Girls acting cold after a few dates
I hope someone can give me some insight on this because it's been bothering me a lot lately.

So this one girl I've been dating for a month now. She messaged me first, I noticed she's interested and asked her out on a date. We had a good time, the the second date comes, the third and about 10 days after the fourth date she completely stops messaging me. When I message her the replies are short and bland. It feels like messaging me is a burden to her. I'm not that annoying clingy guy that messages her every morning wishing her all the best but it still ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hurts. On our dates we always had a good time, lots of laughing, touching. When I last dropped her off we were making out in my car for like half an hour. She told me she's been waiting for this for months (she noticed me in April last year and wanted to message me then, but we only started dating in December after she replied to my ig story). Yeah I also stopped messaging her because it hurts.

I guess my question is why would she act so interested in me then all of a sudden become cold and distant.
My plan is to not message her anymore , but if she messages me first I'll gladly continue with this.

Wait and see plan is perfect for this case. She could be very busy with life, but tbh I'm not gonna bet my money on this. Have one foot out the door.

Partner problems = Ask the partner 🤷‍♀️

However, I would not give it that much importance, I do not see anything like rly bad happening ,but at the end of the day the best solution is to talk togather about It v:

Making out & saying it's what she was waiting for might indicate she wanted more than that. I don't want to know more about your date but based on what's been said that is what it might look like from this side of things. I hope all the best
She did say she wants to be together, to which I said I also feel that way. If by "more than that" you mean sex, then no. She never indicated towards that.

I assumed this too which is why I don't wanna keep messaging her.
If she really likes me and wants to pursue this, she's free to message me anytime. If you like someone you'd do anything to for that person, there's no excuse.

Untie her for a few hours and let her walk around the basement for a while.

there are plenty of ways to say it and indicate it, you may not have gotten the message and she might be thinking that's not what you wanted after all, she becomes disappointed and decides not to keep going, especially since you seemed as interested as she did of wanting more.

now you are suggesting she comes running back to you because you may not have read between the lines. if you are serious about keeping it going, don't let time and distance get in the way, or stupid assumptions. talk to her sooner rather than later about this issue that may or may not exist or she will get the idea altogether you were never really interested and she will have moved on and you'll likely never be contacted again.

if i were in your position i wouldn't let stubborn pride get in the way and i would make the effort to reach out and and show her that i was serious about wanting to be with her, even if it means enduring some pride swallowing and a little embarrassment along the way. if that's not your sort of thing, then move along and find another girl.

It's pretty common for people to have sex by the third date, so you might be taking things too slow if you're just getting around to kissing her by now. Also, she has been waiting for months? If you go on a date every two weeks, you should've only been dating for six weeks by the fourth date, considering that the first date happens at 0 weeks. Plus it sounds like you went another ten days without arranging another date.

Sounds like you might be taking things too slow. People treat like with like, so if she thinks you're disinterested in her, she'll act disinterested in you. Mind you, I'm not saying you should have to rush by the milestones, but you might want to pick up the pace of dating a little at least, if the time and budget permits. Have her thinking about you and the good times you have more often, and have more opportunities to progress the relationship naturally. You have to find that balance between being too clingy and being too aloof, and my reading of the situation based on the details provided is that you are exercising too much trepidation.

I forget where I found this poll[poll.fm] but it seems to indicate people generally like seeing each-other twice per week if possible. Granted, that might be due to a lack of options greater than one week, but that also seems to be the consensus on this okay cupid reddit thread.

A few months seems like a little long to only have four to me, but if we're talking a time frame that can be described in a plurality of months, I think you probably should've been on more than four dates by now.

Seems to me like it would've been the perfect opportunity to ask if there has been anything else she had been waiting for, although that moment has passed and it'd be weird now that the special moment and opening has passed.

She just felt there was no future with you.
It's nature. Don't bother. Cause she won't.
And all the stuff about messages makes it messy.
Everyone has a self interpretation of messages and mailing/chat' management.

Stop messaging her full stop and and go out and actually start talking via that mouth we all have.

You were too easy. You gotta be what they want but can't have. Ie; stop messaging and calling girls. That's their job.
