I had a great day today! Just looking for some feedback. I was cruising through our grate DC art museum Hirshhorn in my trusty Kuschal and I encountered a great woman!
As I entered a ground floor gallery I saw an attractive woman taking photos of several works. I also noticed that she glanced at me a couple of times. Then we came to the same painting and she gave me a big smile.
When we tracked to the same piece of art and she set off the "too close" alarm" I explained that she had stepped over the electronic line on the gallery floor. She then engaged me in conversation. We talked for at least 15 minutes. During the course of our conversation she asked about me, and told me about herself. She was in DC on vaca with her daughters "who were with her at the time" she talked of the new Pres, and her home town of Austin TX. I offered my first name, she gave me her first name, and after about two beats she offered her last name, and said she hoped to see me at another gallery later this week.
I gave her my card with my cell phone!
What do you ladies think? An admirer, curious, a friendly lady or a devo? She stared the interaction and i tried to disengage several times but she kept the conversation going. We exchanged a lot of info.
In any case if was 15 minutes of flirting with a very attractive woman, and it made me feel great. Why could she not be local?
No chance she calls, but if she did! Devo Ladies are Cool!
What do you think?

I don't think it matters WHY she seemed attracted, as much as that she was attracted. She's friendly, isn't put off by your disability, attractive, appears to have an interest in you and she can hold a 15 minute conversation. That's the important stuff, right? I'd be calling her to set up a time to meet at another gallery.  |

I agree with Phil. She is clearly interested! You didn't mention that you had her number- but if you do... have you called her yet?  |

Not much more to add from the other posters,but it shows if you don't act when an opportunity come up look what you miss & you certainly took you chance there. No idea if she was a dev or not,think you will find out if she calls you.I suspect she didnt give you her number as you didnt mention it.Hope she calls you. |

Thanks for the positive feedback!
As she was with her daughters I did not think she would give me her number, so I just left it in her court. No call yet, but it sure was fun!

dude, it was a similar encounter that wound up with me being informed about this website,,,when the 2 encounters with the woman, both w/i 1 week, occured i simply couldnt fathom that this awesome woman could be actually interested in me despite the urging of my best bud that she wanted to see me....and she got away & i never saw her again  |

"If I could reach you I would hurt you." As the great Brain would say to Pinky.
Devo or not she was digging you. You should have given her your email. An email is much easier to follow through with. For the next time you run across something so obvious and yes there will be a next time give your email. Don't offer it. Just hand it over and say something smooth but not greasy.

I don't think it matters WHY she seemed attracted, as much as that she was attracted. AMEN I think we get caught up & mindfuck ourselves into messing up what could potentially be something that most of us seek friendship, sex,love,companionship, or whatever ur looking for. So just remember next time a gal checks you out stop asking why & ask why not? That sounds cheesy but I prob heard it on Oprah or something (or maybe you & I need to grow a pair!) Ive been in situations where a girl is flirting with me & I'm so excited that i forget to be a "guy" & take initiative does that sound at all familiar? I mean its one thing to smile & checkout (doubtakes w/ a huge or adorable smile give me goosebumps!) but convo for 15 mins is a def enough to warrant asking for her digits, maybe she didn't wanna seem too forward. What do I know! |

Agreed. 15 minutes of talk isn't just for being polite... that's interest.

ben is right on the mark,,,men are bad enuff about getting signals wrong and adding in our self preceptions...ya just gotta take the stance that if she seems interested enuff to strike up a conversation consider her interested until you learn otherwise...remember,,,like most things its a numbers game...if you pick enuff apples eventually u will find a sweet one...

Well, I hate to be the lone-dissenter, but sheeeesh, you're gonna scare em all off if every time a goodlookn girl engages u with conversation, even a little flirtations, you try to hook up...phone number, or push for more. If a girl digs you, she'll give the sign, and it's not just a great conversation over 5 minutes. I don't subscribe to the 'numbers game' - think it's cheesy!!

I don't know, mang... she initiates a conversation that lasted at least 15 minutes. Told him her first and last name, where she lives, personal stuff (2 kids), said she hoped to run into him again and she was flirting. I don't think she'll be scared away too easily, lol. |

Yeah, maybe ur right, Dr. Phil...lol I don't know...I noticed Faith is the only chick that responded, so maybe the female side of our human race wants to keep us in the dark. I was never good at that weird moment of trying to either give/get number. I just feels crazy without much, except a good flirty conversation. Female opinions welcomed!! lol |
