How to text someone you just met

Try this

Hey! It was really good talking to you last night — you were right about that band, I fell down a whole rabbit hole. What else have you been holding out on me?

The key: Reference the actual moment you shared and hand them an open thread. Specific + a little playful beats "hey, it's [name] from last night" every time.
