Took the plunge and cold approached today.

was at a crosswalk waiting with a cute brunette. had to open 2-3 times before she caught on i was talking to her then she pulled an ear bud out.

I recovered, chatted her up a little, cut to the chase and asked for her no. when she said she was heading to work, got rejected.

Major takeaway, aside from feeling hella proud over the cold approach, is i cant always tell earbuds are in use, and id like to get her attention without appearing needy before i launch into a set.

how do you guys address this?
