Just want to vent, and help some of you that have the same problem as me. Learn from my mistakes, I'm sure this will hit home with some of you.
Met a girl through a travel group and we went hiking together because she was new in town. No other pretext. She ended up being super cute and smart and we hit it off and had a great conversation. Later that night I showed her around town and took her to a few cool bars, I feel like there is some chemistry, feeling good. Meetup with another friend later that night, and when the night ends I tell her goodnight, she is down to go hiking again soon.
Couple days later I go hiking with her again and her new friend. We are travelers so meeting people is the name of the game. I've just been on town longer for work. We go hiking, have a good time. Later that night after I am done work I meet up with her and her friend and take them out. Playfully flirt with her and feel like I'm playing my cards just right. Bar we are at is full of dudes and they are all over her, I play it cool and do my thing. Starts getting wierd so I suggest we leave and her and her friend agree. Feel like the man, take them to a bunch of clubs and we have a good time.
Night ends and the three of us are at their hostel. We chat a bit and I play chess with her. Her friend leaves. Game ends and we keep talking. Long eye contact, we are touching more, and the conversation is good but getting long. I suggest we call it a night.
And... That's it.
I should have made a move but I was too pussy. Played all my cards right but when the moment was right, I choked. I told myself I'd make a move next time, but next time never came and she left. I feel like a coward and have been kicking myself ever since. This is what I always do.
At least I made it that far, which is better than I have in the past but I can't stop thinking about how I should have made a move. She was beautiful, cool, and seemed interested. I hate myself sometimes. Next time I won't fuck it up but still, I would love to finally seal the deal with a girl I am genuinely interested in for once. Even just for one night, one kiss, whatever. I'll be on the road again soon and more opportunities will come. Just needed to get this out of my system cuz it's been eating me up.
Moral of the story: shoot your shot. Take a chance. Make a move.
Or live with regret.
