I'm working on this girl, who's a total dime. Hung out in person twice so far. LOTS of Kino, IOIs, and playful flirting.

Now I'm the kind of guy that works a lot off IOIs and way too often, I don't go the extra mile and "over-kino" with a woman unless I'm given enough of an IOI. For example, grabbing her hand. Kissing her. Haven't done those yet because I never yet felt the appropriate time to do so. Now my question is, is this a bad thing? I feel I really need to get out of my head and push the boundaries sometimes, so I don't come across as AFC. Especially her being straight out of Columbia where cultures between men and women are probably very different.

But I also don't wanna fuck this one up! She's a Latin firecracker for Christ sakes!

It's all in a state of mind. Be the bigger man, and you can never lose.

She's female like any other, treat her as such.

Also, "not wanting to fuck things up" is a good way to, you guessed it, FUCK THINGS UP.

I'd def focus on escalating. She'll let you know if you're going too fast, don't you worry. Simply back up, work some more comfort, escalate further, rinse, wash, and repeat. And remember, to some other guy she may not be so hot and he'd have a lot less difficulty escalating, so give your head a shake.
