Straight girls - if you were going on a date with a guy you just met, how would you want to be treated?
So, I met this girl on a dating website and she's really cute, lives nearby me and we have mutual friends that we never knew about. I don't know much about her other that that though. I want to make a good impression on her and, if everything goes well, would love to kiss her at the end of the night.
So, my question for straight girls out there is this. How would you want to be approached by a guy you just met online? Would you want him to just be nice, polite, and himself? Or would you rather he put moves on you and was more assertive. I don't want to come off as weak to this girl and I also don't want to come off as a jerk. So, what would your ideal experience be?
Every detail counts and I need all the advice I can get, so thanks in advance.
Chill - Thx for the good luck, I'm not stressed really I just want this to go well. Need a healthy balance.
emma - Thank you so much! I guess the key is just to be chill and calm and let the night take its course, feel it out, and do what feels right. This girl isn't crazy with texting. Full sentences, proper spelling, an occasional smiley. So, I'll do what feels natural and definitely will try to hold her hand at some point during the night.
Sophie - thank you!!! I definitely won't just sit there and nod my head the entire time, that's not me. I want the night to be fun, relaxed, and as stress free as possible.
Pixie - thanks all these answers are so helpful. I'm not too worried about things, it should be fun.
Dandelion - its good to do what your told. great job.

As someone who spent a year on a well-known dating site I have a bit of imput on this. If you meet at a bar, don't get drunk or tipsy, if you need a drink to relax a little one is perfectly acceptable. (Met up with a guy who got waisted and kept trying to make-out. Eww)
Be yourself! There is nothing more disappointing when using a dating website then getting to know someone online, and meeting someone else in person!! Been there, done that. It's incredibly frustrating. And a huge turn off. Don't try too hard and thus make a fool of yourself.
Does this girl text a little dirty? If so she probably does want you to kiss her at the end if the night, but feel it out, if she lingers a bit lean in and see if she does too. She'll pull away if she does not want to kiss you. (I did with above meationed drunk-guy )
If she texts very conservatively then you really need to read her body language at the end of the night when it comes to the maybe-goodnight-kiss. Most conservative girls want to wait until the second or third date for the kiss. (I feel the need to clarify that they may not want to wait, but to respect themselves and the possible future of the relationship, they may not want to later recoil the story as "we totally made-out on the first date!")
You will not come off as weak if you don't kiss her. She may think you don't like her if you don't at least hug her goodbye or try to hold or touch her hand at some point in the evening tho. I know it's hard to distinguish between dislike and respect, but just pay attention to her reactions throughout the evening, but don't have tunnel vision focused on the kiss. If you do, you probably won't hear a single thing she says and then you'll have no idea how the night went, and how to approach the goodbye.
Hope this helped!

Don't be too forward because that could give her the impression you're after her for sex. But like you said, don't risk getting friend-zoned by being too "polite". Still be nice, but make sure to joke around and flirt too. It's proven that if you can make a girl laugh, she's way more likely to be sexually interested in you. Good luck. Just by her saying "yes" to the date should put you at ease. I'm sure she's just as nervous to impress as you are. Definitely squeeze in a hug around the waist and a kiss at the end.

Well, Just to be safe. Try not to go "pervert" on her, Haha! It's always good if she feels safe around you and you are not one of those pedophiles after her. Be yourself and treat her nicely, Warn her at times so you seem tough if you want. Like "Oh, If any guy would come up to you and treat you like a used toilet roll, I will slap him silly for you!" And then give her a warm kind of smile :] At times you should give her hints that you like her too.
I'd like you to watch out. though. Most girls over the internet, Pretty & on a dating site? To me that's hard to believe unless they talk to you about their problems, Do they ever start the conversation? Do you seem overly attached? Always think about questions like this, Oh! By the way, Most girls like a guy that's a little "naughty" at times (if you know what i mean. Haha) Try to pull a few jokes that are obviously seem like a joke, She will think that your one of the funny, naughty, honest types but don't try to be weak and agree with everything she says, She can use you if you do that.
If she ever tries to cheat on you and wants you back, Don't take her back. She will do it again but there is probably a reason if she ever tries to cheat on you, The way you treat her can be one.
Don't forget her special occasions - especially her birthday! She would want to meet you anywhere and, of course, On her: Birthday, In parties, At a shop, Even in her/your house ;)
Hope I helped you!

Damn, you are CUTE. But you only asked about girls. I have a boyfriend anyway. To answer your question, some people are hypocrites and there's too much hatred towards bisexuals coming from both men and women from the gay and straight community.
