I should start by saying I'm recently out of a 4 year relationship. GF broke up with me a couple months ago. Just putting myself back out there now.

I (29 M) met a cute girl (29 F) on POF. We went on our first date on Saturday. Date went great. I went in for a kiss when I walked her to her car and she kind of dodged it. After the date, she texted me that she had a great time and she said "I know you wanted to kiss me but I don't kiss after the first date. Just not that kind of girl." I said "no need to apologize. That can wait until whenever you're ready." She then tells me she likes me a lot.

From Sunday to Tuesday we are non-stop texting. On Tuesday night I take her out for dinner. Again, the date goes great. After dinner I walk her back to her car and again, I get an awkward hug and kiss on the cheek goodbye.

At this point I'm really confused. Granted, I'm newly single and haven't dated in like 5 years given my recent 4 year relationship but all my friends are telling me to drop her if she won't even kiss me after 2 dates.

Am I looking at this the wrong way? Can someone shed some light on dating/first kiss rules? Thanks.
