| Hi guys, I've been reading this forum for a while but this is my first post. I'm a 22 year old college student, and I've been trying to rejuvenate my less than ideal dating life with some help from you guys, and have been doing pretty well with one girl I had been talking with until this week. I'll try to keep it short. I went on three dates with this girl - first date, k-close, she's all over me. second date - back to her bedroom after watching a movie, k-close, she's all over me but doesn't want to have sex. Understandable, she doesn't know me that well yet. Third date, meets an annoying friend of mine, gets turned off that I have druggie friends. I convince her that she should be focusing on me, not the choices of the people I hang out with and she's into it again. Next time we meet, back to my place, hook up, things going well, but she doesn't want to have sex because she says she doesn't trust me yet and we just keep kissing, date finishes on a good note but she doesn't act the same the rest of the week. Now here's the kicker. I have to see this girl virtually every day, and a friend of mine told me that she stopped being interested because I'm a bad kisser. I think that it might have been something else (why hook up with me 3 times before deciding that?), but regardless, this isn't a reputation I want to have. She's in a major friend group of mine; I laughed it off to the friend who told me this, but it's really frustrating she couldn't have told me that if that's really the case. How best can I damage control this situation so that I don't have that reputation? Should I stop trying to attract this girl?
TLDR: Girl in major friend group loses interest; friend tells me she said I was a bad kisser. If she was interested in me enough to hook up 3 times, is she a lost cause now? How can I save face? A little oneitis might be involved, but I genuinely do like her. First girl I've been with in a while, so this is killing my self-esteem...
