Likely the final post of my HB8 Lawyer chain. See Makeout in her Porsche, Goo Goo Dolls, Night 2 and Moonlight hike, BJs and Bolt-Ons, Oh My!.

Following some of the solid advice in the last FR comment section, I decided to set up date #5 in a very clear frame for her. In the end she did much of that herself. This was all about sex. If she didn't want that, she would reject the date (or ask to modify it, if she felt able). Therefore, about five days after Date #4 I sent her a text probing availability for the upcoming week.

Me: "Is your mother visiting through Sunday?"

Her mother was staying with her for nine days, I planned to wait that period out.

Her: "Yes, my mother is here until Sunday. But I was going to see if you wanted to have a drink or something later on in the evening some night this week (don't worry, not with mom)."

Me: "Weeknight or weekend evening?"

Her: "Either one. Weekend so I don't keep you up too late on a school night? ;)"

Ok. So she's either teasing me (previous date turned into a bit more of a tease than I would like) or she's totally opening the door to late night activities. I'll just try not to close the door.

Me: "Saturday night desert and ElectronPUA photo album show (growing up in Alaska). I can get Strawberry Shortcake mixings. 9PM, my place."

She responded that she would let me know, needed to check with her mother on their plans, but it sounded good. The next day I receive:

Her: "Saturday at 9 it is. I have at least a pint and a half more than I can eat of strawberries; I'll bring them over. Anyhting else I can bring? Wine maybe?"

I directed her to bring a bottle of Pino, her choice. She brought two.

A couple days before the date I sent her a teasing text message, to make sure she was thinking about the date in a sexual way.

Me: "Perhaps we'll savor whip cream two ways. I'll let you think about that between now and tomorrow night."

HB8: ":) You read my mind! Already been thinking about it."

Things look good.

Saturday night, I bake an angelfood cake and set out some wine glasses. Clean up the apartment a bit (bathroom! Clean it! She'll be in there), prepare the bedroom, make sure all the sex stuff is where it needs to be (no last minute fumbling). Pull out my iPhone and set it to some nice evening music conductive to sexy time.

She lets me know she'll be a little late, she had finished dishes with her mother after dinner. No problem.

Knock at door, open and pull her in for a kiss. You lose some momentum every time you don't see a woman for a week+, and she still could be nervous about coming over. You need to re-heat her. I have been following the two steps forward, one step back strategy. That is, if on the previous date we were in strong kino and kissing, I may open with strong kino. In this case, last date was heavy petting - so I'll open with a kiss (I'm not going to open with heavy petting, though I would love to hear about that - and it's probably possible with the right frame). So I'm firm / confident with the kiss but I have my hands behave themselves (pull her in tight, but keep them to lower back / upper back).

I grab the strawberries and cutting board, we chat at the dining table and she pours wine. Now that I'm watching body language, something isn't right. I have put us in chairs right next to each other at the corner of the table (so we can kino / kiss easily). I reach out and rub her back, thigh from time to time. But she's coming off as a bit stand-off-ish and she is clearly leaning away from me. I consider calling her out on it, as advocated by Eric Disco here. Sometimes I do that, mixed results. But I decide it will become clear what's up soon enough (this being a private environment and me having plans for the night).

So I move us to the couch, she seems receptive. We bring our wine and start making out. She rotates purposefully so she is lying down, I'm on top of her. I'm growling, really getting into it. I'm helping her grind on my thigh, placed between her legs. I'm grabbing hand-fulls of hair and pulling her head back, exposing her neck... It's getting really hot. Then she says it:

Her: "You are SOOO going to hate me."

This is practically the line she gave me last date, when she said she was worried about moving too fast. She can tell she's upset me.

Her: "I was two weeks late... I think it was the surgery. I'm just as frustrated as you are. It started two days ago."

This, I think, was the cause of her bad body language earlier. She was nervous about breaking the news to me.

So old ElectronPUA may have let this be the end of it. Fool around with some degree of undress, maybe a BJ, and then the end of the night. Instead I ask her how far along things are, and whether she is comfortable keeping things 'external' but naked. She seems fine with that, so I lead her to the bedroom and lay down a dark towel on the bed. I work on building her comfort level (and revving her hamster) while exploring with my hands, we get naked... Not knowing how receptive she is to going all the way, I tell her I'm going to "tease her from behind". We go into spooning position and I rub myself repeatedly along her VERY wet region. I've done this three time with women this year. I'm three for three on them begging for it after three to five minutes. I think they are comfortable with the position because you are sort of cuddling (not confrontational face-to-face) and it's hard to protest the activity. Sort of like the Gunwhich finger sneak-attach-from-behind?

F-Close, some more fooling around, a BJ, and then she called it a night (she had an early AM gym session).

TL;DR; Set a clear frame for the fifth date, made it unquestionable that this was about sex. She arrived, seemed nervous / bad body language. Things heat up and she tells me she's on her cycle. Move to the bedroom, tease her until she's begging for it, great sex.
