Ngl this sounds game goofy.
The woman your describing seems like she would have been dtf way earlier but you hesitate to escalate seemingly habitually. I don't know where this delusion came from but you're too old to seriously still be believing that wanting to have sex with a woman on date/meeting X makes you thirsty. Being needy or pressed makes you thirsty.
Correlation doesn't equal causation. You're talking as if playing patient mr nice guy is what got you the drawls but she could have just been into you the entire time and would have done it night 1. No woman fantasies about having to straight up say the quiet part out loud on some "dude, do you even WANT to fukk me? ". Thats the opposite of sexy (for them).
Women and men want to feel desired by one another. A woman stringing you along 10 dates and not wanting to fukk for whatever reason (in the era of women fukking on the first date/meeting no less) doesn't imply desire no matter what excuses someone makes. Especially if you're looking to take a relationship serious, at what point could you consider it a precursor to a loveless/sexless marriage?
You get what you accept. I dealt with only 1 situation like this (5 dates) and the only reason I tolerated it that long is because I had other options rolling and there was some chemistry. She had let it slip she had gave it up in previous situations, why would I put up with anyone perceiving me as less than worth being treated as any man would want if it's not a chastity issue? If you're hosting, paying and entertaining yet still feeling ungratified then its net negative. I could be spending that time with a woman who actually wanted me and so I did.
I encourage any man to do the same. " know your worth" isn't just for women
She still hits me up like once a year to probe I guess, I stopped replying in courtesy like 2 years ago.
