So I was at a karaoke bar with my friend, and ended up chatting up this bartender a week and a half ago. Talked, got her number, texted, took her out two days later. She actually remarked most guys at the bar ask for her number, but she liked how I asked her questions before asking her number (she actually went to school with my little sister).

When we went out I made sure to take some steps from seddit: kissing in the middle of the date, kino escalation, etc. She actually said I took her first kiss cake. Guys, can't stress enough learning how to kiss well makes you look. I didn't have my first kiss til 19, but I asked a bunch of different girls what they liked so I could be ready for when I did.

She didn't wanna hook up that night. Texted a bit on Tuesday, had a couple of flakey text messages, she ended up texting me last night apologizing for that. Kept it light, and played my game straight. She said she didn't wanna go out, tired from work. After some LMR over text, convinced her over to my place to spend the night. She was fantastic. Thanks, Seddit. I know I'll be in a good spot from now on, my confidence has soared ;)
