Let me preface this by saying I(22 yr old male) came to Loveshack a year and a half ago after a nasty break-up with my one only gf so far.

 

Since then, I've been on dates with at least 10 girls and have made out/hooked up with 10 others during that time. However, I was not ready or no girl showed enough potential to be in a relationship until a girl I've been on two dates with now.

 

I really like this girl. We had our 2nd date last night (dinner & a movie) and it was really good time. Physicality was there, holding hands, leaning against each other, putting arms around one another but still no kiss occurred.

 

Partly due to my pu$$ness and partly because I don't want to rush things-I want things to come naturally.

 

So, this is what I want to say to her this morning:

 

"Last night was really fun. I had a great time. I know you're in #blank_city for the week, but I'd like to take a break from studying this weekend and have you come over and grill lunch for us and hang by the pool. I was thinking Saturday around 1?"

 

Please feel free to give any advice. I'm open for all suggestions. I don't want to mess this one up.

After getting 0 advice from here, went ahead and sent the message anyways.

 

Got the dreaded, "Sounds really fun...I'll let you know if I can!" text.

A couple of tips:

 

- Call on the phone instead of text - it's easier to negotiate a date over the phone, and text is a poor form of communication.

 

- I would suggest taking her out instead of inviting her over to your place in the beginning.

 

- You really should go for the first kiss by date 3, otherwise her interest can wane and you can find yourself in the freindszone. The time is now. I know it's one of the biggest moves in dating/relationships, but it has to be done. No guts, no glory. Man up and do what you have to.

I usually call the girls but not with her because she specifically told me on the first date she hates talking on the phone.

1st night drinks next to a great skyline, really great date. 2nd night, dinner and a movie; very good date as well just no kiss.

I know I need to man up! Like I said I haven't felt this nervousness and this hesitation since my ex. All the others came naturally, that's how I know this is actually a real connection.

 

She said yes to coming over Saturday!

 

I wrote my comments in bold above. I think I was just over analyzing the situation, which is what I tend to normally do.

Great! It all looks fine.

Don't worry, man. Kiss her.

 

Be cool.
