Trying Some New Material - Feedback?

[Volt]

I was chatting on Facebook with an HBlonde9, and I thought the convo was doing well until she flaked at the end. I was getting IOI's and stuff. What happened?

Volt:
Hey, me and my buddy are having a bit of a debate, and I was wondering if you could help?

12:05am: HB:
...

12:07am: Volt:
Grumpy tonight? It's about my little pony, from your pics you seem like the type.

12:08am: HB:
haha
go for it..

12:09am: Volt:
So you did play with them? Okay, did they have special powers, or were they just regular old horses?

12:10am: HB:
well. they were regular old horsees
but tehy work like pink purple
ish
but if u had a creative imagination
you made em have dope superhearo powers.

12:11am: Volt:
And I take it you're speaking from experience? Because the thing is, my sister used to play with them, and I would take my GI Joe and make him ride them and shoot Cobra commander with a fucking machine gun.
And this girl I was talking to mentioned them and I remembered this and my regular group of guy friends didn't have a clue.

12:12am: HB:
EVERYONES PLAYED WITH SOME FORM OF DOLL OR SUCH
my little pony is just 3840928 times cooler
ha .
so your friends should just man up to owning this

12:13am: Volt:
lol I feel so random... what r u doing?

12:13am: HB:
sitting in bed
on facebook andn such
kids just left my hosue

12:14am: Volt:
I'm watching Happy Feet, thanks for asking

12:14am: HB:

12:14am: Volt:

12:14am: HB:

12:15am: Volt:
I concur
I pretty much have tonight to get...
hip
with all the little kids stuff, it's like I'm cramming or somehting

12:16am: HBlonde:
hip?

12:16am: Volt:
you know, learn it.


And here the convo dies.

What happened? She was still on for the next 20 minutes! Should I have re-opened? I thought it would have came off as too needy, and not doing anything wouldn't have DLV'd. Probably not the brightest idea to test on popular HB9's, but that's me!

A shout out to Grape, who I completely ripped off

[Grape]

ahaha. =]
yeah, you showed her interest. now you just have to be C&F to raise value, not 'i'm too cool for you.'
why'd you say 'hip'?? o.O
the thing about online game is that you have to give a lot of =] faces nd appear that you're in an amazing mood she will never take down.
and say things that'll make her just burst out with laughter like "hmm.... *pause* my banana looks like my penis. just yellower"
=P C&F man, use it!!!!

[Volt]

I could have busted her on saying "dope." I thought we were saying cool in weird ways after that, I guess. C&F, got it.

[optimus]

I wouldn't go for "What are you doing right now?"

Just say what you're doing, and why. She'll either talk about what you're doing, or she'll tell you what she's doing.

Your convo died right there buddy. You completely stopped your own momentum in its tracks and actually stacked backwards. Don't get me wrong, fluff talk is all fine and dandy, but you went back to it way too early. You had all this energy and you called you on her shit and then suddenly......you just became bored and hence, boring to her. She'll follow whatever mood you're in, even on facebook lol. When you do go to fluff talk, still use lots of smilies and shit.

Finally, be decisive. No one likes, "...sooo...hows it going?"

A better alternative would be, "So what kind of exciting shit are you up to right now? "
