If you're going to text over calling, then make a joke about where you met or what you were up to or straight up shoot logistics "I'm free after 3 if you want to grab coffee". Doesn't matter what you say, if she's interested she'll go. Also starting with 'hi' doesn't go anywhere and isn't interesting in the slightest.

Think about how she has every other guy texting her. you think a simple “Hi” is gonna make you stand out? I would either use call back humor to something that happened in the interaction, or an interesting opener that gives her something to respond to. One of my go-to’s is “Hey trouble”

Ask her if she wants to meet tonight around 7 at "any location". not rocket science, don't try to come up with a joke or impress her. Any attempt to impress her is in her frame, not yours.

I’ve been using “Hey (girls name) - it’s the best looking guy from (where ever you met).” A little humor and a little confidence. Has been working wonders.

Reference or create an inside joke pertaining to any topic you guys discussed in person. Just saying "hi" is lazy and comes off annoying to her because she now has to other "start" a conversation out of the blue with you, or just say "hi" back.
