I met this girl in a cold open - she was very receptive and very willing to provide her number. Her schedule is terrible and she just got a 2nd job, so it's going to be hard to get her out. One key thing I've learned in reviewing the lessons is that you have to get the girl to invest in the conversation. I do not know how to do this. Using this conversation, what are ways I can get her to invest. She barely responds (maybe lack of interest or could be working 2 jobs) and my baiting test ("I know what you're ready for") seems to not engage. What are other things I can test? (MONDAY) Her: Hey it's Ashley Me: You're shy at first but when you feel connected you open Her: That's definitely me š Me: Yes.. what's your schedule like this week? Her: I have a Zoom job interview in two days but that's about it Her: Hopefully starting my 2nd job this week Me: Feeling spontaneous? Her: Depends on your definition of spontaneous Me: You, me, laughing, and a nostalgic view Her: Ohhh I love the sound of that Me: Cool, let's meet at the view at 10p Her: I work nights and my shift starts at 10 Me: Life is hard Her: It can be (THURSDAY) Me: It's Thursday Her: Hey sir happy Thursday Me: Get the job? Her: Find out today Me: You should have told them you were a inside joke Her: I GOT THE JOB Me: We should celebrate when I return Her: Most definitely should (MONDAY) Me: I know what you're ready for

Thanks; I did forget to add on the first day of texting (Monday), we had already discussed meeting in person one day that week, so without that context it does seem like a jump to get her schedule without knowing if she was open to meet that week or if it had been discussed.
I have watched your video about 4 examples of cold open text game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XO5T8MtuL_Q). On soft closes, are these examples of soft closes:

Yes, those are examples of soft closing. But, they are the prelude to a soft close. A soft close isn't necessarily one line. It can be multiple texts. I'll do that sometimes to really make the close extra smooth as you saw in that video
