So yesterday I went for a walk with my roommate and kissed her. This morning I invite her to listen to some music on my turntable. She actually wants to do it then and there, I am not really feeling it and say that we'll do it later. Write her on messenger and ask whether 4 o' clock is good for her. She writes back that she actually isn't sure about coming to my room. I kinda don't want to reward her for resistance and also think that text isn't good for dealing with that, so I don't answer and after 2,5 hours go over to invite her and handle what I believed to be token resistance.
I have handled it like a complete fucking chump.
Instead of laughs and touchy-feely in the morning, where I probably should have just taken her to my room, she first of all acts as if she doesn't my first time knocking. After a while I knock again, she opens the door, I want to transition her to my room. She tells me no, she has to go out and do stuff and shower before that. I half-heartedly persist, walk after her going to the bathroom. She tells me she has to shower, I say "And after that we hangout", she laughs and says no. Avoids me, doesn't want to be touched (I cringe looking back at it). I tell that it is okay. She "wants to think about it", I repeat it back to her, raising an eyebrow, laughs and says yes. "Maybe later". Followed by an "You need to leave", pushing me out.
Back in my room I am discombobulated. Don't have the experience to know what is happening right now. Write off the whole thing and send a hail mary text to maybe cool things off and ramp them back up again (which I don't really believe in, must have lost massive attraction when basically begging to meet up). I want to leave an olive branch which she kinda takes me up on, but then agrees to break it off.
Text conversation:
Me: 4 o clock sound good?
Her: acutally I am not sure about come to your room
2.5h pass, I do the cringy stuff
Me: Hey, I understand being nervous or shy, but if it there is no spark between us I'd just rather leave it at that
Her: It is not all about the being shy actually, I can't predict what will happen so it makes me nervous
So I think leave it at that is logical
Me: I don't want to pressure you into something you don't want. You know you can leave at anytime, and I understand your concerns. What about meeting in the kitchen later and talking about it? We both like the thing we have going and don't you think it would be silly to lose it about something like that?
I definitely know I could have handled the begging situation better. I also wonder whether I should have made her chase me more. The whole seduction I was under the impression that she primarily needs comfort, with her already being attracted to me. Makes me rethink complimenting her so much on stuff like her interests and first impression. Should I have been more aloof? Not told her I like her while she was thinking about what to think about me kissing her?
Million dollar question:
What the fuck do I do about a girl being nervous to see me because she is afraid of hooking up? Man, what a shitty fucking problem to have.
I am sure that the charade was enough for her to lose attraction for me and that she doesn't want to continue it. If somebody has a certain article he thinks would clear up my question and how I can behave more attractively in the future, please comment here or shoot me a message. This is really throwing me for a loop.
Maybe she doesn't want to be a slut, so I should have shown her that I am non-judgemental. Maybe more comfort building before inviting her to my room, but I had planned on doing that in there. Phew, at least I feel like I took a few important steps toward being the person I want to be.
