It looks to me like you are focusing too much on the super fine details and tried way too hard to play things by the book ("I read that you're supposed to do XXX"). The problem with that is that it's taking all your focus off of the big picture and causing you to stress out and micromanage everything. I'll probably get tarred and feathered for saying this, but believe me when I say that you don't need to read some stupid pick-up books to learn how to seduce properly. Here's all you need to do: be a confident leader, be funny yet charming, know how to escalate with kino, and get used to having to step out of your comfort zone and hold her hand or kiss her. Any time you get nervous, do a quick count to 3 in your head and JUST DO IT. No more thinking about it. Just do it on the count of 3. You could have done that with the hand holding, the kissing on the lips rather than cheek, etc. And you needed to build more kino throughout the day. And finally, instead of trying to overanalyze her body language and things like that, you should have been living in the moment and trying to have fun instead. You'd be amazed at how effectively that will rub off on her.
As for the texting, you clearly sent some of those texts with an expected outcome that did not turn out the way you intended. You wanted her to show you some kind of validation or security, but she didn't and now you feel worse. Your text was also inconsistent with your kino earlier in the day (not holding her hand, yet calling her sweet via text), which just comes off as looking needy.
Thanks for the great advice. I totally agree on the part of me "thinking too much" which has been a problem all my life, and is properly one of the biggest problems i have to solve. I haven't wrote to her since that last message, and she hasn't been writing to me either. Is this one gone or is there something i can do to get this one going again without seeming needy?
