So I’ve been going on dates (probably 6-7 at this point) with this girl from my college. We’re both 19. I really like her, she’s pretty quiet but is really sweet and I think she’s so cute. I wasn’t sure how she felt about me but she’s told me a couple times she likes me a lot. The hard part though is she’s really inexperienced in dating; I’m about 99% sure I’m her first love interest. So, between that and the fact she’s really quiet, she rarely flirts or shows signs of affection. This would normally cause a red flag for me, but it turns out it’s kinda complicated.
One night towards the end of a date I told her how I felt (she’s cute, I love being with her) and when I finished she didn’t say anything. I was super crushed. A few minutes later I just told her I didn’t meant to overstep, but she told me it was okay, she actually felt the same way but got nervous when I said that and froze up. I feel kind of bad because I want her to feel relaxed around me but I think she’s nervous because this is her first time going on dates and stuff. At the same time I get confused with what’s going on because as you can see, her freezing up gives off the vibe she isn’t interested.
I feel like if I can somehow allow her to relax and open up a little bit when we hang out, she’ll have more fun, I won’t get confused, and we can have a better connection. I really like this girl and I want to show my affection and make her happy. Any advice to help me get her to open up?
