| Short version:
Girl is (was?) really into me, initiating lots of kino on our 2nd and 3rd date. We fooled around at her place at the end of the 3rd date, I was down to my boxers but not hard due to nerves, and she made a comment about it (suggesting she had wanted to be fucked, but now thought I wasn’t really into her), and soon after asked me to leave.
Now she’s flaking on our plans. I need some insight on how to recover, get her back in the sack, and ideally advice on not letting nerves spoil a hardon (or letting a lack of a hardon lose me the girl).
Long version:
We meet over OKC. First date (coffee + wine bar on Mon 4/23) has great energy. Second date (different coffee + wine bar + bookstore on Fri 4/27) also great energy, and she’s actually initiating more kino than I am (grasping my hand or arm, kissing etc.), complimenting me, apologetic of herself, etc.
Third date (horse riding + ouutdoor wine tasting, Sun 4/29) is similar; lots of kino and compliments from her, especially when she gets tipsy from the wine. She’s coming down sick with strep throat. I know for a fact it’s not BS b/c I gave it to her on our 2nd date, which I don’t think she knows. (I wasn’t planning to kiss her on that date but she kissed me). B/c she’s very sick, tired, and tipsy, I drive her back earlier than planned, but we fool around at her place. Because of her state I’m not really intending to push for the f-close. She’s very receptive to being kissed, touched, and she gets very frisky when we dry hump.
After a bit of this, she’s topless and I’m down to boxers. I whisper for her to ‘take me in your mouth’ but she ignores it. She rolls face down and murmurs, ‘Maybe you just don’t like me like that’. I ask what she means, and she says, ‘Well, you’re not hard...maybe your heart is trying to tell your body something.’
(I was hard when we started dry humping, but am not currently.) I think to myself ‘CRAP! she wanted to be fucked! I just missed my chance’. But in that mental state, I can’t suddenly get myself hard. I reply (trying to sound casual, not frustrated, it’s no big deal) ‘I like you a lot; I’m just a little nervous’ and then ‘since you’re sick I was concerned and distracted’. She replies, ‘I like you a lot too. Maybe we’ll just keep things more relaxed.”
I go to the restroom, when I come back out she’s dressed, and she lets me kiss her. I’m hoping to reinitiate and get to sex, but she politely but dismissively says she needs to nap, bye, I had a nice time, etc. I can tell it’s one of those ‘literally true brushoffs’: he’s genuinely very tired due to sickness + wine, but all the same I may’ve ‘blown it’. I ask her about hanging out next weekend and she says yes, and sounds genuine.
Monday I call; she’s friendly on the phone and says she got some antibiotics. She asks if I still want to hang out next weekend (good sign!) and I say yeah, and we’ll see how she’s feeling and if she’s better.
Wednesday I text about bringing her some chicken soup that night. she says she has plans. (I think ‘CRAP! I figured if anything she was still sick; is it a date?’) I text back ‘Move ‘em if you can. Either way, Saturday at noon.’
No text reply. Thursday I call, she says she has plans for midday Saturday but when I suggest Saturday at 6, she accepts.
Then Friday morning, she texts
“ Hey sorry was distracted yesterday. I'm gonna hang out at my Uncle's most of this weekend. Kinda want to get out of dodge for a bit. Could we get together for a drink some evening next week?”
So now I’m pretty pissed. She’s flaking; I’m worried I’ve blown my chance by not fucking her last Sunday and offending her by not being hard, or if she’s pulling back because my recent communications have sounded too ‘booty call - ish’.
Reading between the lines of ‘get together for a drink’ says to me that she doesn’t want me to come to her place for our next date, i.e. she wants it to be nonsexual, and she might just be planning to meet to tell me Let’s Just Be Friends or she doesn’t want to keep seeing each other. (Girls.)
My questions:
1. How do I recover? Should I accept her ‘meet for a drink’ plans or should I give her some radio silence?
2. What goes through a girl’s head when you’re not hard while fooling around? Do they think you’re not man enough for them. That they’re not woman enough for you? How do I handle it when explicitly called out on it? (My sense is I regret the ‘I like you a lot’ line; sounds beta and like I think she’s too good for me, am intimidated by her looks, etc. and I should’ve just said ‘I was concerned and distracted b/c you’re sick’. )
3. I’m worried that even if we do fool around again, which is where I want to get to, I’ll have nerves due to the last incident, and it’ll become a self fulfilling prophecy of not getting it up. I know I’m biologically fine, since there’s another girl I fucked for 3 hours and gave a bunch of orgasms to last weekend. I’d love some advice on staying ‘in the zone’ and hard etc.
