 met a cool girl

Until last night, I hadn't played music in public since last fall. These sorts of things are prone to happen when involved in a relationship. Now that the strings are cut and it's summer, it's either hang out at coffeeshop open mics or have no social life at all. The loneliness fucks with me if I let it, so in the interest of my continued sanity I've been going to open mics like I used to, but not necessarily to perform. I try to be easy on myself and not force myself to play. But last night I wanted to play, and I played. It was nice.
Other than me, there was one other dude and a girl signed up. The night was slow, because I live in Hillbilly Central, where no one wants to see a bunch of damned liberal hippies (such as myself I suppose) sing kum ba yah on the gee-tar. Well, hillbillys be damned! The night reaped dividends! Oh, and the caffiene!
The other dude that played liked my set, but that's only natural because I'm the shit. His set was...but this post isn't about him, it's about this cool girl I met. Damn, did I meet a cool girl.
She was the other person, besides me and the dude (not Lebowski, he had a chest cold), was this girl who played classical guitar. She walked in just a few moments before her turn. I was still onstage killing some time because the coffeeshop people asked me to. Perhaps it would be an overstatement to say she was hot, but she was damned cute, that is, nothing apparently fucked up about her. Not that I was paying much attention to her physically, because at this point I'm more interested in meeting a like mind than a perfect face/body.
This girl gets onstage and plays classical guitar. Classical, as in an adjective form of the word "class". Around here it seems all the women are just cheap sluts and hos, but this girl has class. Her playing was competent but not extraordinary, but she was obviously into it. Then she busts out some originals, and she has all these contemplative melody lines and her lyrics were moving. Here I reiterate that I am indeed the shit, but I found myself wondering how I would follow this girl. She mesmerized me.
I got onstage again after her, inspired and freshly caffeinated, and I played just for her. She was the only person in the room I was interested in impressing, and it would seem as though she was impressed. Normally I am kinda introverted, but I surprised myself by sitting down next to her after I finished playing and starting a conversation. It was one of those convos that make you glad to be alive.
She's a guitar major, goes to the same school I do, and she is not only a student but also a teacher. Not some music teacher at a shitty elementary school, mind you. Oh no no no. She gives private lessons. She thinks I should switch my major to guitar because that's how good I am, and she gave me a business card in case I want to take lessons, or if I want somebody to play with  .
Hmmm...so does that count as "getting digits", as it were? I'm going to go ahead and say it does.
I'm thinking of waiting a while, maybe until I see her again at another open mic (highly likely), and taking her up on those lessons. But instead of paying for lessons with cash, I could take her out to Olive Garden or some shit. She might be down with that, who knows?
In any case, private lessons with an attractive, intelligent, apparently single female, and did I mention she plays classical guitar? I hope I'm not building a bunch of somethings out of nothing, but how could I possibly strike out at this point? She wants it. She knows she does.
I can't stop thinking about her, I'm so infatuated. Me heart it say boom boom.
--------------------
No; truth, being alive, was not halfway between anything. It was only to be found by continuous excursions into either realm, and though proportion is the final secret, to espouse it at the outset is to insure sterility.
Only connect...

Go for it, bro. Whatever feels natural, just fucking do it. Stop with all the games and cut through all the bullshit. Be real about everything and you'll get what you want if you're meant to.

You play guitar, she plays guitar. You talked and she was nice to you. Go for it. Let her know your interested right away. Girls like assertiveness.

Totally. Last girl I met was into me but I wasn't into her. That hasn't happened to me before.. I'd usually take what I could get but.. she just didn't do it for me. Not my kind of personality!

It's never 'settling'. It's taking a chance. You get two things; success, or failure. But you never walk away with nothing.
Roll the dice, spin the wheel...

To all the people who replied. After reading the OP post, he was stating a nice short story, that didn't require a resonse. He didn't ask for a response.
He just merely told his story to the world.
So for all of you who gave "advice", he didn't ask for it.

Dude this response is why people hate other people on here. .
What are you his fucking biographer? How do you know what he wanted? Did the magic 8 ball lead you to this reasoning? I want to know..Really...
