Here are a couple of examples of SMS Jedi mind tricks that back-fired a bit.
1. Me
Getting filthy SMS messages for a couple of weeks, from a girl you’ve never met, then asking her age: 40. Reeeeeto!
2. A mate
Initial phone number collection at The Roast on a Sunday in Wan Chai, slightly inebriated. Subsequent meeting for recruitment interview on another Sunday at mate’s apartment. Sober. Turned out she was not the best. “Kodak moments though mate.”
“Well that’s backfired”

Shaky, bit surprised by comment re your SMS convo with the older woman. I thought you might be into “The Graduate” scene, especially if the convo was as filthy as you suggested. Being over 40 doesn’t mean you aren’t up for some filth action, it means you have some different experiences to share.
I was just suprised. Doesn’t mean I won’t meet her for some teamwork ….
