SITUATION: Piccadilly Circus (London), we go into a bar/club place. There's HB7 and HB8 sitting in the corner chatting to each other.

ME: Hey guys. I need a female opinion on something. How can I tell, early in a relationship, if my girl has a dangerous love-hate relationship.... with chocolate?
HB7 & 8: (laugh). All girls have it.
HB8: I love chocolate. I eat it all the time. I've got some in my bag right now.

(My wing grabs a stool, and says "Here" - thanks mate. I sit down)

ME: Fluff about chocolate.
(HB8 takes Dairy Milk out her bag, breaks off a chunk and feeds me)
ME: (trying NLP) Ok then. I'm a man so this is just a nice taste, no better than an apple or a pizza slice. What's it with girls that chocolate drives them crazy. When you eat chocolate how does it make you feel
HB8: Really good
ME: Describe it. Where does the feeling start....... Do you get a tingle down your arms (she nods, I kino)....
HB8: Then it's like it fills my brain..... etc

More fluff, some DHV stories, kino etc. HB8 goes to the bar so I befriend the obstacle more. My wing comes to talk to her too and when I see the target is talking to the barman (I later find this is her regular club) I decide to roll off rather than look like a tool

40min later I rejoin them. Can't remember opener. Getting crazy IOIs and doing CF. Decide to go for the close - using a closer I read on this forum

ME: You're weird, but I like you. If I wanna continue this conversation how do I do it
HB8: (gets out phone) You can take my number
ME: OK (puts number into phone). I'm gonna call you now but don't pick up. I'm gonna leave a message telling you how much fun you're having. (rings)
ME: (to voicemail, looking at HB8) Hi, it's Krauser. Just leaving a message to remind you what a great time you had last night. (pass phone to HB8). Here, tell yourself what a great time you're having
HB8: (into phone, laughing alot) Hi HB8. This is awesome, I'm having so much fun. Ha ha
ME: (Grab phone) OK, that's enough.

Been swapping texts the past couple of days, so seems solid
