(this is from a comment i put on another post on here, i figured I'd let other sedditors know)

something i do to kino it up and get her to smile at the same time (this btw, is assuming you already have broken the ice)

  • ME: "can you hold something for me?"
  • HB-X: "sure" (assuming she agrees which I believe she will 99.9% of the time)
  • ME: (search your pockets) "can you hold your hand out so I don't drop it?"
  • HB-X: (holds her hand out)
  • ME: (take her hand and hold it) "Thanks" and then smile.
