Today after a long time I decided to approach a pretty girl in a tourist site and the conversation went as follows:

Me: Hey

Her: Hey

Me: How are you? Are you from here? (She seemed to be an outsider)

Her: No I’m from Venezuela but living in Colombia.. came here for vacation

Me: Oh that’s cool so you are from Venezuela, live in Colombia but are here in Panama for vacation?

Her: exactly haha

Me: Well nice to meet you I’m Ben..

Her: Nice to meet you I’m Alejandra

Me: and how’d you like it so far? Did you find it fun?

Her: Yeah I missed the beaches but the only thing I didn’t like is the hot temperature haha

Me: Definitely haha, I see you taking some good sun, have you been to Cartagena (in colombia)?

Her: Yes

Me: me too it looks pretty similar to here :)

Her: Yaah.

Me: Well, would you like to go out some day?

Her: I would but I’m leaving today :(

Me: Oh okay and are you ever coming back?

Her: Nope :(

Me: Well it was nice to meet you shake hands

Her: Nice to meet you.

I was pretty nervous but I managed to ask her out and I know I failed but I felt happiness inside regardless. The feeling I got after we finished the convo was something indescribable. I’d do anything to get that feeling again. I am encouraged to continue approaching girls in person.

Let me know if there’s anything I could do to improve, I’m willing to listen to anyone.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.
