Here's the scenario, wondering how you would proceed from here if you were me:

EDIT: I should mention I am 42 and she is a super hot 25 year old dancer/actress, so this is a particular challenge.

Met a girl at a bar Super Bowl Sunday, hung out and had a blast.

Had an awesome 3.5 hour drinks the following Monday. Then we texted for TWO FULL DAYS just joking around before we finally set up another date for last Tuesday.

Played it cool and didn't text her for 4 days until I heard FROM HER on Monday asking how my weekend was. We texted ALL DAY, then the date went great Tuesday. Drinks, food, movie... When I dropped her off SHE LEANED IN and stuck her tongue down my throat!!

Then she TEXTED ME Wednesday to say thanks again. We joked around via text until we said goodnight.

Here's where it gets confusing:

We exchanged 20 funny texts on Thursday, before i asked when we were hanging out again. She said she had a couple dance gigs on Saturday (she's a dancer) so she couldn't really go out and drink for a couple nights, so "sometime after that." I threw out some dates for the next week, but she didn't respond.

I felt weird having a lingering text, so on Friday I just texted her to say Good Luck and start a new conversational thread. SHE THANKED ME RIGHT AWAY and asked how my night was. A couple exchanges later she disappeared again.

I know she had a class and then had to go bed early because she had to get up at like 4am Saturday morning for this important dance gig. But I feel awkward reaching out again, because I initiated the conversations Thursday and Friday.

Now 4 days have passed.

I know she will respond if I text her BUT I WANT HER TO CHASE ME. But I'm concerned that she has left me lingering the last couple of exchanges and I don't want to come on too strong.

That said, she's young and hot and I think I need to stay in the game by reaching out. I also consider us friends so I feel weird not asking her how her gig was yet. 5 days will be tomorrow...

Bottom line: I've made progress with this girl, we click, we kissed, she has shown definite interest up until the couple days before her big gig, and I want to fuck her on a regular basis. How do I flip it around so she is chasing me?

Do I wait until tomorrow and re-engage? Or keep waiting and force her to reach out to me?

UPDATE: Waited five days and texted her today. She wrote me back several hours later apologizing for the delay because she was booking a commercial. I told her I will catch up with her tomorrow because I was heading to dinner. I didn't mention it was with another girl of course but it was... So I'm back in the game!!

Will let you know how it proceeds, because I have yet to fuck her, and that's the heart of this thread

WHAT I LEARNED: Her and I have spent 9 hours together on three separate occasions. My main focus the entire time was on making her laugh and being high energy. Between dates, I worked hard to think of funny texts and keep her amused. The result is we built a solid foundation of having fun together so it comes easy between us now. It also reduced the chances she was going to disappear for good on me.

I got a little carried away with texting at a time that she happened to be busy and ended up getting a couple texts unanswered. That lead to hesitation and a need to disappear for a while. Going forward, I will learn to CALIBRATE to her life better so I am never the one left waiting for a response. The keywords are SCARCITY VALUE. Until you have fucked her many times, there is a game of attraction to be played and you have to respect it. It's simply the laws of nature
