Ampers&d Finds His Mojo [SM3.0]

[Ampersnd]

Just had an instant coffee date with a girl I met from the gym last Wednesday. As a matter of describing her, she's short, blonde, a bit bubbly but down to earth, and a 8.5-9 (depending on who you ask).

What's funny is that I had crossed her path not once, but twice. It was a matter of perfect timing that I saw her the second time, recognized her, caught up to her and said hey.

We chatted and walked some of the way; I suggested we grab a coffee and chat and she agreed. She enjoyed talking to me for the greater part of 45 minutes, and I enjoyed listening. On a few occasions, I would lightly grab her hand (as part of the conversation) and play with it. On those occasions, she held it for nearly 5 seconds, and then pull back. This tells me that she's not fully convinced yet (or not sexually available). Will try again later; I suggested she cook a cultural dish for me later on, and she said yes (which could mean anything).

But man, I could feel my desire for her in the moment; my heart would even pound at times. I didn't care to be any more aggressive than what I had done, as I was leaving space for her to assert herself, and she didn't. Going harder wouldn't have done anything productive.
