No.. you're probably going to slow.. you're probably more in her friend zone at this point because you waited until the 3rd date to go for it..
You need to learn escalation - escalation starts within the first 2 seconds of a date - by giving her a proper hug - then escalate from there throughout the night.
You're in severe danger of losing this girl - because you're being too shy and not being sexual with her.

I know it a process but are there any pro tips you can give me? I’m naturally a pretty shy and awkward person but I’ve slowly been breaking out of it. Though admittedly I’m still learning. She seems to be a person who likes to take her time with things which is why I waited. But she has made sexual and flirty jokes about my appearance and such but I just took them as jokes and lightly flirted back.

Just because she seems to want to take her time doesn't mean she wants to wait..
Men get turned on by confident men, you not taking any initiative shows no confidence.
Best tips is to read all the top threads on escalation in this sub and the other related ones and watch 10 YouTube videos - take notes and you should be good to go.

I appreciate it man, how should I handle the situation with that girl from here on out though? Should I be more flirty and physical? If so in what way?

I think you waited too long for a cliche moment like pulling up in her driveway and going for the goodbye kiss. She is clearly interested in you and wanted you to come off stronger. She was probably hoping for a spontaneous moment during the middle of a date (not the end) when you take the initiative. Like literally grab her and pull her in. This isn’t creepy at all considering it’s a 3rd date. If she agreed to a 3rd date she is very interested — just keep that in mind

Yeah agree with the other dude you was to slow do a few test touches on the arm maybe hold her hand first then it’s time to kiss, you know she is okay with being psychical if she let you hold her hand… unless you’re in 8th grade then maybe she just wanted to hold hands but anyone that’s sexually active if they hold hands they’re probably hinting they want you to be physical with them , doesn’t mean it’s lost forever but if you like someone do it on the first date, second date MAX if there is no good time to do it on the first date. I kissed my now girlfriend within 8 hours of knowing her we met hiking, was standing by a water fountain after we finished the hike and she sort of like got closer to me because we was just messing around I think I may have pushed her and she was jokingly squaring up to me so I just put my hand on her face and kissed her , she said she was shocked and didn’t like it to happen that quickly but … we just had our 2 year anniversary

It seems It was natural for you and it was natural for her to wait a little longer. It's okay, I think you should reach out to her and explain things like you did right here. Apologize with this caught her out on surprise and express your intentions.
