I'm a 20M, low average looking, funny as hell dude, if you ask me. Already got laid with a few girls but I still struggle a lot escalating in a date.

Getting a date is the easy part for me. Then, I know how to treat girls and make them enjoy their time, but after all that is done... I don't know how to advance any further without it being too weird.

So I had this date with "Kate". Kate and I matched on Tinder and I got her number pretty quickly. Then, we texted a lot overnight, felt a good vibe and after 3-4 days we set up a date.

I met Kate today and god she was so hot, my Jaw dropped.

We went to get some beers and talk about shit. Everything okay until I manage to get the chance to sit right next to her. I stay in this position for a long time, get my leg close to hers, but then... nothing. I didn't know how to go any further. No more tricks in my sleeve, and just putting my arm around her/getting closer seems so forced that I just can't go for it. I don't want it to be weird and that kills every chance.

Anyway, we were wasting a lot of time doing nothing so I decided to get Kate somewhere else.

We walked until we reached a beautiful place to chill a little and talk. We stood there, quiet and doing nothing. Then I looked at her for a long moment and I had some mental thought about how to approach her.

I felt quite insecure at this point. First, I had the thought she was too hot for me. Second, without further kino I didn't feel confident enough to go for a kiss. And third, I wasn't reading any signs because she seemed tired. After a while, I said that if she was tired, we could just meet another day (because I wasn't making any progress whatsoever). Kate said she was indeed a bit tired and since I was bummed, I told her we should go home. I hugged her and left a few hours ago.

How am I supposed to go further? I always struggle a lot in this step and it's driving me nuts because I wanted to try to kiss her so bad and I just don't find the way. Any tips on this?
