I had this great conversation with a this 31 yr old 8ish girl on the train. She was on her headphones but I got lucky cause a dude came in the car to play the guitar and I told her "Hey you can listen to live music now"
She said she had already turned her music off and and was listening though her headphones were still in place. I asked her what she was listening to before and then I noticed she was in all red and green so I told her she looked like she was ready for Christmas and she laughed. I asked if she had ever spent Christmas with snow and she said a few times when she was really young and lived in Italy.
Anyways we started talking about traveling and after the first personal question she gave me I started running through Galnuc... I always skip the G... maybe I should try it sometime.
It was so magical after I did L and I was ready to ask for her name she asked first! Haha I was almost ready for her to ask me where I usually hung out.
So when I got to the end and I asked if she wanted to go for a drink sometime and she responded with something like this
"Oh I really can't, I'm married. Well practically, I've been living with a guy for 3 years. I know you asking me to get a drink doesn't mean you're necessarily propositioning me but I don't know, making a guy friend on the train and seeing him doesn't feel right. You are really cool though, thanks for talking to me."
It was something like that, hard to translate. Should I have gone with "oh I just thought you were cool and wanted to make a new friend, I'm just and open kind of guy like that. Are you sure?"
Or something more direct like "Hey its just one drink, I think you can control yourself"
Or something else? I used to be against going for girls with boyfriends but I reread bang recently and I've turned to the dark side.... at least for a while.
