TIFU by not making a move

r/

Classic scenario, tale as old as time. I clammed up, and now the Peak Excitement Window has likely closed.

Met a girl I really like – things were scary promising. Maybe scary because of my own personal things, which I’m sure led to the fumble. We went out dancing and… well, I didn’t kiss her at the end of the night. Had the perfect chance and I just got nervous.

All might not be lost – things happen for reasons, all in all. I’m gonna give it time, and maybe the excitement will build back up. Hard not to feel foolish for that moment though… wish I could be more bold.

Maybe she’ll still like me, even though I’m evidently pretty timid. Trying to be confident, I’ve gotten better but only so far. If I’m more confident next time the chance arises… maybe I’ve still got this?

Such is life. I will survive.

tl;dr: could’ve kissed crush, let the chance slip thru my hands like sand. sad about it but not giving up hope just yet !

    Message her if you have her number, tell her you had a great time and try to set up another date.

    Why would you give it time? She’ll probably think you’re not into her if you do.

    If a date goes well I’ll 100% be very disappointed if he doesn’t try to kiss me. I’m too shy to make the first move so that’s not an option 😂. Definitely you should ask her out again if you think it went well, good luck!

    If you’re a guy and you’re actually able to dance well then she’s going to give you another shot.
