The little bit you know about me from this thread... would you want to grab a beer if all you had to do was read the text and confirm you were available?
These steps ARE scary for some people... and that's okay... I'm happy to do it. I just want to get to you know you!
I'd probably choose not to grab a beer -- unless the social cost/effort in saying no was higher than saying yes. Quite likely I'd feel put upon with having to respond in a way that I thought didn't offend you...and all by pithy text messages. What a hassle!
Totally get that's a me problem though and I'd fall into your 70%.
Thanks for the insights though -- I find the concept of friendship fascinating (if perplexing).
I told you what I’m about.
You told me your preferences.
They don’t mesh, so we both split after having spent a pleasant 90 seconds
