Dinner is certainly not necessary at this early stage. Maybe you could think of a fun activity to do together: hiking, boating (if available), going to some kind of exhibit or public event, that kind of thing. You could get lunch or a snack afterwards.

Thanks for the tips guys. I definitely like her and the experience wasn't as nerve-wracking as I thought it'd be. The pessimist in me is saying one thing, but I'm still hoping for the best.

You don't have to go out to dinner as a date, but if you decide to do something else together, suggest getting a slice of pizza afterwards. Girls need food.

Do whatever you want man. Sounds like you're a decent guy and she's into you. Don't need to follow any rules, just go with it. With all that said I agree with everyone about waiting a bit... makes her miss being with you ; ) don't need to rush anything

Great news!

For next time, think of something fun you could do together that doesn't start off with you sitting across the table from each other with that pressure to TALK.

Do something fun that you can talk ABOUT while you'redoing it, then go for something to eat afterward.

Just call her, but mention in class that you had fun and you'd like to ask her out on XX day if you want. And let romantic things happen the way you want them to. You're getting to know her; you aren't playing baseball.

Oh wow. You really don't have a clue do you.

I chatted with her briefly. Said I had a great time, yadda yadda. She said she also had a great time. That response is certainly not dispositive, but not a bad sign either.

I figured I'd call her tomorrow to actually try to set something up. . . unless people say otherwise. If that is cool, how concrete should my suggested plans be? Should it be specific like: We should do X at Y time at Z location? Also, is there any 'best' time of day to call? No classes tomorrow, so that's not an impediment.
