ok I went out with an HB9 2 weeks ago for coffee. She had to get ready for a trip the next day so we only went out for 1.5 hours. She talked most of the time about her adventures, I kept good eye contact, decent tonality and body language, a bit of kino although I wish I did more. The date was decent, but not up to pua standards. She then cut it short.

I sent her a message that night to have a safe trip and added some callback humour. She didnt reply. Last week she sent me a message suggesting we catch up when she returns (she got back on the weekend). I told her, sure Id love that and to let me know when she gets back...on valentines day she texts for us to have coffee on the weekend, I reply with weekend should be fine and that I'll let her know when the best time is. She hasn't replied but since I ended the conversation there I can still make the next move without losing value.

Now, Since it's been 2 weeks since I've seen her, I feel as if I need to put some work in to build attraction and comfort. She is gorgeous and smart, thats why I didnt have my A game the first time, but surprisingly, she's still interested so I got a second chance. I'm thiinking it would be a good idea to call her soon to build some comfort and have her think about me. It might also help for the second date. I don't want to just have another coffee with her next time, I want a full date and to bounce her on a different venue.

Should I call her soon before the weekend so Im on her mind for the next few days? texting seems a little too safe and might end up a dlv since it doesnt show as much courage as calling. She also barely texts and when she does, its usually after a few hours. Whats the best way to handle this? I want to do my best and not have any regrets.

good for you man.

just don't screw things up by asking for advice here; use your instincts.
depending on any kind of PUA stuff is not helping you to listen to your "inner voice".
PUA material is superficial and ignores the subtle energy processes involved in interpersonal relations.

a woman's energy field penetrates yours and feels you up beyond your inner game in the first seconds as you get into her vicinity.. women subconsciously get a "feel" of you, but often can't put a finger on it consciously. PUA tacticts such as the 3 second rule and the whole shabang that follows it, are a superficial way to distract her from listening to her inner voice/instincts and override the HB's 7th sense

her being still interested in you without you delivering PUA tactics correctly speaks for you.
better not to make the mistake of being a PUA buzzfly nuissance.. unless you think she's just a piece of shit.

only saying this because it seems that she means a wee more to you than the standard HB..

I know what you're saying man, you can't bs a girl cause inner game always comes out in the open, that's what congruency is all about. Sometimes going natural works out well and is much more fluent but I don't have enough experience to be a full natural. PUA routines are a stepping stone for when you improve your skills.

As long as I do my best, I honestly wouldn't care if she never speaks to me again cause I'd have no regrets, so it's not quite one-itis, but yea I definitely like her more than a lot of HBs, not just cause she's hot, but her character is really great and her interest in me really helped to boost my confidence.

Anyways, I'll do what I can and listen to my instincts. I'll try to kino escalate slowly and make her laugh. I should also get her to talk about sex or get into sexual frame. Last time I stayed too much in comfort and if I do it again then sexual attraction will be lost and here comes friend zone lol

Whatever happens, I hope to learn a lot at least, and if it doesnt work out, then I'll make it a goal to date at least 3-4 HBs by march, just to improve my game that much faster.
