Everything I read previously encourages me to be assertive with touching. Of course, you monitor her reaction to it and pull back if needed before trying again later, but I just read in in Doc Love's material where he suggests you don't touch at all. DL says to wait for her to start touching you and then don't reciprocate. Oddly, he mentions nothing in his material about going for the kiss or when it's actually ok to start touching them back and this makes no sense to me.
I have been practicing being more assertive with physical touching and kissing with surprisingly good results - I think - (in the past I avoided touching until it was either too late or totally obvious she wanted it and I lost more than a couple dates who told me they felt "friend vibes only"). Lately, when things are going well on a date, I often initiate the first kiss in the middle of the date by gently grabbing her chin, turning her to face me and kissing her when I sense the timing is right and she has been responsive to my other physical advances. I haven't been rejected once doing this (yet). But according to DL, that would be displaying too much interest and not being enough of a challenge.
I know there is no magic formula or system, but DL's advice seems to be completely contrary to all the other stuff I have read so I'm curious if anyone actually has success with what DL proposes, and if so, when they actually do start touching or kissing. Thanks.
