    what to do?

    I have met a girl on netlog about a month ago, and we have met eachother last saturday. We had a lot of fun and I like her, and I think she likes me too. But I have no experience in love or dating, I never had a girlfriend before. Now my question is; how should I go from here? I don't want to do something wrong and risk losing her.
    I am very uncertain about what to do.

    Here's a couple of tips:

    1. Ask her out again. Put some thought into what you do on the date. Always try and do something a bit original. The best dates are always the ones where you find yourselves doing something unusual. If you take her out on a more traditional date like dinner, take her to a restaurant with a bit of character like say, one of those Japanese places where the chefs throw the food at you. That sort of thing. Make sure it's somewhere she's never been. And make sure you pay for the girl.

    2. Take it easy. The biggest and most common error young rookies make is getting swept up infatuation and lose control of their behaviour, or at least losing perspective on their behaviour. A lot of young men blow it because they get a few positive signals, and take it as an unqualified green light. They drown the poor girl in their attention and scare her off.

    Courting a woman is often like holding a flame up to a rod of iron. It often takes time for them to heat up.

    So what I'm saying is don't call the girl incessantly, or message her, or stalk her online. Don't make grand pronouncements about your feelings for her in the first few weeks. Keep it mellow. Keep contact to a few times a week to start with. One or two phone calls and a date per week, for example. At least for the first little while.

    3. On your date: relax. Don't keep focusing on the idea you're on a date. And don't worry if the conversation seems stilted sometimes, or if you feel like you say something wrong. All that stuff is to be expected.

    Meet her in person again? And then again? And then if she keeps agreeing to meet you, then it means maybe she likes you?

    Gosh, I don't know.
