Since the what not to discuss thread was brought up I thought I would ask what you would consider appropriate physical behavior for a 1st date.

Which of these would be ok or not ok for a 1st date:

Kissing (on the lips)
Kissing (on the cheek)
Holding hands
Minimal touching - hair, arms etc.

I pick all 4 as appropriate. If it feels right. If not...trying will only make things worse.

No touching what so ever unless she is really slutty or just plastered drunk in which case go for home base! But a "nice gal" oh no.... say adios goodnight and be on your way!

It kind of depends what led up to the first date. Minimal touching like touching the elbow in a protective way is nice. No hand holding for me on the first date. And a single kiss at the end of the first date is a sign that a second and more romantic date would be welcomed in the future.

All four are okay, but IMO, on a first date, less is more.

True. I would not go any farther than those 4.

Here in the show-me-state, we try to be gentlemen, but make it a fun evening as well. In addition to all the above, we like to offer to pick her up, and try to guess her weight. If she will arm-wrestle with you, it should be standard procedure to open her can of beer for her. These things are important, and should not be over-looked. Make it a date to remember!!

Because I feel that mutual respect is the basis of a lasting relationship, none of these 4 are appropriate on the first date.
