Alright so here's my little dilemma. I'm in the works of starting an LTR with this girl, she's basically just waiting for me to make it official. She asked around 9pm last night if she could come over to which I said yes. We ended up laying around together for the majority of it and she revealed some really heavy feelings she had for me, even made marriage references and desires to be with me for quite a while. She even voiced that she was a bit insecure because she never knows exactly what I'm thinking or how I'm feeling about her. Immediately, I knew not to resort back to my old afc ways of reassuring her that she was my 'always and forever.' Yet I couldn't squash the urge entirely as I felt at this stage it's important that she knows I care for her. Well she ended up staying until about 4am and in that time (which was wayyy too long together inside the apartment) I feel I divulged a little too much information about how I was feeling. All indications say her interest level is still very high, but today I just had an instinctive feeling that I had successfully chipped away at some of the mystery and excitement that I had so painstakingly worked to keep. I don't feel as powerful or as in control as I did the day before.
Now we have plans to go to church together and play laser tag tomorrow, which I will follow through with. But after that I plan to be a bit more cold and distant, and withdraw myself a little in an attempt to ensure that she is still chasing me as much as she once was.
What do you guys think of this strategy? I have a desire to pursue an LTR with her so I think it's important (at least in the early stages) that I keep the attraction alive by making sure she's always just a little bit unsure of how I feel about her. How exactly can I go about this?
