Everyone has different types of interaction and connection with each other, and various levels of comfortable intimacy with people. But generally, when you do hit it off with someone, it usually starts off with prolonged eye-contact, deeper and more engaged conversations and a back-and-forth with light flirting, even if it’s just smiling and joking together.
That progresses to more physical contact, hand holding, sitting together/lap sitting, hair touching, usually followed by soft talk and close faces. This is where you can easily gauge your partner’s interest, if they’re reciprocating and seem equally enthusiastic you can quickly move to kissing and suggesting going somewhere more private where you can ask if they want to go somewhere to spend the night or if they rather take it slower. If you find yourself taking the lead, it’s always good to give an “out” and suggest an alternative to going direct to sex. Cuddling, talking in private, watching a movie together, etc. You might feel nervous, but the person you’re with might be even more nervous.
If you’re with the right person, you will reassure each other and find a comfortable pace to progress. If you’re already at this point of touching and kissing, it’s not going to be a deal-breaker at this point to be talk clearly about what you want and to ask if they want the same thing, or to even admit you’re nervous because you’re attracted to them. If you’re with the right person, it should feel fun, you should both start feeling nature take over as you want to get closer together.
