Regardless of how fast or slow you wish to escalate, you still need to show your physical interest. Woman at any age, need and want to know they are physically desired. Holding this back can certainly hurt your progress. It's completely natural for a man to want a woman sexually. It's in our DNA. What isn't natural is a man not showing this interest. Every woman expects a man to want in her pants.

How long it takes can always be dictated by her personal set of standards but not showing this interest immediately is a sure way to fall into a friends zone. You need to state your interest and go from there. Be flirtatious always, if she's into you, you'd be surprised how well she will respond. then keep escalating till you find the boundaries of her comfort zone, then stay within that zone.

Even the most virtuous of women will ask "what the hell is wrong with this guy, he hasn't made a move or even flirted with me" Is it me? Is it him? whats wrong here.

Dont be that guy. Sexual desire is as natural as breathing.
