Crush

Me: Hi.
​Him: Hey.
​Me: How has your day been?
Him: Good, how about yours?
​Me: Good.
​Him: So, what are some of the things you do in your spare time?
​Me: um, well I love reading and photography. What about you?
​Him: I love reading too.
​Me: Cool. What type of genre do you read?
​Him: Usually anything with an adventure. You?
​Me: I love practically anything like adventure, mystery, survival, anything other worldly.....If that makes sense.
​Him: Yeah, I love those too. How is book club going? I've seen you there a few times.
​Me: Well, I just finished the book really early so I have nothing to read. I usually stay up late on the weekends and read.
​Him: So you are free Saturday night.
​Me: Yeah, as far as I know.....Why?
​Him: I was wondering if you would um like to go to the movies with me.
​Me: Like on a date?
Him: I'll pick you up at seven.



​Friend: Stop daydreaming and talk to him.
​Me: Ok, I think I will do it this time.
Friend: Oh, here's your chance, he's walking this way.

Him: Hi.
Me: Hey.

    Ooh, I really liked this and I can totally relate. So did "He" actually take "Me" on the date? Or was it just wishing? I really really liked this. Thanks for sharing!

    This is so cool! I loved the idea, because it completely relatable. I think too often I try to map out conversations and even situations in my mind and then they end up going like that. Thanks for sharing!
