Dating tips please

[duckduck]

I'm 19, i met a girl online and we decided to meet up for a dog walk as be both have a dog. All good, we met up every week since, after a few weeks I invited her out for dinner but she only wanted friendship. I was cool with this, friends are important. We continue to meet up weekly (probably for around 2 months now) and she has now asked if I still wanted to take her out...

So tips please! All the tips online for dates focus on meeting someone for the first time, obviously I already know her so of limited use.

How do we move from a friendship to more?

Just continue to build on the foundation that has developed over the time you have spent together. You are already friends, you are just adding different kinds of activities to your schedule. Continue to be the same guy that walks your dog with a friend walking her dog as you sit down for a meal, go to a movie, go bowling, or whatever. Relax, have fun, be
yourself. As I see it you have been dating this person for two months and seems the both of you are ready to spend time together without your dogs. Enjoy!

Yeah I guess - how do I make it more date like than friends hanging out though - there's no physical contact for example. This is my first proper experience if you haven't guessed ahaha

My ideal date feels like really good friends hanging out having a fun and good time doing it. A touch, a squeeze of hands, a gentle hug all come in good time as the relationship transitions from good friends to special friends, to boyfriend girlfriend status. It happens over time between two people who have fun hanging out together. Relationships evolve over time. Go for the fun of doing things that you both enjoy and see what happens. Have fun and enjoy!

Thanks - makes sense!

Completely disagree with what has been said, and get why you don't want it to feel like there is no chemistry. At the same time, forcing anything may just make it awkward.

Try turning the conversation deeper, nudge against her when you are walking, be subtle but be yourself.

You haven't been dating her, you've just been friends - big difference.

Good luck

Aww cute. Good luck man. I wish u all the ebst.
As for tips...have a nice conversation, be yourself, offer to walk her home, quick kiss, hug at the door (IF she agrees. Don't initiate unless ur sure she wants to). GL

I agree with Clara here.

ClaraWho do you want to team up with me to start a thread to help guys understand the gap between how women classify friends from potential romantic material.

I'm getting the sense that guys think more linear about the socialization dance, while for girls it's not that simple.

I keep seeing a pattern of guys being blindsided by how their great friendship can't cross the gap into boyfriend material, if trust is already there and everyone keeps saying trust is the most important part of a relationship.

My ex girlfriend and I got to know each other before we met each other in person. We were friends online and when we finally got to see each other we were pretty much dating. She kissed me on the first date, that is why I am not a fan of online dating because sometimes things can move too fast. One minute you are instant messaging each other online, next she is making coffee for you after an adult sleep over. (We shared a bed, nothing happened)

If you still like her, then take her out, she obviously likes you. Be careful though, as it seems she doesn't like to move fast, be sure to take things slow and don't make any sudden moves.
