Sometimes when you're trying to move quickly with a girl, she'll stop and seem to think. This deliberation never goes in your favor; the longer you stand and wait doing nothing while she stands there deliberating, the worse your position gets by the second.
You can tell when she's thinking by watching her eyes; typically when the eyes slip to their lower right corners (that'll be to your left if you're face-to-face with her), she's in auditory digital, or internal self-talk. You want to snap her out of AD as quickly as possible, but pushing her here is only going to raise her defenses.
What you WANT to do is run a pattern interrupt on her mid-thought process, so get her to voice her thoughts. Ask her, "What are you thinking?" to get her to start telling you what's on her mind. Once she does, you can ask her questions about it, e.g.
Once she's out of AD and talking out her objections with you, you can properly address them. You'll never properly address them when they're in her head, so get them out and vocal if you want to not be stuck standing there wondering what went wrong.

- You: Come on, let's get out of here.
Her: [thinking, AD]
You: What are you thinking? Tell me what's going on in there.
Her: I was just thinking that I like you but I'm not ready for this.
You: You mean a nightcap?
Her: I mean going home with you.
You: You're ready for it. You're in complete control; you call the shots. You can stay as long as you like or leave as early as you like. The only thing I care about is you having an amazing night.
Her: I'll have a MORE amazing night if we stay here.
You: [looking around] [laughs] You will NOT have a more amazing night here. Come on, we're going. Can we go now? [hold out your hand to her]
Her: Okay, but JUST for 30 minutes.
You: Cross my heart. Unless you want to stay more.
Her: Okay, let's go.
