Question for the girls about dating

[Tesserax]

Hi! I'll get straight to it.

So I just went on a date with a girl and it went pretty well I think. We had a good time, watched a good movie, ate good food, and then had a good chat about things. But I'm wondering if I missed something.

See, I'm still very nervous about dating, so I'm not sure what is expected. I walked her to the train station, we hugged, and went out separate ways.

So the question is, should I have just kissed her? I felt the urge to do so, but I wasn't sure about how she would receive it. I'm not very good with knowing what's acceptable to do and when, which is why I ask.

So, ladies, when you daye somebody new, when do you want them to hold you hand or kiss you, and how do you notmally show it? She seemed to enjoy her time, but I don't know what our exact friendhip status is. I'm just worried that, while we both enjoyed it, nothing will come of it and we'll just be friends.

When should I make a move, and how should I do it? I don't want to ruin my chances by either waiting too long or rushing too soon so I need your help on this one.

Thanks girls, I owe you one 😊

It's a situation where you need to read her body language, you go in slow, and you sense if she is tensing up or not and she'll contribute or she'll put distance between the attempted kiss.

I mean, in doubt, go slow, right? I'm wondering about that hug of yours, was it awkward because either party was expecting something different (either more or less)? It depends a lot on the other person too, some may warm up to you quickly and others slowly. Sometimes the best course of action is following your "gut" feeling and doing you, man.

She initiated 2 hugs. One as we were about to depart, but then I decided to accompany her to the train station and we hugged again. It was a nice hug :3

As a post said before, read her body language and that's probably your best bet. If you go in slowly to kiss her and she tenses up it's fair to say she didn't want to kiss you just yet. If that's the case you should apologise to try and settle her a little (if she's anything like me).

With the holding of the hands thing, hold your hand out to her for her to take it and if she doesn't yet again she's probably not ready for it. Depending on the girl, they could be ready to hold hands after a couple dates, or immediately. You never know...
