Greetings fellow sedditors. After being a regular lurker for quite some time, I want to preface this by articulating how grateful I am for all that I've learned and will continue to learn here. This is a wonderful source of information and I've definitely seen many improvements not just in my seduction techniques but in my overall confidence in myself and what I can accomplish, which is something I've not had in a very long time.

This is my predicament: Lately, I've managed to get "in the door" with a few women that I've taken an interest in. By this, I mean that for once I can see that I'm giving a good first impression and I can tell that they are interested in me. However, I can hold their attention only so long before things need to get physical.

In a nutshell, I haven't had a physical relationship with a female since high school, and quite frankly I don't know how to do it anymore. I get stuck whenever I've built enough attraction to start "escalating" because I don't know where/when to start. By that point, its clear that I'm no longer in a comfort zone, and my conversational skills start to wane in response to this, which then leaves me with no results on the night.

Basically, help me overcome my somewhat needless fear of physicality. I lack the ability to "go in for the kill", and its really holding me back right now. Where/when does playful physical attraction become serious physical attraction, and what are some tips to keep my head "in the game" rather than focused on how much I don't know what I'm doing.

Also, my first post (obviously) so please be gentle.
