I am at a college event at my church and the emcee asks us to introduce ourselves to someone we do not know. I was standing in the back and I saw her. Light was shining so brightly on her, it was like I was being probed to walk up to her. I ran up to the front of the room and knocked the dude out of the way that was walking towards her and I introduced myself, and she did the same.
We did not speak much with the music and the communicator following, but afterwards we broke into groups for discussion and she talked a lot. And so did I. We spoke to one another after group and I invited her out to coffee on the spot. Minutes later she gets into my car and we are heading to Caribou. This is too freaking good to be true. I turned on my favorite artist's brand new album that had just released that day and she asked how I already had it. I returned and said it released that day. I then took it out of the CD player in my car and gave it to her to rip to her computer. She asked when she could return it and I said at dinner and the Braves game next week. She smiled and said okay.
It was that easy and I had never been such a smooth operator in my life. How did I get a girl this gorgeous to go on two dates with me? In one night! Confidence, my friend. Fast forward a month later and we both were in different seasons of life. I know for the next go-around, I am going to play my hand the same way.
