I just emailed her an invite to see a live musical comedy called Nunsense this Friday. The plays I've seen there before have been spectacular so I think it'd be a good date if she goes for it. Crossing my fingers

I've been frequenting a bar in town pretty much every friday night for a few months. I go mostly for the live bands that play there, and I'll admit it, to get hammered. Hey, it's the only me night I get. Not really there for dating cause for me, it's the wrong scene.

There is this one girl there I've taken a liking to though. Not the type you would normally find in a bar. She writes books, is a teacher, is intelligent, my age, and good looking. We talk quite a bit & she seems to enjoy my company as much as I do hers. I've seen her there maybe three or four times.

Well tonight we hit it off well again & she invites me over to her place under the premise of playing Trivial Pursuit (don't ask cause I don't exactly remember how that came up in the first place). Anyways, I hang out at her place pretty late (or early, depending on how you look at it), talking and actually playing trivial pursuit. We both filled up half the pie & called it quits.

It was a fun & flirty atmosphere the whole night but neither of us really made any moves. Well, I did when I left by giving her a long hug & kiss but that was all. I know there could have been more but I didn't go there. Why?

I mean, we met at a bar, the gal invites me over to her place after, we both like each other; any other guy my age would have pounced on the opportunity. Most men my age have probably have had ten to twenty sexual partners by now or more. Me; and I feel like such a prude to say it; I've only had two.

Was with my ex-wife for nine years then after we split, was in another relationship for almost a year that ended not too long ago. So basically I've never been in anything other than a committed relationship & don't know, and not sure I want to know the dating scene. Plenty nymphos out there this day & age that would probably be best for me to stay away from.


I really have no idea on how fast or slow to take things. I guess it all depends on the people involved & what kind of relationship they're after. I just don't know what people expect dating nowadays.

Does a gal at a bar inviting a guy back to her place = sex?
Does not having sex in this situation = prude, disappointment, friend zone

I know it sounds strange coming from a guy in his twenties but I would rather build a relationship before sex. Sometimes I feel this concept is so alien to people now, that I may not have hope in the dating scene the way it is.


You of course need to do what makes you feel comfortable.
My personal opinion is that she did not invite you to her place to play Trivial Pursuit.
This does not mean you can not have a successful relationship!!
I would wonder how many other men she has invited to her place to play Trivial Pursuit. If that part is ok with you than there should be no problems.
People may criticize my response here but this is my take on the situation.

Yes, I do also wonder if it is a common occurrence for her to bring guys back to her place, another big reason why I'm taking it slow & wanting to get to know what she's about. Personally, women being too forward about sex early in the relationship turns me off. I'm looking for a LTR, not just sex

Your story is really cool, and I don't think you are a prude. flowerforyou

You mentioned your last GF threw herself at you, and I admit that I've been aggressive before if the chemistry was so hot your skin melted. It's hard to fight that BUT it's also fun to wait -- and enjoy each other; holding hands, little smooches, and giggles.

Take your time, and I think we all wish you the very best with your situation. :banana:

Don't start what-ifing this lady's choices. If you would have fallen out of character she would have told you to get out. You acted like a gentleman and she acted like a lady.

Do you really care if she screwed no guys or half of the 9th fleet before she walked into your life and made you feel 10 feet tall? Yea history means something and maybe asking someone she watched in the bar was a little dicey but maybe she saw something good in you and waited until she thought you had enough respect for her to come to her home and have a much better night than you would getting smashed in a bar and going home alone.

If she is willing to give you a chance don't let snide stupid remarks and macho doubts creep in and screw this up. You don't have to be a manho to be a man and you don't have to be a perfect angel to be a good woman.

I'm very selective in who I would date. If I didn't feel we had potential then I wouldn't be taking this further.
