Hi all,
I've been a frequent reader on reddit and I figured that I would let you guys know about my experience. Forgive the long post, I don't want to leave out any details.
A little bit about myself: 22/M, only been in one long term relationship. I'm also relatively new to the dating scene, I've maybe met up with 10 different women for first/2nd/3rd dates, but I never escalated things beyond a single kiss (even a kiss was rare) on these first few dates.
Story: I met this girl via online dating a week ago. We grabbed a coffee last week and talked for an hour until I had to leave for work. Today, I had a second date with this same beautiful and charming girl. I picked her up from her place and we went to a local pub that we both haven't been to. I started off this date with a hug (the same way that I began/ended the first date). However, as we got to the pub, I made it clear to the girl that I wanted to sit in a booth with her (rather than sitting across from each other at a table). From there, it was rather easy to make small initial physical contact (brushing her arm, putting my hand on her thigh, etc).
As we were leaving the pub, on my way out of the booth, I held my hand out so that we could leave the place holding hands (hands down, best trick I've learned from reddit!). On the way to my car (which I intentionally parked 100+ feet away from the entrance), I randomly stopped walking, and told her to hold on for a moment. I grabbed her by the waist, moved her closer to me (gently), and kissed her on the lips. After this kiss, I gave her a quick peck on the lips again before we continued walking.
On the way back to her place (driving in my car), I put my hand on her thigh while we were talking about random topics. I noticed something that made me feel great: she reciprocated and put her hand on my thigh, which I've never had that happen before. Once we got back to her place, I walked her to her door to give her a goodnight kiss, which she turned into a makeout session, right at her door. I did not go any further than this because she has work in a few hours, plus I wanted to leave her wanting more. But the point is, I went from someone who wouldn't kiss until the 5th+ date, to making out on the second date with the potential of going further, all thanks to a little effort and reddit reading!
