I went on a date tonight with a friend of a friend. We had met a while ago, where I flirted heavily with her and kinoed a lot.

She ended up asking our mutual friend for my number, snapchatted me, asked me when I was free.

Tonight, we went out, and I kinoed the shit out of her. Touching her constantly, which she reciprocated (although not much). I made sexual conversation, talked about "what we'd be doing later at her place." (Perhaps I didn't use enough eye contact here). In any case, there was a definite shift from me being the prize to her being the prize. At some point, other people knocked on her door, and we all ended up drinking together and playing some sports.

How do you all manage to use direct game while maintaining your status as "the prize?" This is quite the paradox for me... and very, VERY frustrating. I just fucking want to get laid, for Christ's sake. It seems like a miracle that men OR women get laid at all.
