I'm still sorta new to this but I'm pretty stoked on some recent results! This is kind of a double-post, but I felt that it was more applicable to this forum with where it's at since I last posted.
I have an issue with escalation. I'm
very good at reading others and always accurate with it for anything marketing/job related. I don't know why it is different with girls, but I'm way less aggressive. Point being, I could really use some analysis on my online to text to date escalation on this one. While I feel like I did better than ever, I still feel like there is much to be learned and improved on and some criticism would do just the trick.
Lastly - this girl is insanely f'ing hot and I've had a vendetta to be with a Russian girl since I haven't yet. I'm also hoping that someone may have advice on things to do
for the date as well to ensure success - whether it be certain good tricks for escalating or how to ensure the close. I need my A-Game.

Ahhh! Gotcha. I've been taking courses at Rady's @ UCSD, but I've been stuck on the career track for awhile... so it's been preoccupying. What do you plan to do with it?
And what keeps you awake at this crazy hour?
I'm XXXXXXXXX, by the way.

was doing some school project!:)
(at this point I didn't know if she was interested, considering that she didn't even answer the first question, or give me her name)

Uh ohhh... School project on a Saturday?! While I appreciate the dedication; you aren't the no-play, all-work type... Are you?

(My thoughts: Holy shit, it worked!)
So, I open up with the standard opener. Conversation is below. I escalated quick because I felt like I had to, if that makes sense?
I left it at that so I had the last word.
Mentally, I already know I have put her on a pedestal. She can't see it yet, but I don't want her to.
Any criticism/tips you all can provide on this is most appreciated.
Also, should I wait to message her until Tuesday and not tomorrow?
