  • I'd worry more about not kissing if I were you. Not sure how old are you both, but 3 dates and no kiss suggests to me that there might not be attraction there... I know people are different and some are more reserved but still...

    Hi mate, you really should have gone for the kiss on the first date tbh. I am not saying she has friendzoned you, as she still seems interested, but you need to take initiative and make her know that you're attracted to her in a romantic way.

    By the way this reads, it sounds as though you're waiting for her to take the initiative, but women don't want that; they want the guy to take control.

    One thing i will say is, do not text her constantly. If you do have to text her, once or twice a day is fine, maybe a good morning text asking how she is, and one in the evening asking how her day was.

    If you start texting every time she doesn't reply, she will think you're a guy who is too available and find you less attractive. Women want a guy who isn't available all the time and has a life of his own.

    Try to focus on other things in your day, not just her.

    Good luck!

    Thanks for your input...

    I am gonna keep seeing her and asking her on dates for now and take things slow/at her pace...

    When she feels more comfortable with me she will text me more/wanna see me more...

    Gonna leave her & will text her on Wednesday to confirm date if heard nothing from her

    You should have set up the date for wednesday face to face, then text her tuesday or wednesday morning to confirm everything and make sure everything was still on.

    Ok I have texted her this evening and got no reply that's why I am letting her text me

    How much are you texting her, pal? I think you're showing signs of neediness which isn't attractive to women. You need to hold off of texting and just meet her on wednesday if she is still on for then.

    Perhaps she's dating other people, perhaps she's just not that into you, perhaps she really likes you and wants to take it slow...you need to talk to her to find out. If its relaxed dating then see other people maybe. I was always told kiss first/second date and sleep together on third, seemed like an odd 'rule' to me but kinda worked out that way last 5 dates or so.

    I'd want to step it up or move on in your situation but I did have one girl who wanted to take it really slow and it was a month before anything happened because she wanted to get to know me/had been hurt in past.

    Talk to her, find out where she is at, don't be needy.

    OP i think you should stop worrying about texting and actually make a phonecall, i have had so many misunderstandings through texting over the years. You even havent had a proper kiss yet and its two months in, maybe she doesnt fancy you, there is a difference between liking and actually fancying someone.

    I would go in for a full on kiss on the lips and if she moves to one side or moves away then i guess you would have your answer, that she sees you more as a friend than anything more. In that case i would move on.

    Thanks for your advice...

    I am gonna wait a little bit longer & she if she texts a bit more hopefully over time she will...

    Might ask her if she prefer to speak on the phone rather than texting...

    I am just used to texting all the time and have never met a girl that don't like texting.

    But I got nothing to worry about if she keeps accepting my dates etc.

    I am not gonna text her till wed and let her text me. Might speak to her at football...

    I don't like texting ... and find it very annoying when someone texts me all the time. I have things that need doing and that doesn't change just because I am seeing someone. I'm happy with just one text, sometimes two, a day. Anything more at the start of a relationship seems like stalking to me .... And people in established relationships don't text each other loads of times a day anyway either - certainly not the people I know.

    Great to know that it is going well otherwise, and I hope that it turns into a more serious relationship for you.
