So true...I even have a recent example to back it up.
Cute girl in my bedroom, after the first date....we're watching my band on youtube....I'm kinoing, she's receptive...then I ASK if I can kiss her (weak I know, but I wasn't thinking). She says, 'its too early' and gets up to leave....I say "I'll see you again though, right?" To which she replies "Sure."
Needless to say, we haven't done anything to this day.
I'm usually decent at closing, but I read this one wrong....I think I wasn't more agressive because I really liked her.
Anyway, the point is, the whole relationship dynamic changed from ME in control to HER in control from then on....and girls need a challenge.
Don't make the same mistake. I know i won't do it again.
