Is leaving it to the third date for sex too late?

[slashrfnr]

Long story short. Flirting with a girl at work on and off for a while, but resigned to not taking action because I didn't want to complicate things, but still flirt and chat, and went back to dating other girls. Closest friend at work basically tells me he slept with her, but it was way before I started working with them. She texts me saying she wanted to tell me, glad I found out, lets go for a drink and chat.

Go to the park with her on Friday, she talks about shit for an hour, and I just sit there in silence until she cracks. Starts dancing round the subject before I call her out on her shit. She confesses she really likes me etc. Make out a lot, try to get her back to mine, but she has bridesmaid dress shopping the next day, but texts me saying she wished she had come back to mine.

Text her on Sunday to make plans for this week, with the aim of her coming to mine and me cooking dinner, and then escalating to sex. Nightmare...she is going to Portugal for 5 days on Wednesday. But she suggests plans for tomorrow night (monday), and even reschedules her exam on Tuesday so she can do this.

My issue is, I live quite far out of central London, so I don't think I'm going to be able to get the lay on a weeknight. Is waiting for the third date, and making sure she is at mine for sex going to be moving too slow? I mean she seems quite invested in me, but I know that time is the enemy of seduction

Do it in the car (your car or her car). If not, find somewhere isolated, like one of those big toilets for disabled. She's investing a lot to see you, don't disappoint her

Time isn't the problem.

Moving too slow and having bad logistics is.

Personally I wouldn't bother meeting her until after she's been away.

Either you'll get sex, and that puts pressure on her to be 'faithful' while she's in Portugal which she may or may not be, or you won't and she'll have sex with someone on holiday and then you probably won't hear from her after that.

It doesn't really make any sense to do anything at this time IMHO, though other people might disagree.
