A little background: I'm 31, Canadian, and currently staying in Wroclaw, Poland. I'm 5'9, athletic, above average looking, Petroleum Technologist, good sense of humor and introverted, to give you an idea of my SMV.

I got a Tinder match last night at 11:00 pm with a surprisingly cute Polish 22 year old. It was the first good match I've had in two weeks of being in Poland. I don't photograph well so I've never had much luck getting a lot of matches on Tinder. The Tinder chat was straightforward. I basically threw her a mild compliment and suggested we go for a beer. After a little convincing she agreed. We met in the main square and I was pleasantly surprised that she was even hotter than she looked in her pictures. She was 5'4 with blonde hair, big tits (C or D cup) that she was showing off and a tight body. Overall a solid 7. We walked off to a local pub for some beers. This girl spoke really good English (she'd been dating an Irish guy) so the chatting and banter was very natural. We had really good chemistry and the conversation flowed effortlessly - a nice change from the recent painstaking dates I'd been on with Polish girls with basic English. She was smart, out-going, and had a fun vibe - the types of girls I always fall for.

A few days prior I had been out with an even hotter Polish girl that I'd picked up from day game and I failed to escalate. I let her attractiveness effect my game. I was trying not to lose her instead of trying to get her. I told myself I wouldn't let that happen again with this blonde girl so I made a point to start escalating early. I was doing little arm and back touches after teasing her and poking and tickling her a little for fun at different times. She never objected but was more neutral about it than inviting. At one point she commented about how she had surgery to remove a birthmark on her back and that it hurt to wear a bra because of the friction from the bra strap. I told her to go braless then and she remarked that her boobs were too big for that. I pulled her shirt out to look at her tits and said, "oh I didn't notice". She giggled a little. She went to the bathroom near the end of the night and when she came back I noticed her shirt was a bit lower, showing off her big tits even more. Obviously she was trying to draw my attention to them. She had this big purse out and I leaned over to snoop inside it and bug her about what was inside. As I did, I put my hand on her lower back. At that point she said something like, why are you touching me? Or why are you touching me so much? I can't remember which. I felt a bit of anger when she said that but I tried not to let it show. It was like she decided in the bathroom that the next time I touched her she was going to confront me about it. I backed off of the touching for a bit and then when we started walking home I fired it back up and she continued to ask the same question. She never full out said don't touch me but she was questioning why I was doing it. I fired off some plausible deniability about Canadians being affectionate and laid off the touching until we got to the point where we had to part ways. I offered for her to come back for a drink at my apartment which she declined. I gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek and said good-bye. After I broke the hug she was still standing there looking at me so I went back for another hug and tried to kiss her. She kind of pulled away from the kiss but I still got a little one in. When I got home I saw that she had texted me goodnight with a smiley face.

So what does everyone make of the escalation questioning? Was it a shit test? What's the best way to handle it? Maybe she hadn't experienced a guy trying to escalate with her on a first date before?

Update: I've been texting with her a bit today. Invited her out which she initially accepted but then flaked on. Interest is obviously low.
