I’m tired of games …

...See more So I met a girl been dating for a while. I invited her to my hotel room after a great night out with my other friends. She spent the night with me the first night & the second night she made an excuse to be with me, I spent alot of money on our date night and I feel like something is keeping her from spending more intimate time with me & idk what to do. Of course I care about her and I don’t want her thinking it’s all about having sex but idk how to feel. She rejected me after a night with me after an awesome night out & I’m tired of spending so much money on this girl who I don’t even know if she will reach out to me. The last few dates I’ve been spending everything on her and she tells me she’s not ready for a relationship just yet but she told me she likes me. I like this girl and I wish things would work out but I don’t know how to approach this. I made it clear to her I’m interested in her but she told me she’s trying to see how everything goes. Idk how to approach this person. I feel really disappointed after she didn’t want to spend another night with me. How should I approach this?

Should I be the one texting first all the time? What should I do?

...See more I’ve met this girl who I went on a 3rd date with. I’ve kissed her and done other stuff and I had really fun dates with her. She really enjoyed herself & has always let me know certain days she’s busy & can’t hang out with me. I usually try to not text her all day because I don’t want to overdo it. There has been times where I would text her and she ended up leaving me on read a few times & I always thought to keep it to a minimum so I don’t annoy her. I make it obvious when we hang out that I’m interested in her, although I don’t want to always be the first one to initiate the conversation. I usually will send her a good morning text or text her something about our date. Lastly, I sent her a message wishing her a great morning and talked about how much of a great time I had with her. She heart reacted to my text on the iMessage & hasn’t said anything since. I know she told me she was going to be busy with a friend today but I always get the urge to want to text her when it’s been all day I haven’t heard from her. Is it smart to allow her to initiate a conversation with me sometimes too? I haven’t texted her all day. I wonder how long should I wait to receive a text from her. I made up in my mind to not text her until she reaches out to me. I’m interested, but I also want her to do a little work and reach back out to me too. I don’t want to be chasing her & appearing too needy. I also don’t want to give her power over me. I plan on talking to her about it in person telling her why I couldn’t get a text back from my last message. Is this the right strategy? Is it okay to wait for her to message me? I’ve made it completely clear I’m interested in her.
