I was in the army, last week this chapter of life ended for me. While I was there we always talked about girls with the boys there. Im not going to rate girls but there is very very cute girl who´s friends with one of the guys, we always talked about her and made a laught.
Today I talk with the dude who is friend with that girl and he tells me that "I told her about you and now she wants you to contact her". Im like "well alright, what did you say?" and he goes: " Oh man, I was drunk at the party.. I told her that theres a muscular boy in the army and hes madly in love with you "

Obviously that is not the case and now Im thinking of how should I start talking to that girl, shoudl I play along with the love story? Any tips to give? Right now I can just do Fb messages as a starter.

I would just say: sup? My mate told me you wanted to talk?

Yeah, thats something similar to what I went with.

Her response was : Mhm, very important story
I replied just now to that with : Alright. I hope that youre not telling me about your problems, because I dont do counseling .
