I would rather not rush into any relationship and really get to know someone first. But how long should it take when your dating someone before you should expect a kiss, goodnight, goodbye or just cause? Like if they never give you the chance to make the move, are they really as interested as they say?

Kiss on first date!

But I knew my first dates well before the actual date.

If a woman doesn't want a kiss, she's not into You !

If you're looking to get into a relationship, take things slower.

You've been married, what did you do then?

Just relax and be yourself and let her be herself. Things tend to happen naturally when you do that.

There's no set formula... what works for one person might not work for another. Sally might want a kiss on the first date... and Jane might want to wait for the 3rd date.

Welcome and good luck to you in your search.

Just kiss them on the forehead to start.

Girls like forehead kisses...

I don't like a forehead kiss. Yuck.

Like I said... everyone is different!

Awee.. really?...

Don't get no different than I....

Actually I'm with Kat on this one Stu... a kiss on the forehead is more like a father kissing a child... or two people in the major friend zone...

Now a kiss on the cheek or the hand... definitely the hand would be nice.

The cheek kiss should include a hug.

Well.....

Recon when I was told a forehead kiss was a blessing of love and friendship....
It was a lie .

Exactly sweetheart..... Of love and "friendship"... meaning love between friends

That's fine for blessings and seeing people off in the airport.... just not romantic dates

Least not for me.... or Kat

I hear you cat! Me either!

When a man is attracted to a woman, He wants a kiss!

Even if she don't want one from him.

I hear you River and Toody.

Really? I don't kiss on a first date and I think it's bad advice. If you're just casual dating, and maybe dating more than one, and you kiss with them all... yuk. You can get diseases from kissing these days.
If you date a lot, different guys, you end up slobbering an awful lot of guys. Yuk.

And however fiery and passionate I am, I don't typically kiss on a first date. It can happen if there is a special click, one that says there will be more dates and possibly more than just dating, but it's absolutely not my MO.
Too much too soon.

A kiss on her cheek when you pick her up.. a little pat on the a*s as you lead her to the bar for a after dinner drink and then in the sack with her by 10PM.

Yes, I too believe in taking things slowly

Seems like a contradiction. You want to take it slow, then you start wondering what to do when the woman doesn't do anything?
Maybe they don't appear to give you the chance to make a move because they feel insecure that you don't even make a move.
I know that if I'm dating a man and he doesn't seem interested in kissing me, I lose interest. Can be taken as rejection too.
And why not create the moment? Take her hand, kiss the back of it, stroke through her hair or something and see how she reacts. Or look her in the eyes and tell her you'd really love to kiss her.
I've had a guy do that and must say I really liked it as it was a heartfelt thing.

My dates were clean men, there was No tongue ting ! Or slobbering!

My dates were nice gentlemen, and we talked weeks and months some before any date!

We all do different things , and they were Very passionate.

Not too much and not too soon. I Don't do Hookups or coffee meets.

Really nice !!

Haven't you ever watched the movie Hitch? Wait for the 3rd date, LOL
