I got invited to a half day chat show event in London last Saturday, on dating and relationships. I was invited (along with my camera) so I figured it was a good opportunity and went.
I took some photos, including some really good ones of the lady who was interviewing the panel, "L" - and if I didn't have any self-control, I would have been drooling. She's so positive, friendly, and utterly drop dead gorgeous.
I know I've not got much to base my opinion on, but so far - ding-a-ling.
Unfortunately, L's seeing someone. However, I'm determined to keep contact and it would be good to build my network, and good for my profile as a photographer.
I messaged L about the photos (I've been messaging people about them anyway), and volunteered my services for future events. I was complimentary towards her skills as a chat show host, and her positive attitude to men (avoided references to looks).
I think the response is very positive but leaves me with questions:
"Hi Alberto, thank you so much for the great feedback and kind words, I'm so glad that you enjoyed it and that you would love to come to future events that is brilliant!
That is also a great idea about the single parents option could be onto something there. As for you doing photography at the next event that is a great idea, we could definitely talk further about that.
I'm loving the photos you took too that is fab! Quick question could we put the photos on public display so that everyone can see them? Lots of friends have been asking. Thanks Alberto, would be great to catch up with you soon anyway."
What's your take on what she's said?
E.G. What does she mean by "catching up"? Is she just being polite or is there a real interest in her seeing me (on whatever basis)?
Given that she's seeing someone, my instinct is to be very casual and respond with, "sure, call me sometime" rather than try to get her number...or is that too cautious?
BTW, we didn't speak a huge amount (maybe that was a good thing! LOL), but I asked a lot of questions to the panel (I think that scored me points).
We posed afterward for photos, plus she was a bit of a poser whenever I had the camera pointed at her. I got the impression on the day that she was impressed with me.
I've published the photos on Facebook, but I put up a message to everyone involved to say so. I just wanted some thoughts on how to interpret what she's said before I contact her again.
Incidentally, the question was raised about what the women in the audience think about guys dating multiple women and the consensus was against it...that most of them would just walk away.
