    So...
    I'm a week and a couple days away from my first date with a woman.
    I am so nervous about it!
    We have been talking quite a bit online and on Snapchat.. She's really nice and all that. We are going to a museum and and a park. Hopefully it doesn't rain. I am so excited to meet her. But do I try to hold her hand or hug her? How does this work? Help!

    You should hope for rain...and bring only one umbrella... :grin:

    Be yourself and dance the dance, trust me, you'll know what to do...just focus on her and let yourself go.

    Hahaha. Good luck trying to figure that out. All I can say is that each and every woman is different. Some will try to make out with you on the first date, others will be offended if you brush their hand with yours. We're women after all. You have time left, so while chatting ask things like "how do you feel about PDA" or "are you a hand holder". That's usually where I get a basic understanding before a date.

    I like to move slow, so I generally don't touch on a first date until we're parting ways, then maybe I'll ask for a hug. Never a kiss on a first date for me, though.

    I'm pretty much the same I'll give a high on the first date but don't kiss I leave that for date 2 and it gives me and them something to look forwards too.
    You can ask her how she feels about PDA so you know for future reference

    I think I will ask :slight_smile:
    Thanks for the advice. She's great and I can't wait to meet her. I'll update after I meet her on Sunday :slight_smile:
