Honestly don't escalate when she shows that she's not interested. If you touch her, and she moves away or looks disinterested - stop escalating. Don't do it for sometime and try again. If she doesn't respond well again - it means she's not really interested. Well and good. Go find another girl.
I had to learn this the hard way. I read somewhere that you always had to escalate even if the girl isn't responding well. I tried it on a girl and it went really south. I am only happy that she didn't go around telling everyone that I was sexually challenged.
So don't always fucking escalate

Yeah to follow this point, OP, sometimes if you completely back off, even to the point of NGAF and I mean really being there internally as a mindset, she may instantly notice the subtle cues that show your lack of want for her and she will work to make sure you want what she has. Don't take it when she throws it back. If a woman wants you, she will move heaven and earth to get to you.

If you're reading like an autistic idiot, then yes you're right. Always assume attraction -> always escalate AT FIRST and see where it goes is the way to go.

This is the right mental approach. You escalate to gouge weather she's interested or not. If she isn't receptive of your escalations (2nd escalation tops), then move on to other girls.
A girl that is receptive of your escalation will actually make things easier for you, because it will make things more comfortable for her.

You didn't escalate because you werent interested... stop killing yourself over that and find better parties next time

OP was 100% interested in her validation and ego stroke though. Or else this Field Report doesn't exist.

Jesus Donald Trump could use this to build part of the wall

You don't "wait" for magical moments, you create them. When you hug her, if she's into it, that's when you look her in the eyes and go in for the kiss. Her talk of "a boring night" were her ways of trying to kill the dead air while hoping for something from you.
Maybe this will help. Dante Nero has a podcast called "Beige Philip." The first time I ever listened in, the guest they had on basically nailed it with these kind of moments. He had been flirting with some girl, he brings he back to his car where they had a drink. Its quiet, he tried making small talk, she didn't seem interested, she's looking away out the window. Then he waits, then he tells her "come closer. Take your clothes off." He basically took a dead moment and lead, he took control. If she were as uninterested as she initially showed, she would have probably gave him a funny look and walked out, she was instead bored because there was no escalation.
His finishing words after that story were "sometimes guys just talk too fucking much instead of taking action."

That first sentence is great, never heard it before.

I feel like you're still overthinking it. If you want to kiss her move in for a kiss. If you don't don't. But if you don't don't second guess yourself the next day.

This will get better with time, OP. The more you jump that hurdle of nerves and 'what-ifs', the easier it will be with the next girl. One trick I like to use to create a moment where you can very actively gauge whether or not she'd like to kiss you is by talking about palm reading. It's all bullshit esotericism of course, but if you learn just a few basic lines (5 minutes, tops) there's a 99% chance she will stick out her hand for you to read if she's interested. And chicks LOVE esotericism, so she will be interested. Its light and playful kino, because now your hands are touching and you're telling her a bullshit interpretation of her fate line that tonight she's going to have her future told by a handsome, mysterious stranger. All while giving her that cocky smile, of course. Credits to the Mystery Method for that ol' trick in my toolbox, by the way. Don't want to pretend like I made that up.
If she's thinking of kissing you, while you have hold of her hand and you're talking to her, she will briefly glance at your lips and then back into your eyes. Then you just need to not be a pussy and go for it.
I used this palm reading one last week, but the timing wasn't right because it was at the bar I work at. I had my 'fuck it' moment only hours later when I just leaned across the table in another venue to kiss her.
Should I have done so earlier? Probably.
Did I think about doing it earlier? Most definitely.
Did I re-evaluate the next day and realize my mistakes? Absolutely.
Will I run into this problem again? Maybe, maybe not. But I learned, so the odds are swinging in my favour.
My point with this is that learning to get your instincts congruent with your actions takes practice and reflection and you WILL get there. The best thing I can do for you now right now though is this little tidbit of knowledge I've come to realize:
If you're thinking about whether or not now is the right time to kiss her or steer her towards a kiss, odds are it probably is.
Learn to trust your instincts, OP. They're there for a reason.
Word of mouth is your best friend, trust me. If you fuck a girl right they will tell their friends and when y’all break-up the first girls to call you will be her so called “friends”. This is why we remind guys she’s not yours it’s just your turn because girls are dealt the same deal. Just do your thing. If you don’t wanna have sex, don’t do it but if you do get it over with. Nobody needs you to write a synopsis of every step you take to getting “there” There is no end to this bullshit. You don’t get “there” and last but not least it’s important you don’t forget to laugh.
Just a heads up: you don't have to follow trp strictly. You learn from it and adapt it to your life the way it feels best.
