"May I perform cunnilingus on you?"

What do you have to lose? It sounds funny and she might just laugh ;)

Reading these threads reminds me of how little I knew about women a few years ago. The act of you going in for the kiss was a BIG DEAL. That's why she pulled away and it felt unnatural.

The key is to slowly escalate physical tension throughout the encounter. If you do this successfully, by the end of the night if she isn't wanting to jump your bones your doing something wrong or she is a lesbian. Get her used to your touch, so that by the end of the night a kiss won't be such a huge step.

why don't you just ask, 'can i give you a kiss?' if she says no, then it's not awkward.. if she says yes, then good.

No, you didn't ladder jump. You were just mistaken which ladder you were on.

Tell her to put out her hand, you want to try something...;)

Dude, I'm well aware of that thread :) In the seven years I've been here, only a few threads have made me laugh harder.

Sounds to me more like he couldn't even find the damned ladder, let alone climb it in the first place.

Any girl stupid enough to be this goddamned repressed deserves to be alone her whole life.

I told her as much and when she moved in to hug me goodbye I went in for a kiss. It all happened so fast, but it appeared to me like she turned her head and I got her on the cheek. Talk about an awkward moment... She acted like nothing happened.

So do you guys think I was already on her friends ladder? If so, am I currently flailing in the abyss?


She invited you into her place after the date? You shouda made a move your move when you were there, not when you were leaving...

I wasn't exactly invited. She said I could come in and hang out for a while if I wanted.

Sounds like invited to me. What is invited in your book? A mailed invitation?

How old are you and how old is the girl? Definitely a negative sign. Anytime I had to wait for the 3rd date or later the relationship never amounted to anything even if I kept pursuing...even if I did get the kiss later it was a TOTAL waste of time.

Wow...she invited you in then gave you the head turn? ouch...

Hard to say, she may have been cold from the start, or invited you in for some "Coffee"...

As a Ladder Theory Evangelist(TM), let me commend you on a well articulated question. However, jumping ladders only occurs from friends to real, not the other way around. You were always on the friends ladder.

With that said, you have no chance after that kick in the head into the Abyss. Next her and move on to greener pastures.

I think she wanted him to hit it right when they walked in, and since he didn't, he gets the brush off for his crappy attempt right before he left.

Message to OP: She wants it as much or more than you do. You have to convince yourself of this. If you do not, you will never get any.

If she's 14 don't move on just yet...if she is older than 14 move on...

Unless she is super hot...if super hot never give up, follow her around for years for that one moment where she will take you...

Move on buddy. If she wanted to kiss you, she would have done so before the third date. You can't force an attraction to somebody.

My rule: if you don't kiss on the first date, give it up. That relationship will never amount to anything. Either (a) neither of you has the balls to make the relationship work or (b) either one or both of you really doesn't want that type of relationship. Doesn't matter what the reason was for the missed kiss, but the relationship is doomed.

Luckilly, you are only 3 dates in, and you can get out before getting too attached.

We are both 24. She's on vacation for a week, so maybe I'll give it one more go when she gets back and then cut my ties if it doesn't work out.
