I know this is kinda long so I'll bold the important stuff

Last weekend I was at this party (I'm in Uni) and there was this really cute HB8. Couple guys were fawning over her, but I was busy talking with a bunch of friends so I didn't pay much attention to her. After I had been there a while she came up and opened me while I was talking with some people (we had a mutual friend in the group). After this we broke off and started talking. I got her number, and we started making out, dancing, the whole nine, even one of her friends told me that the girl was really into me. Well towards the end of the night it became apparent that she had had a bit too much too drink. So once I got her friends all together I walked them all home. Late the next afternoon, I texted her to see how she was doing and made some brief talk just to get her thinking of me and then told her I had to go. I was planning on talking with her tomorrow, but she texted me tonight saying "Hey, I know this is sort of random but thanks for being such a nice guy at the party". I told her no problem, said that I really didnt have time to talk (which is true, its exams time) but then told her I wanted to meet her for coffee, to which she agreed.

Now for my question, I'm really not that good with day 2's, so any suggestions on anything I should do, or even talk about to keep things moving forward would be greatly appreciated.

Also.... Have I still avoided the "Nice Guy" ring or am I already thrown in?

Thanks in advance,

TallGuy,

First of all, everytime a girl says you're a "nice guy" doesn't mean you are out of the running man! There is nothing wrong with being a gentleman and walking the girls home since they were drinking. You did the right thing, and good job setting up the Day 2 so quickly!

Day 2s are very important to your dating life as you know. Coffee isn't bad but the problem I have with coffee is that it forces you to sit across from someone and make conversation. With some people it can be awkward at times. The other problem is in most coffee shop environments you are sitting across from the girl and can't really kino escalate. I would suggest going to an activity that is fun and gives you something to do.

Things such as: Shooting Pool, Go-Karts, Shopping, Arcades, Bowling, Long Walks, Laser Tag, Mini Golf, etc.

You want an "activity" to do so that the whole time you aren't forced to just sit hold your coffee and make conversation. Likewise you aren't making her do it either. If you start with coffee that might be okay but then bounce her to somewhere to have some FUN! This brings me to my next point of the Day 2.

The bounce is a useful tool in pickup whether you are in the first meeting with someone and bounce to a new venue. Or if you are on a Day 2 and you bounce to a new location. The more places she visits with you the more memories she has of you doing different things. This is a really powerful thing in getting her more comfortable with you and getting her use to going places with you. This makes getting the Day 3 or when you want to going back to your place easier.

Best of luck!

Hmm okay, yea coffee was just kind of a logical choice since its close to the classrooms and since she still has exams but I'll be done. She'll still have to study for more tests which makes it hard to have too much time, but we'll be leaving on break for almost a month after this week so I wanted to make sure I set something up before we left.

Can I then ask, how do I approach setting things up for after the month break?

bump...
I only have a day to figure this out and could really use the help...

Since we will be gone from campus for a month, how do I go about setting something up with her for after break?

Thanks,
~TallGuy

Tallguy,

I'm not really sure of the question. When you are on your next date then start threading in the idea of hanging out after the break when you guys get back. You can talk about wanting to do something really fun with her to highten her interest. Then from there you can just firm it up closer to time with text or phone calls.
