Feeling Confident

August 30th, 2006

I felt really confident today, and made a few social calls.

Jessica @ Co-Op

Jessica and I get on pretty well. She’s jokey and friendly. Definitely someone I’d like to be friends with. With that in mind, I asked her out for a drink as friends. Just friends, as I am happily attached.

Me
What ya doing tomorrow?
Jess
I’ve got the day off. Why?
Me
I thought it’d be cool if we went for a drink, as friends.

She giggled and blushed. She obviously thought I meant more than just friends. She ended up refusing to give me her number but rather took mine.

Positive to take away: reaching out.

To learn from: Got defensive when she said she’d consider it. I wasn’t expecting that! Stay calm. Next time say:”What, you need to consider whether you’d be thirsty tomorrow?”

    Hey.

    Great idea to track your personal development with social skills. I’ll be definitely checking up on your blog and might be creating one of my own as well :)
