Hey guys, I finally talked to a girl I had been trying to meet all semester. It started off fine, she was real interested and receptive. I asked her about her studies, and she told what it was for, then we went back and forth with small talk about where we were from, and where we went to school (undergrad). The interaction was no more than 3 minutes, but I started doing more talking towards the end than her. You see I felt some difficulty finding common ground and I got a little nervous. So once I knew I was sinking I kind of ended it abruptly with me saying I was going to the gym. She closed with a cordial "see you around" but is it possible she caught onto me clamming up when it started to go south? I am now really confused as to how to feel, since I didn't get to engage like I would have wanted and may not have formed a good connection.
I'm terrified I dropped the ball on this one, and she was a beauty. Can this be salvaged or should I move on to the next one? Having to cold approach her again would be too much investment (gut instinct) and I'm not sure if there was enough from our conversation where I could get her to chase. I guess the plan at the moment is to just go about as normal and judge her reaction if I run into her. What do you think?
