I’m newly single and have just started attending CrossFit classes. I've been wearing silly bandz for years, and although girls have asked about them before, I never thought much of it.

During a recent class, a girl asked me about my silly bandz. I jokingly said, “They’re making a comeback! I’ve been saying that for the past three years!” She laughed, which was nice.

I wanted to talk to her after class, but she was chatting with another girl, so I just went home.

How can I strike up a conversation with her or any other girl who asks about my silly bandz in the future? Any tips for turning that into something more?
