Ok so I'll spare you the details.
Basically I met this girl at work this summer, and we kind of started something (if you can even call it that) right at the end of summer. It's a really long story that I can post if you're interested. Anyways I go to school in a different state, three hours away. She goes to school at the university in the city by where we live.
Anyways we keep in touch quite a bit. According to one of her friends shes been "waiting for me to make a move." I went home over labor day to visit one of my friends, and we hung out the last night I was there, but we were watching a movie in a room full of people, we had a good time, the movie sucked so I got to make fun of it but there wasn't really any oppurtunity to do something, we just sat really close together on the couch. Then when I walked her out as she was leaving she immediately asked when I was going to be back in town again, I told her I didn't know because I don't have a car down at school but I'll let her know next time one of my friends heads up.
So anyways I was talking to her, and it was a jewish holiday that upcoming weekend (she's jewish) and one of my friends was heading up, and I asked her if she was going to be around, and she told me I should come up and visit her even though she was only going to be available on Saturday.
So I did, and it wasn't good. We went to a movie with a couple of her friends, who joked about leaving me and her alone so we could hookup. I was so nervous because I built up this weekend so much in my head as being my one shot to seal the deal (that sentence sounds like it was written in the 50's), that I wasn't being my normal mostly charming self. My only saving grace is apparently (not to sound too self absorbed) I'm hilarious. I don't know how I do it, I just say **** all the time that makes people around me laugh.
I still managed to throw some comments in that night, but it still didn't counteract the overall awkward mood that pervaded the evening.
So when I dropped her off (I know I said I was going to spare details, but believe me this story could be way longer) she said she was really sorry but she was tired, which was believable because she had to get up early to go to temple that day for services, and had told me earlier how she had gotten like 4 hours of sleep the night before. So I walked her to the door, and she let me inside. So we were in her kitchen, and I have no idea what kind of verbal exchange we had, I was probably inside for like 5 minutes tops. I was like "so you are going to bed?" and she told me she was really sorry we didn't get to spend more time together, I told her it was alright and we had an awkard hug, on my way out I asked when she was coming to visit me at school, and she told me to pick the weekend. Then when I talked to her last week she said she was going to "really try" to come and visit me, which I have no idea what that means, maybe I'm overanalyzing semantics here,
I'm not a naturally shy person, I have no trouble talking to girls, alot of my friends are female, and people always think that I have alot more game then I do just because of the way I carry myself and that I get alot of attention. But the truth is I've never had any kind of relationship that could be called a girlfriend. I'm true late bloomer I didn't get any kind of attention from girls beyond friend level until the end of senior year of highschool.
I'm not completely inept with girls, I've hooked up enough. Although it's always been initiated by the girl.
I feel like I should probably let her know that I've never had a girlfriend before, I've never even been on a date, and hence why there was this middleschool-ish awkwardness last saturday. But I'm not exactly sure how I should go about it/phrase it or if that's even a good idea.
I'm not in love with this girl, but I like her. And want to clear things up, and kind of get a better handle on the situation between us. Especially since this really hot girl who goes to school with me randomly told me we should hang out sometime.
