Went out with a 36 year old professor. Had an awesome time, or so I thought. We talked for 3 hours, walked around to different spots, ate ice cream. Tried escalating but she wasn’t receptive. She was extremely keen on asking me questions about my life. Made the point to tell me she was direct with her intentions, got really deep with the conversation. Tried light touches here and there to break the touch barrier but just didn’t happen.

Like, we walked all over the place. Tried touching her back a few times even.

We shared pretty vulnerable moments honestly. I definitely didn’t feel like I was off my game. I was pretty “on” for the most part but maybe I just misread it.

She held my hand for like 10 seconds at one point but it was pretty vanilla.

Date ends, thought things went well. Shoot a text yesterday asking to make plans, crickets. All that talk about being direct and honest was in fact, full of shit.

Truly, words absolutely don’t mean shit if you don’t at least kiss or fuck. It’s so disappointing that regardless of the age, profession, what they say, it literally does not matter if you do not physically make a move. God it’s so stupid.
