In all my experiences of pickup, I've never ran Game on the beach. Sure, there's the typical urban setting, the city, and college, but there's got to be some DO's and DON'T's when it comes to attraction on the shore. But before I go on, I think a little backstory should be in order:

Backstory
Before my family and I finally moved out of my old house for good, the garage needed to be cleaned. Amongst the clutter and debris, I discovered my 4th grade yearbook. I flipped through the pages, recognized a face, and realized that I'm friends with a classmate on Instagram. And by god did she develop. I sent her a pic of her 4th grade picture to her on Instagram, and that snowballed into a looong conversation that eventually (and smoothly) ended with us exchanging digits. We'd text each other everynowandthen. No biggie.

One day, she shot me a text, saying "Hi! Whatsup?" I responded with, "If we're gonna pillow-talk, ya might as well call me lol". That got a good laugh outta her, so she called me. We talk for a bit, then I gave her the suggestion of continuing the conversation via SPAM. On SPAM, I discover that she lives in Pennsylvania (I'm in Jersey), has just one female friend, and recently broke up with her ex and is "taking a break from dating." I say that it's cool.

Finally, I told her how we should hit up the beach and hang out, like go to the boardwalk and swim in the ocean. She agrees, and the hangout is set some point in May-June. Just the two of us. 1-on-1.

The whole point of this post is to know exactly what I should and shouldn't do, as in not fuck up the whole meetup where she never makes contact with me again. I think she's interested in me, but I just don't know if I should kiss her or not (bc if it doesn't turn out so well, then I've ruined a good friendship.) But then again, I wouldn't mind just being friends with her, either. Damn, my feelings are mixed. But going back to the main point, what would you guys do on the beach if faced with a similar situation?
