so i got on the train yesterday morning and this 2-set came and sat down next to me. it was a HB7 and her UG friend.. at first i was hesitating to open (i was in school uniform and she wasnt, and lets just say iv had bad responses from most older-looking HBs iv opened while sarging in uniform and also i had never sarged on a train before so its another step out of my comfort zone.. excuses excuses). however, remembering Jsmooth's sig ("when in doubt, sarge!") i decided: why not?
i opened with an opinion opener on guys in fluro.. the HB said she loved them and her UG friend said she cant stand guys in fluro so i high-fived her as we shared the same opinion. it was difficult to pay more attention to the obstacle in this case however as the target was in between us on a 3-seater in a packed train, but luckily for me my target was extremely responsive and opened easily. she looked at my uniform and asked me where my school is (IOI) and which grade i was in. i found out she was in her last yr of high-school (same as me) and we talked about our subjects and stuff in general. (i also found out she was jigging school that day which explained why she wasnt in uniform).
after about 5 minutes of conversation she asked me wat nationality i was (IOI) and started returning my kino which was awesome. i hadnt even run a single routine on her.
this was definitely a first for me - every single HB i had gamed before this involved routines and C&F. just as the train was coming to my stop i said: "hey this is my stop but id love to continue this conversation.." we then exchanged numbers as i got off and she sms'd me later that day wen i was in class. (btw she missed my call later that day but responded with an sms explaining why she missed it and apologizing etc - should i have called her back or was i right to go ahead and reply through sms?).
any other thoughts/suggestions/comments welcome. =]
