How would you introduce yourself to a potential blind date?

"Hey, I know this is totally random but I was chatting with Luna the other day and she wanted to try and set us up. I don't normally do blind dates but from what she was telling me you seemed really cool and I think it would be a fun thing to try.

Anyway, I'm going for drinks at ____ on ____. If you're up for an adventure you should come along."

This acknowledges that the situation is a little out of the ordinary which builds comfort. You're also coming from the frame of being a selective man which means you wouldn't just go on a blind date with any random chick but this girl seems cool enough for you to break your rule.

Have her feel your face. She might be seeing a world on fire but don't let that stop you.

All joking aside, relax. A good "Hi! I'm ______" never fails.

Don't surprise them. This usually is seen as a turn off. Be open, friendly, and casual and go from there.

So this worked for my mom who got set up with my stepdad using the line "so i see you know (in your case Luna), thats one strike against you."

Whatever you do don't take her cane...

Very naturally, very direct. Anyway she already knows you're gonna write. Right? What about something like:

"Hey, this is Fulano, Luna's friend. Nice to meet you."

This is goint to break ice. Then just be yourself (taking out any asshole-like feature).

"Hi! I'm Legoblocparty. Luna's Friend!"

Dont overthink this bro...

probably I'd use braille if she truly is a blind date.

Don't send a dick pic...first rule. Seriously, no dick pics. Just say whats up and its random and set up something like meeting for coffee.

Hi, you see our mutual friend Luna, instead of introducing us in person, like a normal person, she#s got me to message you. She know you have a thing for __ men and I haven't tried __ yet so lets make this happen.
