28YO HB7 matched on Tinder a few days ago. A quick back and forth exchange of 2-3 messages, before asking her to meet up.
"...You seem pretty cool. I'm heading to the gym soon, but I'm free later today. Grab a quick coffee or drink with me later"
Dude.
you nailed it with the "you seem cool, let's meet up." But you flopped it when you made it a coffee date.
Quote:
We met at Starbucks for coffee.
Ugh. Nothing is hotter than a clinically corporate building with machines running in the background and elderly couples scarfing down baked goods.
Quote:
We sat across from each other inside at a table.
This is why you ask a woman for a drink at a BAR and sit net to her on a stool at the bar. You're cockblocking yourself with coffee dates.
Quote:
Conversation began with talking about our daily lives, schedules, why I chose the career I chose.
Eh. This date sounds like you exchanged wikipedia pages.
Quote:
Unfortunately as the conversation unfolded, talking about where I am from (I currently live in midwest, but am from Florida), took a turn to discussing family. At this point upon reflection I feel the conversation became very predictable, and less fun. I feel like I should have redirected the conversation towards more fun and exciting things, such as asking about hobbies, things she likes to do, or telling her about some of my interests.
how about fucking NONE of that?
You (looking her in the eyes and grinning): I have to be honest, if we went to my place, I'd make a move right away.
This will either make her laugh and thus horny, or she won't be up for it quite yet. Either way
it's not boring.
I talk about using shocking honesty a lot on this forum. It is one of the best tools in the toolbox, because it's does several things at once, instantly:
1. shocking honesty is never boring.
2. it displays playfulness.
3. It usually contains sexual innuendo, thus sexualizing the conversation..
4. It's congruent with your desires.
5. Brazen behavior is dominant behavior.

I should have probably worked in reaching across and touching, or holding her hand across the table early on.
No, that's awkward as fuck. you aren't even vibing yet, and the conversation is stale.
Quote:
I have been able to seemlessly weave that into the context of the conversation most of the time in previous dates.
No, you need to stop the nice guy bullshit conversations, and just speak your mind during dates.
For example, if a hot barista or server walks past, I'll ask my date if the server is "hot or not?" and turn it into a game, which instantly turns things more playful and sexual.
This is shocking honesty. This is being congruent.

I've had success at getting a lay when meeting a girl from tinder at the same starbucks. So I though the move was to change the scenery. So it didn't feel like we were interviewing each other. So I suggested we go walk around (Starbucks is part of a mini outdoor mall like area). I was hoping this could inject more energy into things, and perhaps steer the conversation to something more exciting.
Excitement and energy come from within YOU.
Quote:
Also since I didn't reach for her hand, I thought it would be easier to grab her hand to hold it while we were walking. At first I was on her right, but her purse was on that side. So I made a quick move to throw away my coffee cup in the trashcan, and repositioned myself on her left side, however she was holding her coffee cup in her left hand. I tested out some around the shoulder hugging and minor touching as it came natural in our conversation. There didn't appear to be any resistance, but she also didn't lean into me during those instances.
Jesus christ what is all this talking about coffee cups and trash cans?
What the fuck?
Just go for the kiss like a dominant male. If she rejects you, no big deal. At least you acted like a man, and not some bitch calculating trash can to coffee cup trajectories and spatial data.
Quote:
The conversation still remained on family, her job/my job, her kids.
UGH.
Quote:
She checked her phone on average about once every 15 minutes during out 1.5 hour long meetup.
1.5 hours?
WTF?
Quote:
Although I didn't feel like I had enough positive IOIs to try to pull her to my apartment, I was still considering going for it. I figured she could still agree or in very least it would cause her to shit test me, for which I had planned on being calm, alpha, and collected and breaking through, which may lead to her becoming sexually interested. I took a quick glance at my watch, that she didnt notice, it was around 1:55pm. I admit I hesitated a good 15-20 minutes by not asking her back to my place. The conversation was mutual still, and I was hoping to try to turn it into something more fun, before going for the kill.
You must like talking more than sex!
Quote:
I held her waist, and looked into her eyes, and moved my face ever so slightly closer to hers. Not hugely obvious or over done, but enough to communicate with my body language I wanted a kiss.
Your job, as the dominant man is to not hint you want a kiss, it's to go for a kiss.
Very feminine behavior.
Quote:
She said "No kiss on the first date!", I laughed it off, but, I could have probably done a better job holding frame. I'm sure I did subcommunicate a hesitation, or momentary lapse in frame.
Yep. Weak game.
Quote:
I waited about 40 minutes, I reasoned I don't want to respond too quickly, but I also don't want to take so long, that she may assume I am a little bitch beta male who has run away with his tail between his legs. I simply said "XXX-XXX-XXXX shoot me a text so I have your number also". I didn't say nice to meet you, or look forward to next time. I figured that was too beta.
40 minutes?
lol.
your date, and your needy reach out after the date are classic beta. ESPECIALLY the half-ass kiss attempt.
"Shoot me a text so I have your number also".
Ugh. Isn't that already implied?
