's Eastern European), hottest girl I have ever kissed in my life.

This is probably the third or fourth date I've had with a super-hot girl (like 8+) and I still felt intimidated. I had to go to the toilet about three times to **** during the evening but managed to hold it together. May sound obvious but some advice here, the last one I ****ed up by alluding to her attractiveness, never do this in any way with this level of girl. If you just treat her like any other girl and not be overawed she will assume you're a seasoned pro with her type. Looking into her eyes though just made me want to **** myself but as we said goodbye I felt so much better.
