This is a pretty clear cut example of buyer's remorse setting in. She wanted to have sex with you and she did. She moved so fast into seduction that you didn't get a lot of comfort built early on. You continued in seduction for a while again without making her really comfortable with who you are and knowing more about you. Eventually she realized I'm having sex with this guy and I barely know him. She became uncomfortable with her anti-slut defense kicking in.
You go out of your way to text, call, and spend time with her while not having sex to establish comfort. She tells you she is being smothered... This kind of kills our ability to go back in and really fix early on mistake.
I can understand you want it to go back to just having sex but it won't until she learns more about you and gets more comfortable with the situation. At present her wanting time alone she's trying to decide what to do about you and how it's going to affect things around the office. She'll either give you the opportunity to keep seeing her, friend you (Cause she wants more comfort), or she'll cut you off entirely.
At this point the ball is really in her court. You'll just have to see what she says when you next meet up.
Thanks for the response man, I agree that it is defo buyers remorse. To be honest, I don't want to go back to just having sex but wanna get back to having fun and forget the heavy talk/seriousness but since the siutation has now arisen I have to deal with it somehow.....evn if it's dong nothing.
I was thinking of flaking but to be honest, I know this could work in terms of DHV but I reckon i can DHV and still meet her. What I'm thinking is that I need to break down the buyers remorse systematically. So between now and tmr, I'm gonna try and list all the possible reasons she's freaked out and then think of ways of destroying those ideas.
I think her meeting her ex is one of the major issues but I have an ace up my sleeve in that I still live with my ex so if i allude to the fact that I still have feelings for my ex but that I've realised I need to move on and live life for me, I think this will remind her of why she broke up with him in the 1st place plus it will also imply that we are on the same level. I honestly do feel guilty that my ex is seeing me going out with next chicks as we were together for 6 years. Still deciding whether I should say this or not but I think this could work seeing as if I drop it as I have all these mixed emotions then that will show connection.
The other major issue is obviously that we've had quite a lot of sex but I didn't build comfort enough therefore, I think it might be a good idea to make her feel special whilst still maybe doing some push/pull DHV. At the end of the day the situation is what it is therefore some stuff has to be dealt with head-on but obviously not making things too serious.
I think the fact she suggested going for a drink maybe important as she sent the first tx saying she needed space and then sent, let's go for a drink and proper chat on fri. So i'm figuring she sent the 1st text saying she needed space but then realised that could be the end of things and so sent the 2nd text. Therfore, I do think there is a chance but I need to be at peak performance........
Also, I guess I probably need to decide whether I want to take this all the way as if not then it's not worth the effort. I do think telling her that if she's "not into me anymore then to tell me as I will and can move on" maybe a good thing to do as it DLV's but then DHVs.
Her being scared of getting hurt is another thing that needs to be dealt with. I think in this particular situation, the best way to deal with that is ironically to display some DLV and show that I do have a sensitive side, I'm toying with telling her some really deep stuff about me......from my childhood and how it's made me who I am today. I'm reckoning that this way, she's seen the c&f side, the alpha side (particularly in the bedroom) so i've found that msot chicks do dig guys that can emotionally connect but it just needs to be done in a non-needy way hence by DLV about a personal experience rather than just trying to understand her problems (which could come across as trying too hard) might work better.
Finally, I think the most important thing is that whilst there will have to be some kinda serious conversation, to try and make the whole thing fun so that she remembers that being with me is fun and that she does enjoy it. Afterall, I must have made her orgasm at least 10-15 times during the 5 times we've had sex so she'll defo remember that.......maybe that explains the lets go for a drink.........she does wanna give it a chance but she's scared. But yeah, my final thought is to keep any sex-talk to a minimum, that doesn't mean not trying to build comfort and attraction but clearly if she's feeling the anti-slut thing then I probably should steer clear of any overly sexual talk........well in the beginning anyway and then just see how things go.
I guess the balance now is to DHV myself whilst on the other hand giving her some props too......
what you guys think? long shot but I reckon it's worth a go and beats sitting at home thinking about it! I'll be honest, I do like her quite a lot but this will probably be my one and only attempt to overcome the situation.......unless progress is made in which case obviously i'll continue.
