Advice on girl friend please :)

So I am dating this girl and I like her a LOT. The problem is that I am a bit shy. So, my question is how do I know when it is right to make the next move/ HOW do I make such a move? We have been dating almost a month and we have not kissed yet, nor have we held hands. Every time we walk together, she is always holding SOMETHING.

I don't want to rush the kissing thing, but it would be nice too... Help please?

ok hold hands first. if she is holding something, offer to carry it for her so you both have a free hand, if not loop arms and i know things will go on from there ;)

Hmm...
To me it doesn't sound like you are really close to this girl. By always holding something do you mean like a bag or her phone? Because if its her phone it pretty much shows that she cares more about texting or telling others about her life then she does you, and that is not okay. In a good relationship, even if you are a little shy, she should be the one to instigate things too. It sounds like she thinks that your supposed to provide for the relationship, and that like you need her to survive, which you shouldn't.

If it isn't this way though on the other hand just forget your fears and go for it. I mean you are going out so its not like she won't be expecting to kiss you or hold hands, especially at 15.

Put your arm around her. Go for her hand. If she hesitates or questions for any reason, be pushy. Polite-fully and playfully pushy of course.

Just be cool and roll with the punches. If it comes to it, just talk to her about it.

as others have said, if she is holding something, offer to carry them, then hold her hand. if you walk her home, give her a kiss (nothing major) as she goes to her door/gate

when you feel the time is right to kiss her properly, you will know :)

Will is totally right. You should, to be in a relationship, be closer emotionally. Don't worry about the physical side just yet, the mere fact that you haven't held hands yet is disconcerting. You should try talking to her more alone, get closer to her otherwise the relationship will come to nothing.
