Alright, so I've thrown myself out there on OKCupid for the last 7 months or so, figured why not. So far all of my bites have been real meh (chubs, borings, single moms) but finally got a decent tonight. So naturally, the AFC section of my brain is paranoid about fucking it up.
So a couple weeks ago, this 29 y/o HB9 hits me up, some Russian girl moved to Brooklyn 4 years ago to get her PhD in Psychology, and just got a job at the VA in my area counseling vets. While that's my career path as well, I figure there's gotta be some catch with this chick (photo master, batshit crazy, etc) but lo and behold she's pretty damn awesome so far. Let me walk ya through it...
I text invite her to coffee in the VA town after she gets out of work. She confirms the time. I show up today, but she's already went home (20 minutes away) saying she wasn't sure we were meeting b/c I didn't confirm. I tell her I'm heading back to my town (40 minutes, other direction) and she can swing by if she wants. Then she suggests just picking her up at home and we can get coffee in her town. I hesitantly agree - I mean, fuck it, already drove 40 whats another 20? Plus, you can get a lot of info on a girl by scoping out her domicile. When I get to her place, lo and behold her MOTHER greets me at the door - heavy russian accent too. I'm already like "oh man here we go" but then the girl comes out and my jaw almost drops - she looks even better than her pictures! I drive her to a nearby coffee shop, and the whole time conversation just flows smooth as hell. I'm constantly making her laugh, qualifying, and working in what kino I can. We spend nearly two hours at the coffee shop, then it starts getting loud so I suggest we high tail it. We actually walk in the completely wrong direction for almost five minutes before I realize it, just talking away.
After getting in the car, she asks me to take her home (~9pm) quoting that she goes to bed early on days she works. As I'm dropping her off, she asks me to walk her to the door, then invites me in for a bit. Mind you, this is a two bedroom one story flat and BOTH OF HER PARENTS are there. They must have been about 70. SUPER freaking nice, though. She shows me her bedroom, I get a little more kino in, but I can't tell if I've got the green light, aside from the fact I avoid end-of-date-kclose-cliche's like the plague now. Not to mention, I'm totally weirded out escalating much with her freakin parents there. She had told me earlier in the date that THEY lived with HER - believable, all things considered - and she's buying her own house next month anyways. But still. The whole thing totally mindfucked me. If they hadn't been there, different story. A HB8+ invites me into her place late at night, you better believe I'm escalating, or at least trying. But I couldn't help but think with her IOIs and body language she was trying to set me up for it... I doubt I blew it, but I believe in the ladder, and I barely had a chance to touch that thing in the course of a two hour coffee date and car ride. So the night ended with a big hug (she even complimented me on it, ha) and a talk to ya later. No contact since, but I had plans to rush off to. I'm a busy guy, after all
I'm finally used to college game, but this is almost like... normal game. So what do you think, should I have just gone for it? Definitely did NOT expect a 29 y/o doctor to live with her parents, but it seems she is the one supporting them. But it totally threw me off. Otherwise, I think the date overall went really well. Regardless, what's my next move? I was considering inviting her to my town tomorrow (she said she stays up later on Saturdays - up to 2am) as my pad is fucking primo for this sort of thing. Either that, or wait til a later day. I think I know better than to bring up any awkward text conversation, next contact will be calling this girl regardless. Next step is isolate escalate, I'm just hoping I didn't come off as too much of a pussy/beta for not doing it already.
