So I‘ve (29 M) been dating this girl (27 F) for 2-3 weeks now, we‘ve had 3 dates so far and things were going great until now.

We had sex on our last date, it was great and the vibe between us when we see each other is perfect as well. However, when we don’t see each other I’m almost always the one to text first and ask her how shes doing, setting up plans for our next date etc., although the always responded positively to my suggestions. Even though I am not the one to text a lot, I‘ve found it harder and harder to communicate with her as I get the feeling of needing to chase her more and more. This is a tendency of mine whenever I date a really hot girl like her as I automatically put her on a pedestal.

Last weekend she was unavailable, going on vacation with her friend and as I suggested we should meet the day when she comes back she responded that she needs some space to chill as it‘s going to be late (this is totally fine for me) and she unenthusiatically said that she‘s open to meet on saturday. I responded that saturday is fine by me and haven‘t gotten an answer since then (almost 1 week).

I like her a lot and could even see her as a future relationship partner, but right now I‘m torn between just playing it cool and waiting for her to respond or doing real talk and admitting my frustration. I don‘t like that I‘m so invested already after only three dates, as I know that trying to commit too early can easily drive the other person away.

TL;DR: I (29M) have been dating a girl (27F) for 2–3 weeks, and while our dates (including sex) have been great, I’m always the one initiating texts and plans. I like her a lot but feel like I’m chasing her, and I’m torn between playing it cool or expressing my frustration without scaring her off.
