Trying to avoid posting a manifesto so here's a reasonably condensed version.

Have had only positive reactions from some chick with a boyfriend, I've been escalating kino but been a bit cautious about it due to the second part of that sentence. She wanted to hang out, so I invited her over and she was down until her boyfriend apparently wasn't comfortable with that. Whatever, we go for a hike instead and have a good time. We climb a tree and she's touching my thighs and shit telling me how hot they are (joking way for plausible deniability I guess) and we end up holding eye contact in silence. I knew that would have been the time to kiss if I wanted to, but I pussied out.

We're all in high school which means if she wasn't into it after I tried to escalate, word will get around fast, possibly ruining chances with future bitches here. I know like nothing about the boyfriend other than that she's told me he doesn't like me because he thinks I'm interested in her (lol), but they seem to have a good LTR thing going. If it weren't for him I definitely would have tapped in by now, signs seem to be pointing in my favor, but the repercussions are damn high if I fuck up. Thoughts?
