Need help guys

[Finesse]

Ok so I met this girl at Idle Rich, got her email address and we were now corresponding. This is how it started off

Me:Julia!
Thanks for the bashing the other night. I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Her:Sorry,
I am not Julia.

Me:Yes of course HB7, That’s right! How could I have been so blind?

Her:Sorry no offense, but where do I know you from?



Background story, I opened a set adjacent to hers 2 guys, 1 girl in that set , AMOGed the guys successfully, I noticed she was standing, the was a stool behind me so I gave it to her. Her friend HB7.5 was like "Awwww" and told me that was a nice thing. I said, "Don't let it go to your head, thats my good deed for the year." And then I continued with the set I was in. Once HB7.5 got opened by someone else, he was doing pretty well, I opened HB7. We bantered back and forth, I was just in it really for the experience and more social proof at first, (I had opened up 4 other sets in the area with better prospects) we continued, and the subject of jobs came up, she handed me a business card which I didnt look at and ut in my pocket. More banter, than I decided to cut it, and move on. Upon cutting it I said it was a pleasure meeting you, and then "and I forgot your name", "It's Julia right?" She gave me a "you better know my name" look. "Julie?" She then says "I gave you my card." I look at it and say "Oh right, HB7". "It's been a pleasure meeting you." I rejoin the different sets, with HB8's and 9's.

Long story short... I didnt DHV enough for them, so it seems my easy market is still 7 to 7.5's. I am trying to move the bar up. Anyway after I eject out of the other sets, I run into HB7 again, and she is now talking to some other guy. She introduces me, and I ask if I could have a word with her she says sure, and turns to face me. I tried to get her to come with me but she was reluctant. So we just stayed there. When I was in set with her earlier I almost dropped the floor out with my c&f I felt, So when I re-engaged this time I was hoping to get her isolated to "apologize" and run some kino tests, cube, and so on(her friend was still occupied with the first guy) but to no avail. She was turned to me, I said, "I felt as if I had offended her." and "That was not my intention, but if you want that guy to buy you a drink, i'll let him." She laughed and gave me a look as if she was calling me a smart ass.

Left the bar. and thats the conversation we had been having on email.
I hadn't really DHV'd at this point I feel.

Any advice? Ideas on what I should say next?

I generally think qualifying is pretty much mandatory on the first meeting. If you haven't gotten her to give you a legitimate reason to like her it will feel weird, like "why is this guy emailing me?"

I'm not good with that situation, but you don't have anything to lose. Try to qualify over email or phone. My feeling is that qualifying will be more important than DHV right now because of the awkwardness.

"You seemed kinda interesting when we met, I had this sense that (cold read), and now I'm trying to decide what I should do, since I don't really know if you're cool to hang out with. So, are you?"

You probably shouldn't use those words but that could be your underlying message.

If she says yes then you can take her word for it for now, and then it's perfectly reasonable for you to find out more about her, to meet sometime, or whatever.
