The first 3 messages from me is really my question. I got it back on track but I feel I got lucky on this one and it could have spun off the rails super easy. Maybe over analyzing it but I have started using this style of opener a lot (I like your style + something in their pictures which are usually pets or tattoos).

Just want to make sure this is okay over larger sample size.

One more note, I can add the next screenshot but its just me saying "shoot me your number then" and her giving it to me.
