I am not great looking, well I don't know anyway. Shy. Have yet to really get good approaching, but besides the point of this post. I have had 2 dates this week so far (and more to come). They both ended with a kiss (and I almost positive could have ended with more) when before any date I would go on would end with a pathetic attempt to kiss them (after doing nothing to escalate) or a text the following day "Had fun, but I didn't feel anything romantically"

What did I do differently this summer, and this week? I didn't suddenly become more interesting (I don't think). I didn't become magically better looking. But I have been focusing on just 2 things that (were) outside of my comfort zone. Touching, and eye contact. Thats it..literally. And this has led to every date this summer (except for one) ending with making out, and no rejection.

Date 1: Met up with her at the bar for a drink. Then we went to the fair (Can you say perfect for escalating). We were on rides touching each other, where I could hold her hand. I just focused on that. We went back to the bar. At one point she says "So what are you thinking?" I tell her "I'm not going to tell you". She keeps asking...meanwhile she has a beer in front of her face. When she puts it down I lean in and kiss her and say "Thats what I was thinking, the beer was in the way" corny maybe but it worked. This date ended in her asking me if we can "sit in the back of my car" with her grinding on me etc.

Date 2: This was trickier, this girl was beautiful but real shy...didn't want to look me in the face alot when we were talking. She loves beer and so do I. We got a flight and then went to a Barcade. The whole time i was putting my arm around her and getting nothing in return. She was not reciprocating but not pulling away. Felt pretty neutral...felt like I was screwing it up.

When we were walking home she stops to point something out she sees on a building..I don't even know what she was talking about but it was chilly so I put my arm around her and leaned in in like a "Get your perspective" type of thing. This felt risky, but while she was talking I just turned her head to me and kissed her. I get a "You're a great kisser" and all of a sudden she is all giddy and putting her arm around me for the walk home. Ends at her car making out some more and when i try to leave her pulling me back in with "How did you get to be so good at kissing". She says "Ugh..if I didn't have work in the morning..."

I am not remotely close to a "pro". I've just been trying one little thing that scares me/is foreign to me and its been working! So everyone, just give something you've never done a try!

TL;DR Just try something different and new to you and you may be shocked how easy it is and how great results you will have!
