solidadvice4teens answered Wednesday February 7 2007, 10:43 pm: You are certainly doing fine considering she asked you to the mall and made the critical first move that sterotypically (usually) is the guy's job.
I recommend that you do nothing (including trying to impress her or make her laugh) than be natural and the person you always have been. That is who she likes and is impressed by. She will be turned off otherwise and may back away from you thinking you not to be mature or the person she thought she knew and liked.
Let her lead with everything including making decisions such as what movie to see, where to eat etc. Most importantly she MUST lead with the conversation and not you. Keep personal things about yourself and your interests completely out of the conversation unless she brings things up.
Be sure reveal very little about yourself on a first date as she's not wanting your entire life story in 30 seconds. I mention this as guys and girls always make this big mistake and find themselves never invited out on a date or otherwise again with the person.
NEVER discuss past relationships with other girls as you can bet that she will consult them next to size you up further and vice-versa she knows you will do the same. It's a trap not to walk into. The best thing and most important thing to do is pepper her questions about herself, her interests etc. That will help your cause.
At the end of the day tell her you appreciated spending time with her and getting to know her better. Tell her that there is an event, movie etc and or a new video game, DVD you think she'd enjoy that you would like to ask her to or over next weekend and will touch base in e-mail once you know what's happening.
That shows her you are interested in her but does not tell her you want to date her just yet so that she doesn't turn you down and run off to her friends. If a second get-together happens (which is will I'm sure) just turn to her when things are quiet and ask what she would think about dating. Leave it to her to answer. The odds seem stacked in your favor right now if you play it cool. [ solidadvice4teens's advice column | Ask solidadvice4teens A Question ]
