I am awfully shy and he is sweet, 4 dates. No kiss. Haven’t heard from him for couple days since last date but I invited him over for 5th date during the day, hoping it will help escalate. Was this a bad idea? I really want him!

Yes. Haven't heard from him for a couple of days is a no. Your person will not make you wait for days. If you have to nudge or want to escalate, you are forcing it. Be with the person who feels natural. You don't want to fall for lovebombers either as I have.

He agreed to come over for 5th date. I think I need to make out right

Yes because it all builds on each other and foundationally changes how you view, understand, and navigate dating

I didn't have my first kiss until date 5 with the guy I'm seeing now but we messaged all throughout the day every day starting with date 1. He's actively pursuing and planning and was tentative with getting physical until we dove deeper on how we aligned on each of our personal goals based on our past relationship triggers. If he's not pursuing, cut your losses. Your real person won't have you in your head questioning everything. You've got this!

Hm he jsut says yes to everything but slow

I disagree, if you’re shy it could appear to be disinterested. Dating is hard, reading minds is harder. It’s important to look inward while dating as well, to ensure our interest, communication etc is aligning with where we are at. And that’s the most difficult for the shy girlies (me included).

Yea I think all my nerves didn’t share proper view of who I am.

While I encourage women to take lead, I also have learned this the hard way. If he wants to he will. If he wants you he’ll reach out. If he wants to he’ll text. If he wants to, he 100% will.
