[Title should be: when not enough rapport is built]

Hey guys, how do you ease into a meetup for social game if although there's some comfort of knowing each other, rapport isn't really at the level for an outing.

I'm going by this definition of rapport: "a feeling of mutual trust and authentic connection with another person." (http://www.pualingo.com/rapport/)

I know texting isn't a smart way to warm up any enthusiasm, so I think I've maxed out the escalation until the next meeting (class is 2 weeks later - a bit too long)
