In my experience, making her wait doesn't work well at all. About the only time it works is when you are several leagues above her and you can tell she is really into you, and there has to be some sort of social circle dynamic involved too. By that I mean that you can't just see a hot girl on the street, approach her, go on a date with her, and then make her wait. Same goes for if you use a dating app or meet at a bar or something. Because in those situations, it's more than obvious why you are interacting with her, even if you are being indirect about it. The only exception to this is if the woman you meet has something major in common with you in which case you can pull her into the scenario I will describe in the next paragraph.
On the other hand, if you have a big social circle - let's say you play a hobby co-ed sport like volleyball or ultimate frisbee or something like that, and there is a girl in the circle you want to bang, you can make her wait because you have a genuine reason for having a platonic relationship with her: Your shared interest. You can be "bros". Without that, making her wait will make her think you are gay or make her feel rejected and will cause her to run and not give you another chance. I found this out the hard way after my divorce before I found the red pill. My blue pill brain washing had me in this mindset of moving very slow with women. I missed out on some great opportunities and looking back I fvcking cringe so hard at a few of the women where were initiating touch with me on dates - touching my leg, etc. Really hot ones too.... and there I was acting like their fvcking gay friend. It's the kind of thing that keeps you up at night these days.
There are two girls in my social circle who are single and who I know are interested in me. Neither of them are that attractive to me but I've picked up on their hints and their flirting and compliments. Just for fun, I like to mess with them by getting in their personal space to set something down or throw something in the garbage or grab a drink, etc. It's so fun to watch how nervous and excited it makes them. This is the kind of scenario where making them wait would work. If I were actually attracted to them, I could keep that stuff up but dial it up a bit by inviting them to more parties, group trips, get-togethers, etc, and give them even more attention, but not make an actual move until I saw they were going absolutely crazy.
