I met a cute international student in one of my classes, and got her number the first day of class. I flirted around a little bit over text by teasing her, and in short told her I like her personality and wanted to get to know her more. She came over this afternoon to help me with some class work. The first thing I did when we met up was kissed her on one cheek, looked her deep in the eyes, and then kissed her on the other cheek. Afterwards, I quipped isn't that how they do it in Romania. From there, I put my arm around the small of her back and lead her back to my bed, where she started helping me with school work.

I got some solid body language IOI's. She kept moving closer to the point where our bodies were pushed up against each other side to side. She was twirling her hair in her finger and pushed it behind her ear. I used that as a signal to toucher he earrings and brush her hair and neck. There was some deep gazing eye contact the whole time. After I finished my work we went out for yogurt. I went to grab her hand, she pulled it away. She said that holding hands was strange in her culture, and that she preferred that I put my arm around her, which I did once again.

We started talking at the yogurt place, and she said that her main complaint about American guys is that they are too forward. After the yogurt place, I walked her home because she had a test to study for the next morning. She gave me a long hug and burrowed her head into my chest. We said our goodbyes, and when we left I went to hang out with another girl. After hanging out with the other girl, I realized that I really like the international girl's personality, and want to pursue her more.

My main concern is being too forward. I believe that I played my cards pretty solid for a first time meeting outside of class, specially since we only chilled for a few hours during the afternoon. I do not want to go for the F close too early, but at the same time I do not want to appear to be a chicken when it comes to escalating. I could use some advice for the next time I see her, especially outside of class.

You should've tested her during the bed scene where your bodies got closer. You might have had some success.

Just keep doing what you're doing, it's working.

Thanks man, next time I have her over I will keep escalating on my bed and see where she establishes her boundary.
