Been messing around with tinder the past couple of days and got a few decent threads going. This one in particular seemed to go really smoothly, but I wonder if I escalated too quickly.
All this was in a 2-3 hour time period
TINDER
ME: Hey, what's up cutie
HER: Hi Brad! Just got home from the weekend at ** beach... How was ur weekend?
ME: Was pretty casual, but definitely needed. Paintball and bar hopping... Can't go wrong. How was ** beach? Hope it wasn't cloudy like **
HER: Haha deff not, bar hopping is always a good choicely beach was fun, not that much people, it was quite relaxing
I've actually never had a chance to paintball!ME: Oh we definitely need to fix that! it's tons of fun. I imagine there's a paintball place somewhere in *** (I'm new here as well)
HER: I hope we can! How long u live here?
ME: I travel down from ** during the weekdays. Been coming down here for the past 2 months or so. Hey we should move this to text... Tinder is a struggle! Text me #
TEXT
HER: I was just about to ask u for the same thing ! Its **** by the way
ME: Hey ****. Ya i never know when I get a tinder message
HER: Haha exactly.... So u r coming like every weekend to ***** and then back to **? Why is that?
ME: The opposite. I come down to **** during the week to consult at ***** and then i head up to ** for the weekends... It's pretty hectic
HER: Oh gotcha so I can catch u just during the week., that actually work better for me too
so u r not thinking about moving to **ME: Yup occasionally I'll hang out during the weekend. I've thought about moving here, but haven't gone past the thought. I live out of a marriott at the moment
.ME: What brought you down here?
HER: Where is it? Downtown?
HER: Um i work as an aupair in here have u eve heard about it?
ME: Unfortunately not. It's the ***** (marriott)
HER: That's pretty close to me
like 15 minutesME: You should come by and check it out
HER: Wow, that was fast! lol
ME: Haha. We have a pretty awesome bar here as well
HER: Now u got me! Wheres bar theres *** (her name) lol
HER: Ok Brad think I'm gonna go sleep now.. have a great night
ME: Night ***** (her name)
Going to ask her out to drinks tonight.
EDIT: Guess I'm good.. here's this morning's texts
ME: So how's your day going so far? I hear the life of an aupair is pretty intense
HER: Haha it is but I work jus till 5 today and I had off in the morning but next month I start to take classes so I don't know how it looks
Any opinions on how to play it? Should I text more and add interest or suggest drinking tonight? She did suggest she's off at 5... I wanna make sure I don't move TOO quickly without getting enough interest on her end.
