My Favorite Post Event Follow Up Message
If you meet a girl out at night or during an event you vibed with and you separate from them for any reason but get their IG and want to see if they’re interested or not, I like using this message: “Great meeting you last night. Did you have fun?” I think it’s very low investment on my end but also great in terms of the information you get back from whoever you meet. You’ll get a variety of responses and some are obviously a lot warmer and display more potential interest than others. There are two parts to the message. 1. I’m saying it was nice meeting them personally and 2. I’m asking them about their night/event experience. If they don’t respond at all I think it’s clear as to where they stand and what they actually thought (some of this could be they forgot meeting you due to alcohol or other drugs and doesn’t necessarily mean your interaction was necessarily bad at all). But a lot of girls might simply “like” the message in which case it probably means there was low to no interest there. A response such as “Yes! I had a great time!” seems to be a polite response as they don’t want to seem rude but also completely ignored the fact they met you and didn’t return the sentiment in that regard. “Nice meeting you as well. I enjoyed the event” is getting more positive as they’re specifically mentioning the part about meeting you and hitting both parts. In this case, I’d continue the conversation and potentially ask a follow up question to keep the conversation and micro compliance loops going. The most positive response I’ve seen is “Nice meeting you as well! I had a great time. Did you have fun yourself?” where now they acknowledged and reciprocated both parts as well as purposely trying to continue the conversation in the end. In this case, I like to ask a few other questions and potentially seed my next event, a container activity or potential date from there. *Caveat - this final response could also just be used to get your attention so proceed with caution. If they’re not interested in meeting up (the micro compliance loops stop) or give me some excuse as to why they can’t come to an event, I’ll usually try to end the conversation and tell them “Np. Have a great week! I’ll let you know about the next fun event I organize” or something similar.
