Messaged a girl on OKCupid on Sunday. She was on the site at the time so we messaged a few times back and forth in real time. On my third message, I asked for her number and she gave it to me.

I texted her the next day and said I was free on Tuesday. She agreed to meet me after work (9pm). I usually don't move this quickly, but the girl I was going out with on Tuesday canceled on me.

I got to the bar earlier than she did. I was looking for a set to open for social proof, but it was pretty empty. I sat at the bar and chatted up the bartender.

She came up to me and said my name as a question. I smiled and gave her a hug. I told her we should get a table and we walked over to an empty one in the corner. She stood next to a chair against the wall and looked surprised when I told her to move down. She probably expected me to sit across from her, but kino is a lot easier and less threatening when sitting next to someone.

I started with some banter and built rapport; she was laughing, but had closed body language. The more comfortable she got, the more I leaned away.

I started kino immediately. Mostly shoulder, occasionally knee. She was shy when it came to touching. When she had a story or opinion, she would use the back of her hand and motion towards my lower thigh (like a slap, but never touching). I assumed it was an IOI and smiled.

We spend about 2 hours at the bar. I paid. She didn't even offer, but I have a job and she is a student.

When we left, I asked her which way she was going. It was the opposite way of where I was going, so I put my arm around her and told her to walk me to the train station. She began to walk away from me, so I took my arm away. She came back to my side and I rolled my hand down her lower arm and grabbed her hand.

We held hands for the rest of the walk. She said something that I disagreed with, or at least pretended to disagree with, and I began to walk away from her. She grabbed my hand tight and pulled me back towards her. Major IOI.

We got to the train station and I faced her, still holding her hand. I didn't say a word, but leaned in; successful k-close. She kissed me twice more before I left (she initiated). I think I'll call her again.
