Usually when Im making out with a girl I advance the situation by trying to pleasure her with my fingers (fingering). This involves me unbuttoning her pants and slipping my fingers in to do their magic.

Sometimes when I make my move, the girl resists and doesnt want me to finger her. I was wondering what exactly to do in a situation like this (with a girl that I plan to hook up with again).

It is important for a guy to know three things;
first, that women set the limits or boundaries for how far to go;
second, that she can extend her previous boundary at anytime;
third, guys should manage the relationship by "Implied Consent".
This means that we presume to have her consent. This keeps us
from asking questions like: "can I....", "do you....", "should I...."
If she does not then she will inform you verbally, or non-verbally.

To answer your question, above, by attempting to finger her, you reached a boundary. BACK OFF, and continue making out up to this point.** Now, having said that, how are you to know when she decided to extend the boundary sometime in the future? Simple, by trying ever so briefly to go past the previous boundary. If she does not stop you, then continue as if having consent implied until reaching her new limit. And, so it goes.

Should I try to convince her to let me? I feel like this can make me feel too needy (def not something that girls like) but I also feel like it can work.

No. Just work within her boundary and when she is more comfortable with you, the relationship, herself, she will likely extend the boundary to include something more intimate. Just hang in there and periodically test the boundary--but not every time or this will make her mad, as well as you seeming to be both needy and demanding.

Or should I just wait till next time?

How about two or three times after next time.

Will a girl think im playing it cool by giving up as soon as she resists or will she think im being a wussy?

She will think more highly of you and respect you, both of which will help build her confidence in you.

Please note: When I say "try to convince her" I mean by doing it in a light and non forceful (even humorous) manner. I am not a neanderthal.

Your concern shows this. Just play it cool and if there is to be more intimacy, it will come in due course and within a time frame that is comfortable for her.

I just want to know what's an effective strategy to use to progress from making out to more serious sexual contact.

Read up on IC and use it for all aspects of your relationship. In additon to the link, above, please do an Advanced Search of the forums using my name and the term "Implied Consent" for discussions on how this method operates. It can be implemented for all aspects of a relationship, not just the romance department. Please do not misunderstand. Of course you should ask questions when it comes to choices or preferences that are important to her and the two of you. You need information in order to guide a relationship and to decide what activities to pursue, etc. Once you have her input on a particular matter, then IC is used primarily as described.

I also recommend reading some of the dating articles listed in the Index.

** As discussed in one or more of the how-to articles on making out, the best method is to kiss and caress in a progressive manner. Doing so instills comfort and builds her confidence in you and what you are doing. Furthermore, a progressive all inclusive approach builds each person's level of arousal, excitement, expectation, and, sexual tension.

Using your description of events, if you attempted to finger her before working up to this level of intimacy by first grazing over the area with your fingers on the outside of her clothing, then slipping inside the waistband, then unfastening her pants and tentatively grazing over the outside of her panties beginning near a perimeter and ever so slowly advancing closer to her Pubic Mound and upper Vulva, then you are not building her comfort level systematically. Make your moves slowly as well as in small progressive increments.

This method is also important when it comes time for breast play and transitioning from "Petting" to "Heavy Petting" in which the breasts are incrementally and progressively exposed, fondled, and, stimulated.

For Men and Women Only- Breasts and Play

When you stated that you "slip your fingers in to do their magic", did you mean inside her pants, shorts, or skirt; or, inside her under ware? If the latter, then back up, slip your hand out from the inside to caressing this area on the outside of her panties and consider this her present boundary.

When I said to "back off", you need only back up a little bit. Give her time to become accustomed to this level of intimacy and to become comfortable with what you are doing and the feelings and sensations she is experiencing.
