He met this girl on Hinge. She liked his photo first and he got her number. They discussed the best types of wine and the girl mentioned it would only be weird if he loved Rosé. Voice messages were recommended during the Hinge interaction as they build a more intimate vibe, making you seem more real than just letters on a screen. The aim of the whatsapp conversation was to vibe, tell her about himself and find out things about her while moving towards the in-person meet up.
 Hey Anna I like your style 👌
Student
 Hey, I like yours too 👍 and nice hair!
Her
 Thanks, I wonder how well our styles would mix
Student
 It could work
Her
 You don’t sound confident
Student
 That’s the problem with messages, can’t tell how something is meant to come across
Her
 This message is a good excuse to send a voice message. Voice messages are useful because they can humanize you. It is likely the girl is getting a lot of messages on dating apps and other messages but sending voice messages can set you apart from the crowd by doing something most men don’t and by making you more real, not just words on a screen.

assistant
 (Sent as a voice message) So I’m not a fan of voice notes but I guess I led myself into that. What were you thinking for the first date?
Her
 This message is good to use when talking about what will happen on the date. It shows the girl that you are emotionally mature as you want to vibe and build chemistry before anything happens but there is a sexual undertone and there is no ambiguity about it being a date when you mention teases and neck kisses.
I was thinking you, me, a bottle of wine, laughs, teases, neck kisses, that sort of thing. Vibing and building chemistry
assistant
 Sounds like a lovely evening 
Her
 I could get on board with that
Her
 Shoot me your number and we’ll organize it 
Student
 Wait, are you a red or white girl first?
Student
 That cannot be a dealbreaker
Her
 Unless you drink rose
Her
 (Gives her phone number)
Her
 Messaged
Student
 Hey Anna, it’s Alfie from the thing
Student
 Don’t worry, not a rosè drinker
Student
 oh that thing
Her
 I didn’t think you would be, I bet you’re a red wine drinker though
Her
 How’s your day been?
Her
 This message implies a level of familiarity and closeness between the girl and the student.
I am a red wine drinker, you know me so well already lol
assistant
 Day has been great, been at uni, then gym, currently making dinner, you?
Student
 lol Classy
Her
 That’s very positive for a Tuesday. What do you do at uni?
Her
 Just been working, going to to the gym soon
Her
 I’m a classy guy haha
Student
 Getting my teaching qualification. What do you do?
Student
 I’m sure you are 👀
Her
 Ooh okay, when will you finish? I’m a doctor. Wish I was still at uni 😢
Her
 This message seeds the date again after setting it up on Hinge.
You’ll find out soon enough ;)
assistant
 finish in july. It’s been a stressful few weeks, can’t wait for the easter holidays lol 
Student
 This message is a slight exaggeration but pays her a compliment in a more lighthearted way.
a doctor? You out here saving lives
assistant
 When will that be then? 😉 why has it been stressful have you had deadlines? Easter holidays lol I remember those 😭 do you get two weeks off? Haha yes, except when we’re on strike
Her
 This is a very simple message that begins arranging the date. 
Depends, what’s your schedule like?
assistant
 Deadlines, placement, kids attacking me, yanno the usual stuff. Yeah a couple of weeks but it’s going to be full of essay writing.
Student
 This message seeds the date. 
You’ll have to tell me more about that on our date
assistant
 Potentially free this weekend, then I have quite a bit of free time next thursday onwards, what about you? Sounds fun, how old are the kids, are they putting you in your place… ah, well i have an exam coming up, maybe we could have a productive time together
Her
 This message calls out the fact that the girl is being unclear with her intentions. If this kind of thing is called out, you may find a genuine reason for her apprehension in meeting up or just a scheduling issue that can be overcome. 
Potentially?
assistant
 Kids are year 3-6. They try lol but it’s always the small ones you can lift with one finger that act all hard
Student
 Woman of mystery. When are you free? Well I hope you’re not lifting kids when you’re on placement lol
Her
 Free maybe saturday & sunday eve this weekend. No lol not about to start wrestling kids 
Student
 Okay, Thursday is probably best for me but that might be too long for you to wait… I could be tempted by this weekend, busy Friday night and Saturday day currently
Her
 We could do saturday night
Student
 Where would you fancy going?
Her
 This message baby steps towards the close. You should allow the girl to say yes to each step individually to minimize flaking.
Ever been to (name of venue)?
assistant
 Yeah, only sat outside for drinks though
Her
 it’s nice there, good wine
Student
 Sounds good to me, could go there or anywhere in town. Do you live in the center? I’m busy until about 6, could probably make it into town for 7
Her
 Sounds good, shall we say 7:30? Living in Prestwich atm. You?
Student
 Yeah should be ok! Staylybridge if you know where that is lol
Her
 Great
Student
 I know the name, think i played football there a few times
Student
 I didn’t think you looked like the type to play football 😅
Her
 You doing anything today?
Her
 This sort of message can imply that there is more to you than meets the eye. It can make her more excited to meet you in person.
I’m full of surprises 😉
assistant
 Got to the gym this morning but just having a chill day before some very intense essay writing starting monday. You?
Student
 Ahah, better make the most of this weekend then… so I’m currently at the theater lol it’s on for longer than I expected, can we meet at 8 instead?
Her
 Nice, you’ll have to tell me about it later. 8 works for me
Student
 cool, I’ll be getting the train to town, gets in at 7:55, wanna meet somewhere near there?
Her
 That’s fine, can meet at the station and walk over to the venue
Student
 see ya soon
Her
 see you soon
Student
 off the train now where shall I walk to?
Her
 Uber dropping me off outside the station in 5 mins
Student
 okay I’ll wait inside
Her
 This is a good message to send to the girl the day after a date to reopen, start conversation and move towards the next date. 
Hey (her name) last night was fun
assistant
 Hey (student’s name) yeah i really enjoyed it, even if you did persuade me to let you come back to mine
Her
 This message contains some callback humor to the date and suggests meeting up for a second date.
Not sure I had to persuade you 😉 we should get together again sometime soon
assistant
 Well I tried to play it cool 👀 we should, maybe over the weekend?
Her
 This message moves into the logistics of setting up the date.
Let’s do it, is there a day that works best for you?
assistant
 Not the saturday night but pretty much free otherwise, when’s good for you? You said you might be seeing family?
Her
 Actually I could do the saturday so yeah any time really from thursday onwards
Her
 Yeah I don’t think I’m going to see family, need to focus on work so don’t want to take 3 days off that. Shall we do friday?
Student
 Yeah 3 days is a lot to commit lol. Friday is good with me 😊 have you got anything in mind?
Her
 Great, shall we go for some food
Student
 Yes please, town again or? Prestwich? Stayleybridge?
Her
 This message is a slight tease, implying that she wants to impress the student on their next date. 
I was going to say town again or is there somewhere you’re dying to show me in Stalybridge? 😉
assistant
 Well there are many hidden gems, maybe one day 😉 let’s do town
Her
 How was day one of productivity?
Her
 I’ll hold you to that 😉 I’ll show you some gems in Prestwich in return. Let’s do town this time then
Student
 So tell me, are you actually a doctor?
Her
 I’m in school studying to be one.. Soon enough
Student
 Is that you’re dream job?
Her
 It is, what about you’re dream job ?
Student
 To be a painter in Italy, but that will probably never happen so i’m looking for a graphic design job haha
Her
That is a dream, I could be your muse
assistant
 hahaha sure you can
Her
I’ll expect my first portrait on our date
assistant
 hahah and when is our first date?
Her
 When are you typically free?
Student
 Saturday should work
Her
 Great, shoot me your number and we’ll sort it out.
Student
