Hello everyone, I hope you’re all doing great. I have a question: did I mess things up with this plate, or should I just consider it broken?
I’ve been seeing this girl, 23 years old, for about five months. She’s a real virgin, shy, feminine, and assertive. For those five months, I basically put her on a pedestal. My morality kept telling me not to escalate, thinking that since she’s a virgin, it wouldn’t lead anywhere and would be a waste of time, even though I know that AWALT.
Despite the clear high interest she was showing me, I kept it cool and made no move. Recently, I finally decided to escalate with kino and kisses, and she was receptive. But after the second time, she said she wanted to talk.
She told me she wasn’t expecting things to go that far, especially since we had known each other for five months and I hadn’t made a move until now. She also mentioned that I come off as a bit arrogant and hard to deal with, probably because I’ve been maintaining my frame and giving her only occasional validation. She added that she just wants to enjoy her time, because i mentionned in the past that I wasn’t looking for anything serious at the moment, which in hindsight I probably shouldn’t have said.
Honestly, she’s right. Waiting that long to escalate was a weak move on my part. I tried to cover it by saying “good things take time,” and she just laughed and accepted it . But deep down, I feel like I triggered her anti-slut defense, and now I’m wondering if it’s best to walk away from this and accept that the plate is broken.
Morality wasn't the problem. You simply lacked the confidence needed to escalate. That you lacked this confidence for five months is a bit alarming.
Consider investing into a reliable ready reference you can pick up and study to better prepare yourself for engaging the opposite sex. I'd suggest that you get yourself a copy of Doc Love's "The System: The Dating Dictionary". Doc Love, who until his passing was also known as Tom Hodges, wrote a weekly advice column that's archive is mirrored on several mens focused sites and a podcast. His media is a bit pricey, but it's a solid foundation a guy can branch out from in RP aware circles. I'd suggest you review his advice column to decide if his view on dating and relationships is aligned with what you aspire for yourself. To save yourself a search, give this scribed link a gander to find out if his book is something you'd like to add to your library. It should also be available on libgen.

As Yogi Berra once quipped, "Nostalgia ain't what it used to be. " this would make a great car to drive in the local Friday Night Cruise, where it could probably achieve 14 blow jobs to the gallon.
But if I was planning a drive from LA to San Francisco, Vegas, or even just San Diego, I'd find even a 25yo Camrry preferable, and would arrive in much better spirits. The nicest of 60s cars are loud, hot, and uncomfortable, which really takes a toll after 100 long miles.
@Typo-MAGAshiv OK, would you believe YUGE numbers- absolutely unbelievable; nobody's ever seen anything like it!..?
@Vermillion-Rx by smooth, do you mean "holding frame as thousands post videos of themselves burning their MAGA hats?"
@Chantfire beautiful museum piece, but compared to modern cars, those old lead sleds make miserable transportation devices. Speaking as one who started a professional mechanic career in the mid 80s when they were still plentiful on the road in a wide range of conditions.
Oh my... I'm reading that Trump is going to send "offensive" weapons to Ukraine because "he is angry". Apparently, his plan to end the war in a week or so didn't go very well, so now he's going to show them. Go daddy!
Tiresome, Republican supporters pretending bombing Iran is somehow not an act of war. Iran, a country still in cooperative compliance with the treaty Trump backed out of and open to regular IAEA inspections. Attacking with Israel, a country NOT in compliance with non proliferation treaty despite actually possessing hundreds of nuclear weapons. Trump pretended to be in active negotiations as a cynical cover for the impending planned attack, which BADLY hurt US credibility in the world's eyes.
As for the alleged gun attack on ICE agents, look at how all the PEACEFUL demonstrations against ICE raids have gotten ignored and openly scoffed at by Trump and his followers, yet when someone dares to finally shoot BACK, you all clutch your pearls and talk about Rule of Law.
It's a microcosm of our Imperial excesses in the middle east, arming and supporting a genocide then crying Rule of Law when Houthi take action and sink Israel bound or related ships. SAME people who scoffed at countless peaceful college protestors and actively silence them by kicking them off all social media and expel the without refund, But Cry Rule of law when ships and cargo get targeted.
Make peaceful protest impossible, make violent revolution inevitable!!!

- Unmistakable signs of cognitive decline, from rambling nonsensical tweets, to embarrassing responses in press conferences, notably the one about arms shipments to Ukraine where the reporter called out his inconsistent statement and he responded by confidently saying the opposite of it.
Kamala Whether Other Party would have proven better holds no bearing on the question asked.
Invoking that, represents a cope on the individual level, and a manipulation tactic on the Party level. Note that it led you to stop at the Epstein question thus ignoring multiple other serious issues already emergent this early in his term.
- Imperial Ricochet, putting heavily armored troops on our own streets. Using said troops against harmless and powerless working people, not "worst of the worst criminals " as promised
- not stopping wars on day one, but dropping 7+ figures on new ones
- adding massively to the deficit and transferring wealth from working to ruling class
