So here's the story. Keep in mind, I'm mid 20's, have had casual sex, but nothing serious. Now I'm looking for something serious.
About a month ago, a cute girl starts coming after me. Asking me on hikes, asking to hear my opinions. At first I thought she was setting me up with a friend of hers who has a crush on me, so I blew her off.
Obviously, that gets her interested in me. Eventually she invites herself over to watch a movie. I'm moving, have no furniture, so we watch the movie on a pile of blankets on the floor. We're snuggling, end up kissing, I can tell she wants to escalate, but I tell her I'm after something more serious and send her home. I don't regret that, I didn't want to have sex so soon.
I thought she'd be done, but she texts me next morning saying how much fun she had.We meet up twotimes at more interesting locations, I continue to escalate things physically while she continues to want to move faster (says she can wait though). Then she goes on radio silence.
I can think of two reasons. (1) I began to give her two much attention over text, replying too quickly, being accomodating about dates. I knew I shouldn't, but I couldn't resist. (2) I suggested that we both get tested before sex. I think it's a smart policy after I've had some close calls, but I think it turned her off. I'll reconsider in the future. (3) She really did just want something brief and physical and I wasn't delivering.
Here's the interesting ending. She hasn't responded to last two texts, so I'm pretty sure she's done. I decide to take a gamble and send her a text telling her 'fuck being smart, I want to have sex. Get over here asap.' This gets an instant 'nope. busy' response. I still want her, but I don't feel that bad.
And here's the question: Would this kind of text ever work? I made the mistake of sending it on a friday night hoping she would have had a beer and be feeling spontaneous, but would a dull weeknight have been a better choice?
General advice on how to do better in future also appreciated.
Your mistake wasn't the text you sent her. Your mistake was not fucking her when she was begging for it.
Jesus man, she's probably embarrassed as fuck. If she was throwing herself at you, you teased her like that, and then sent her home... she's probably ashamed of herself. She wanted to get fucked. You wanted to "wait for something more serious."
Way to make a girl feel totally unattractive and not sexy.
