I've been on a couple of dates with a really sweet girl. It seems we connect nicely on a personality level. It all feels very natural.
We went out last night and things were going so well.
She invited me into her home which was quite unexpected and showed me all the things she's been doing until now, it seems she wanted me to understand her life and her passions. She took a shower before we headed out to our date location.
Once we were on our way, she suddenly grabbed me and pulled me in for a huge hug whilst we were walking to our next destination.
It was a pretty obvious green light, so we went to a romantic bar and did lots of hugging, her head on my shoulder and etc.
She kept telling me she feels so comfortable with me and safe and that she fits perfectly on my body.
The whole way back to her place we held hands and various other things.
When the time came to say goodbye, we exchanged more hugs and I thought screw it, it feels like a good moment and gently went in for a kiss.
However she got flustered, said sorry and turned it into a hug instead and buried her face in my neck/shoulder.
I didn't react I just squeezed her a bit more and told her it's okay no pressure.
I admittedly felt a bit bummed but played it off smoothly, it's clearly not rejection. Once I left her place, She texted me thanking me for making her day.
So now, my thoughts are, when meet again, I shouldn't push anything. It seems she's the one to make the next move when she feels ready.
Until now she's initiated the first major escalations such as hugging.
Would I be right in holding back a bit and waiting for her to escalate or give more obvious signal, since she seems to make moves? Or should I try again at a better time?
