How to break the ice... ?

I asked before but I decided to take time away and keep moving.

I got a distinct feeling this girl I liked was avoiding me. Either she's a bit superficial because of my disability (not who I thought she was) or my general lack of confidence put her off. I was that way because I worry what people think of me.

A fire was lit under my a$$ and I'm a totally different person today. Getting exercise has been a monumental feat. Before I couldn't walk 100 yards without fear of falling over, not I can do a couple miles for the heck of it. I'm doing activities I only dreamed of before. It's the greatest feeling of accomplishment. It only helps my confidence, feeling capable, doing anything I set me mind to.

A few times over the last couple weeks while driving off campus, I've spotted her alone, seemingly on her coffee break. I wonder how she's been.

I resolved myself to sending her an email. We communicated via social networking in the past which I stopped using last summer. I'll keep it short. A friendly bridge of sorts.

What's a good simple question to break the ice? I'd rather propose coffee if she get's back to me.

I think I know what PUNKEY will say.

@whbrill,
Hi!

It's been a while. I was wondering if we could get coffee and catch up a bit.


Write that. ^

@jespah,
I keep putting it off. Okay... So skipping the banter is the better approach?

@whbrill,
Save the banter for when you see her. Otherwise, you'll just sip your coffee and stare at her.

I'd try a stick or two of dynamite. Surprised

@whbrill,
I don't think I understand what it is you're wanting us to understand.

That or I could if I wanted but I can't due to lack of sleep.

Maybe I'll re read this later.
