OK so my original thread is here:

 

http://www.loveshack.org/forums/romantic/dating/400356-uh-oh-interpret

 

I guess I was just being overly cautious and jumped to conclusions. We had planned to meet up at some point this week, turns out "next week" meant Monday night :)

 

He asked me out to dinner last night, came and got me, and we went to an Asian fusion place. He picked up tab and I offered for tip. Had dinner, dessert, good convo, another kiss at the end of the night...

 

All seems to be going well, right?

 

What happens now??!! LOL. There was no talk of meeting up again, but at this point I'm really going under the assumption that we'll be getting together again, it's kind of just implied. We've had 3 great dates, make each other laugh, nice guy, etc etc.

 

I'm clueless on how to navigate dating as I've never done it before... that are the most obvious next steps? (And don't say "sex" because that's not a next step for me right now.)

I'm stating the obvious here, but since there was no talk of meeting up again, what happens next is that someone has to make plans for the next date. Is it going to be you this time?

Things are fine. Just relax.

 

I'm sure he'll contact you. If he doesn't within a couple of days, ask him out. And this time you pay. :)

No, I mean I know things are fine. I've just never dated. What happens next? Do we just keep hanging out? When do conversations take a more serious turn? When is too soon to become even friendlier together without him being weirded out?

I don't know what to tell you. I tend to let these things organically develop. But then, I'm often not worried about the outcome. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I don't even understand your last question.

 

You talk about seriousness when you want to, the hole point is that those things should happen naturally.

It's not like "ok so we are at date number 7, let's talk about long term goals" lol

I've never dated. Period. Not once. Not ever. I'm not sure how these things progress or happen. It's all new to me that's why I'm asking stupid questions.

They aren't stupid, sweetie.

 

For now, just continue to get to know him. I promise you that things will develop naturally. It's still pretty early.

Oh man, I want to watch Grease, now!!

 

My house, you bring the popcorn. :D

 

Oh, and then we can have a Game of Thrones marathon and cry bitterly at the fact that season four is so far away.

I'm right here, sweeties. I have snacks, beverages and a couple of grief counselors on retainer. ;)
