A spice for that first phone call...

Here's a stock line that I use during the first offline phone call.

This comes just before you mention meeting up.

"You seem pretty normal..."

The good thing about this line? It deflates a lot of tension. (How do I know? Women almost always have a relieved laugh after I say it.)

You're not making a meet-up look like a big deal. You're just a social guy. She doesn't seem like a freak. It's just a way of getting to know each other a little better.

Simple, but effective.
