I have been talking to a girl for a month, maybe a bit more,

I have been busy with work as well as saving up money so i never pursued a date with her until last Thursday when i said for her to meet me in the city,

we met and the date went great we instantly has rapport as we had already been talking for a while, I was charming and kept great eye contact and most of all i enjoyed her company which was great,

I could of been more neutral from the outset, i caught myself leaning forward a few times, which could potentially put some other girls off

Anyway we were out for 2 or 3 hours and then she had to catch the bus home so I made sure she caught it

She said alot of things which made me know she enjoyed herself

''ive never met anyone like you before'' being a personal highlight

she was catching the bus at stand f

when she was leaving i smiled and said ''your bus is leaving soon, so f off''

she laughed and i gave her a kiss

nothing more than a peck

next is where i feel i fucked up

after 45 - an hour she text me

''thank you for the good night''

i text back

''my pleasure''

i thought i was being aloof and this might work in my favor

i would of now told her that i had a great night also see you soon etc etc

i had a busy weekend and didn't text her at all until Sunday evening when i just picked up the chat from the date and showed her some photos i had talked to her about

since then she has replied once and only once per day

i feel like she feels as though she gave away too much, as i didn't reciprocate her text or maybe she doesn't want to come off as too full on as she doesn't want to push me away

all i know is that i like her enough to see her again

her message yesterday evening didn't give me much room to continue on from but it was light hearted enough

i simply replied that its been a busy week for the both of us by the looks of things but im gonna call ypi tomorrow so tell me when your free i wanna see you again

theres nothing you guys can do to change her mind whatever it may be but it felt good typing this out

fuck! im done being a simp!

tl;dr if a girl tells you she had a goodnight then be man enough to tell her how you feel without holding back, game only takes you so far and can hinder you, being yourself is the only salvation in life
