Update Seddit - does she flake or not? Full close?
I usually prefer it without the question mark, but good on ya!
[–]apocalyptic 6 points7 points8 points 15 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
I'm in agreement there.
Usually the message as such works better for me:
Drinks tomorrow. <Time>, <Place>.
[–]Box-Monkey 1 point2 points3 points 15 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I was about to suggest this, but you beat me to the punch
[–]warchamp7 7 points8 points9 points 15 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I recommend alcoholic beverages over punch, but to each their own

You seem to have misunderstood; He beat me to spiking the punch.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 15 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I prefer spiked punch to the other kind.

Grats! For the record, I disagree with what some of the others have said here about the question marks. I think you played it perfectly. As a female, if I got a text message saying, "Drinks tomorrow," period, no question mark, I'd feel like I'm being given an order. That can work sometimes, but it runs the risk of sounding douchey. "Drinks? Tomorrow?" sounds charming. I'd be much more likely to smile at that than at a command.

From a purely psych standpoint, people are very bad at prediction how they will react to a situation they are not actually in. I'm of mixed opinion on the question mark issue, but word to the wise "because I'm a female" doesn't trump "because I've tried both many times and this works better".
That said, thanks for the input Ivianna. I've had both work, although it can depend on context a lot. Actually, I would contribute the "bang" alternative as well.
That is: "Hey let's grab a drink tonight!"
All very different vibes. Experiment with them all and see when they work. :)

Drinks? Tomorrow?
[–]DocTomoe -1 points0 points1 point 15 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I'd feel like I'm being given an order.
That's the point. Orders are subconsciously followed if the one giving them is perceived as alpha. If you don't follow, you are usually not worth the effort.
Welcome to Seddit think.

Yep. The setup was easy too, she's super eager. Game on.

Score!
[–]RedErin 2 points3 points4 points 15 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Good job, it's supposed to be the #1 text to send, I'd like to see who else it works for.
[–]ngroot 3 points4 points5 points 15 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Is there a context for this that makes this an interesting or surprising result? Don't most people like going out for drinks?

Sex? On my couch? 10 PM?
[–]ngroot 0 points1 point2 points 15 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I'm flattered, but I suspect that I'm not your type.

This question deserves a response.

[–]smellydawg 0 points1 point2 points 15 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
So I guess the rule about asking out via text message has gone by the wayside? I've only done it once for a first date and it was because I was at a football game at the time but shit worked. Are any of the womens here still put off by the text date?
[–]sockthepuppetry 2 points3 points4 points 15 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
There are no rules. Just don't text to avoid calling because you're being a pussy.
[–]cheddarchexmix 0 points1 point2 points 15 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
All my dates are arranged via text message, almost without exception. I find text msg gets a much higher response rate than calling. If I call, and she doesn't answer, I have to either leave a message, or just hang up, both of which I feel give her a perception of me being a little desperate.

Drinks, later.

Sadly this reminds me of my sad excuse of a girlfriend.
