Second Date, no kiss...

    Hi Everyone,
    I recently started dating a guy I met online. Our first date went great and we really clicked, lots in common, etc. We ended up spending the whole day together!

    Anyway, last night we went on our second date. We went for a walk, had something to eat and then went to see a movie. We saw a movie as part of our first date too. And both times he has reached over to hold my hand.

    Both dates have ended with a hug.

    I'm really interested in this guy so I'm wondering what I should do next. We've been texting each other every day since we met. I was wondering if I should drop a hint saying something like I was disappointed that he hasn't kissed me yet or if I should just let things develop naturally.

    We have plans to see each other again this weekend.

    I'd really appreciate any advice. :)

    Both dates have ended with a hug.

    Surely it's a 50/50 decision as to how to end it? He's being polite / shy perhaps, and would prefer that you indicated a willingness for an alternate ending? Make his day for him!

    Be at peace,

    Z

    If you've seen eachother twice and it's gone well I would say he's probably dying to kiss you but might suffer from nerves. I remember a couple of years back I was seeing a girl in a similar situation to you and we clicked on every level, we hadn't met from online dating, we just had the same circle of friends and constantly found eachother alone together at parties, attracted to eachother but due to my own nervousness never really going for it. If you find yourselves sitting close to eachother you might totally put him at ease by lightly mentioning it, something along the lines that you're surprised you haven't kissed eachother yet. I used to be very shy and remember so many occasions when the moment was right to kiss girls but for my own nerves I didn't go through with it. If you're both comfortable, close to each other, a little eye-contact and a hint would probably go a long way, let him know he doesn't need to fear rejection.

    Always the guy having to make the first move... :rolleyes:

    I agree with zen, make the lad's day at the end of the next date (or earlier in the date if situation allows)

    Lob the gob! Seriously, just kiss him! He wouldn't text you so much and want to see you again if he didn't like you, so just kiss him. Shouldn't have to be men making the first move in this day and age!

    If you want a kiss then make a move. It shouldn't always be up to the guy. If you have had two dates and a third organised plus holding hands and hugs, he's interested. So on your next date pucker up and plant one on him.

    Relax - didn't even kiss my gf either on the first two dates . (Met her on OD ) Then came the third date - ahem . All I'll say is we are still together over a year later . Guys aren't slow about kissing dates because they don't like them - we take our time because we DO like them !

    He might be quite shy OP or waiting for the right moment (and when he is feeling brave enough :D). Either make the first move or make it VERY obvious that you want him to kiss you. By very obvious, I mean ask him is he ever going to kiss you :D
