Hey Doc,
I’m a big fan of your column. I was left confused by one of my most recent dating experiences and was wondering if you could coach me.
I met Brooklyn about a year ago through a group of people we hang out with. She’s very pretty and classy. When I met her she had a boyfriend, so I didn’t make a move. I didn’t really hang out with her a lot either. We talked a little bit at some social events, but I spent most of my time hanging out with other people. I found out about a month ago that she had broken up with her boyfriend. I hung out with her in a smaller group a couple times to watch her signals. They were good, so I asked her out. There was a very slight hesitation, but she said yes.
First date went great. Brooklyn had her hand on my knee, held my hand, did most of the talking, and showed a lot of curiosity and interest. We laughed a lot and had a great time. We even kissed, although looking back I may have made it a bit too short. She essentially asked me out on a second date the following week. I said I had to check my schedule and that I’d give her a call in a couple days.
I called her three days later and she sounded excited about the date. She called me the next day and invited me to go to a restaurant event the group we met through was having. I had already planned on going and I told her that. So I went to the dinner. I wasn’t sure how she would react in a group, so I held back from the physical stuff although I talked mainly to her. We had a good time.
The next day Brooklyn called me and said she didn’t want to date anymore. She said she didn’t feel a connection with me and asked me if I felt the same way. I said no, I had a lot of fun on our dates. She said the first date was really fun, and it made her sad because we have so much in common.
Doc, where did I make the mistake that caused her Interest Level to drop, or did I misread it initially?
