She'd said, either then or earlier, that she wanted to take it easy after having left a 7 year relationship, and that she'd maybe kiss on the second date.
This was a FLAWLESS DATE.
Flag on the play.
This contrasts with what you've written below. 

In terms of the overall architecture, you did all the big moves.
- Showed her a good time
- Traveled (for time distortion)
- Got her back to your place (isolation @ a sex location)

She teased me once or twice about me getting blue-balled, which I agreed and amplified. I hoped I wasn't coming across as too thirsty.
Now it's getting meta.
What do you mean? She directed our attention to my guitar, which was on the back of my mind anyway, and I thought it rather diplomatic of her to segue away from my failed kiss-close. What I was getting at was that while I was instructing her on technique, she was ribbing me about thinking "Can we just cut through this bullshit and kiss/fuck already." — not inaccurately, of course.

The bold part. Commenting on the date while the date is happening I've never found to be good.
Here, she's taunting you, playing with you.
At the sub-communication level, and maybe her subconscious mind - this is a shit test.
In a situation like this, you break rapport.
Change the topic, stay "handsy", but reduce the sub-communication level.
Basically, you need to find out if whether or not she's going to move towards you, if you move away.
If she's not doing that (and it's clear that she's not)...you're too far down the pike to go back into attraction.
The game is 3 pieces
- attraction - Is she sexually attracted to you (Yes)
- comfort (Is she comfortable with you touching her, is she comfortable touching you) - in this case NO.
- seduction - Closing a chick.
The date *should* have built comfort.
Which is why your initial question was so interesting.
At the bird's eye level, there's not much I'd change in what you did. This looks like one of my dates to be honest.
However, either showing her how you live triggered her into
"he's a possible Boyfriend...but I just got out of a relationship...he's not a guy that I can just fuck....I have to play it cool....I don't want to get hurt again..."
I see a ton of rapport.
I see kino.
I see you sexually escalating, but not being all butt hurt when you don't get what you want.
TIGHT GAME for the most part.
I just don't know about the sub-communications between the two of you.
It's my guess that even though she likes you, could see herself with you, living it up in that nice neighborhood, smoking J's and eating meat pies...- she has learned that she needs to hold back sexually with a guy like that.
That's the case in America more often than not.

This is a problem.
Maybe the date could have been more sexual throughout.
Did the proper thing by pulling back, during the first rejection.
But here you're rewarding her poor behavior.
The date should have ended before you went to 7/11.
I would've come across as a douche for kicking her out for refusing what I (we?) wanted.
Or come across as a whipped bitch for playing along even after not receiving it.
Am I getting this right WIA??

Depends on how you pulled the exit.
When she wanted to go get food and smoke some weed, you needed a plausible excuse to get out of the situation.
The thing is that you already poured a ton of resources into the date, and went back to the place where sex was gonna happen.
Sex didn't happen, but she still wants to be around you.
She needs to feel loss.
Instead you gave her more.
It's a tough thing to do in the moment, but the second she wanted to leave to go do some stuff - that should have been the natural ending point. Even though she wanted you there.
To me, it looks a lot like she was using you. And you didn't get your quid for her pro quo.
Weed smoking bitches are like that in my experience. You're a means to an end, and she'll just play on your desire to get what she wants.
That's a woman in a nutshell, but I swear them black lipped bitches be the worst.

That and the fact that she cut me off while talking a few times at that point made me decide against LTR-ing her up.
LTR should not even be on your brain at this point.
But if you had those thoughts, and basically gave her the grand tour of your place, paid for everything, showed her the town - basically you put yourself in the provider box.
Which means that she can't have meaningless sex with you.
I bought a 6-pack of beer before we met. She paid for the tobacco and pies at 7/11. I generally split the bill on dates, which is the norm here, and which I go even with girls from EE/Asia.

That's rapport, not comfort. Rapport doesn't get you laid, Rapport facilitates you getting into topics and emotions that can get you laid.
One of the comfort/rapport topics I mentioned was our commonality in recently leaving an LTR (mine was a white lie). We connected over similar aftermaths.
Comfort, rapport, breaking rapport, attraction. The game is a fucking complex work of art.

Naw, it's fairly simple on a date. It's complicated with groups at a night club.
the broad strokes (the big actions, the time line)
- You take her out.
- You show her the town
- You get her home.
Stroking the broad is what you do during the broad strokes. (The micro moves)
- you flirt
- you touch, you get handsy
- you escalate
- if she doesn't reciprocate, you chill and try again in a few minutes
When a chick leaves the sex location, she's really trying to defuse the situation. That happened to me 2 years ago, and I"ll never forget it.
My absolute favorite plate, one I've been banging off and on for a decade, recently got engaged. I'd been banging her throughout various boyfriends. Sexually, we click very well. (Personality wise, she always seems to irk me. I can only tolerate her so much)
So I'm in town, and I ring her up. We hang out, and I'm like trying to bang her in *their* bed. Something we'd done before, the kink factor.
She sees me, and is like "That look"...then "let's go out for lunch".
Like a dumb ass, I agreed to it.
Of course we get back, and her sub-communications are basically, we're definitely not having sex.
I should have known what was up the second she broke her pattern, THE PATTERN.
Attraction
Comfort
Seduction
It never changes.
I assumed comfort in this situation, and that was a poor assumption on my part.
Here, you didn't get the real comfort you needed to bang.
But it's not clear to me, that doing the date that you did, that the comfort was not there. Not without poking the cat before we got back home.

It was a great *date*, but not necessarily great in terms of game.
If you find yourself having these amazing heartfelt dates, you're actually playing into what she THINKS she wants. What she actually responds to is a guy that makes her want to fuck immediately.
In your mind, it's a same day lay.
In her mind, it's a whirlwind affair. She was swept up in the moment.

Sure, there was once a time where I was beta enough to fantasise about romantic Prince Charming-esque dating; rollercoasters, caving, kite-flying and picnics gazing lovingly into each others' eyes. Then I realised I wasn't getting what you said in bold. Am I getting there?
Totally agreed. Redesigning your interactions will lead to faster and hotter sex. But a harder style will also "scare the cat" so to speak.
You're probably like me. You want to boil the frog. Get things hot when she doesn't realize it, and oopsie we had sex.

Overall, I'm thinking you were too attentive to her needs. You sort of let her dictate what she wanted, without getting anything from her.
LTR wasn't my intentions with her, maybe friends-with-benefits was. I did want to plant a desire for sex in her ind though.
I'm thinking you gotta go with Roosh's thoughts on this somewhat. This may be the last time you see that girl.
If you make a strong sexual impression, but don't actually bang. She's gone.
If you make a strong LTR/BF impression, she'll make you wait on the bang.
So the strategy is to come off as a non-boyfriend material to forestall that mentality, but also try to bang - if and only if - you know you can.
It's a tight rope, on unicycle, while juggling, if you want perfect situations.

And the escalation was very light verbally, and the physical came at obvious points. (so obvious that she could be on guard for them. Ohh, he's gonna move me into the bedroom to look at his paintings, the kiss is coming soon...)
I thought my compliance was all right? She readily agreed to switching venues, especially to my house, joked lightly about it, responded to kino. In my kitchen she sat at right angles and complied when I told her to sit next to me (pre-kiss-attempt).
I agree my verbal escalation still needs work, lots of it. It shows up during night game more so than Tinder/date game. Where should I look to improve it?
As for my physical escalation, maybe you could spot it from a mile off but again, I thought I did what I could (especially at the playground).
I should add that I've applied much of the first-date bang principles from the forum, calibrated to my own style (I hope).
For example, I was using my paintings as bait, something which is mentioned a lot on RVF. I have a few of those examples at my place but the paintings have gotten me laid twice before — though it must be said that one of those already had sex in mind from the get go and another wanted to kiss me by the first venue.
I had believed that art especially was a panty-wetter even if girls aren't alternative, "Oooh he's good-looking, an engineer, in shape
and he can paint!!!"

I can't fault your thought process. Based on the same facts, I'd probably act the same.

I did have second thoughts about it. I've got mixed ideas on the bolded bit, and again, I'm wondering what I could've could've gone WRT that and what I can do to address that for next time. Was that based on how needy I might've come across?
I may sound unoptimistic but two options
- take her to something completely different
or
- if she wants to hang, make her do the work.
Not because you need to "get back at her", but because you need her to invest.
Part of the problem with paying for stuff on dates, for organizing them, for having shit planned out - is that you as the person doing everything become invested in it.
So if you can get her to invest, put her on the spot, be disappointed when her shit falls flat - that creates something in her.
But how do you get a girl to agree to make you dinner?
And a lot of these chicks nowadays don't have places of their own.

A lot of us condemn girls putting out on the first date as slutty degenerate behaviour, yet I'm in favour of first-date sex as any other — maybe I'm still young and horny, though more (less beta?) impatient than I'd have been in my early-20s. But her saying "she might kiss on the 2nd date" is playing games — especially if she's not pretty enough. Which is which?
For the record, I'd said earlier that she's a high 7. Facially cuter than my previous Tinder bangs (but not matches), with a slim frame. Looking through her FB, she doesn't appear to have been much prettier in her early twenties.
She could have been Noemie Lenoir
Would not have made a difference.

WIA
We've made tentative plans to see each other next week, and I had a feeling that it's more likely to happen than previous Tinder dates whose execution I've fucked up.
Maybe I'm just horny after not having gotten laid for a 1.5 months, and because I'm telling myself my game is increasing such that I can afford to measure my dry spells in weeks not months or years?
Regarding her putting out early: for what it's worth, her feelings about were also along the lines of "We've only just met, I can't do this." More seasoned players recall girls saying this after you've fucked them too.
She's admitted to coming across lots of quality options, and wants to just take it easy(?!). A girl doesn't have to be half as pretty as she is to enjoy that abundance. Having come out of an LTR as she has, these options can be pretty overwhelming.
Again tight rope here.
Last sort of situation where I was with a girl that was iffy.
We went out, I made sure she had fun, then I cut the date short.
She called me in the middle of the night a few days later, but I was already with another chick.
So in terms of tactics, it's not really about leaving her high and dry, but having other chicks in the pipeline.
When you have other chicks in the pipeline, you can actually let 5-6 of these chicks linger on for months before you bang them. You aren't pressed and they can't manipulate you because of that.
Aside from recognizing the signs, and getting better with the flirting/escalation - I would have probably ended up wondering what the fuck just happened. I ran tight game, and this chick is not waking me up in the morning.
good shit otherwise.
