I've been seeing this gal for a few weeks now. She has a daughter, a job, and goes to school. Bottom line is that there is little time for me so when I do see her I am very excited.

 

Basically our first date was a success. We both went home happy and sleepless thinking about each other. On our second date I told her I liked her and ask if we could go steady (for lack of a better term). She said yes.

 

My mistake is that each time I see her I shower her with gifts, flowers, dinner, open car doors, ect. Well this last time when I gave her more gifts she looked as if she might be a bit dissipointed and really showed no interest as to what was in the bag. I pretty much was left with feeling I might be moving a bit too fast for her.

 

I really like this woman and can envision a bright future ahead. How do I resurrect the feelings she had after the first date without playing head games? I'm a very open and honest person but feel maybe certain things should be shared at a later time.

PS I'd really like to hear some women's input. Especially input from single mothers.

I'd probably feel a bit weird if a guy I had just started dating gave me gifts every time he saw me. I have a funny thing with feeling obligated to someone and when someone that I haven't been in a relationship for a while keeps giving me gifts it makes me uncomfortable. A little something once in a while to show you care is nice, but not every single time you see her. And simple things that mean a lot are better than expensive gifts. Like a single red rose once in a while is sweet. :)

Jack, cut the crap, e.g:

You know what she wants. $$$$$$$$

 

Name a price and see what happens.
