Tonight was the third date I had with this chick and I’m pretty much thinking I’m just being used for attention at this point when I evaluate it, but certain things she does throws me off.

DATE #1- I took her to Dave & Buster’s and we had a fun time there. No kissing or anything like that at any point, but a little bit of flirting. Overall it went pretty well.

DATE #2- We went to laser tag and had a good time messing up some kids and flirting a little there (side note; it was originally supposed to be rock climbing but she wanted to change it since she worked out earlier that day. I agreed since I didn’t really care and thought laser tag would be fun.) After I walked her to her car, we started making out pretty intensely and I stopped it at a good time to keep sexual tension for the next date. From some of the things I’ve been reading, you shouldn’t kiss unless you escalate it into sex the same night, so maybe I already fucked up here. I also went to feel her up around her pussy, but she stopped my hand and we just kept kissing. I thought that was natural though since it was in a somewhat public area in a kids laser tag parking area lol.

DATE #3- we went to some taco bar place tonight and had a couple of drinks and tacos. It was really chill and allowed us to talk more in depth. We were pretty open about where we were going with our lives and we both recognized that what we were doing was casual and would not lead to anything serious since she leaves in 3 months out of the states. We flirted a lot during this time too and had a really good time overall I really feel like. When I walked her to the car, I pretended like I was just gonna leave (it seemed like it was an implied thing that this make out was going to happen). So when I did this, she actually held my hand back as if to say “stay and make out”. I personally like making out, so I didn’t mind. BUT when I went to escalate from making out and basically say “we should go somewhere more private” she said “I don’t think that’s in the cards tonight”.

Other potentially important details: I have initiated all of the dates, and we never really talk outside of logistics. When she does text me though, she seems really outgoing and excited to go out with me. She’ll even say “I can’t do this time, but what about this time?” Things like that. When we were making out, it seems like she’s into it (especially the second date), but this last date she kinda started smiling in the middle of it pretty hard. I’m not sure if it’s because I was bad, or because she actually was just wanting to smile, but I called her out on it (in a very light hearted, haha kind of way), but she just said “nothing, you just make me smile”. Then we proceeded to make out lol

Basically, I think I’m being strung along. But some of the details like her wanting me to stay and make out and her energetic texts confuse me. My plan right now is a soft next on her, and I’m not really stressed on it. I’m more or less just curious as to where her mind is, and what you all think.
