    Lots of caveats to this so don’t just blindly go around asking people for a kiss or whatever, but for a date, especially the second half or end of the date, I think a good rule of thumb is to assume they want the kiss/hand hold/etc, BUT the critically important thing is you should just ask first and respect whatever answer they give. “Can I hold your hand?”, “Do you want to kiss?”, etc. If the women in your story and ops had done that, they almost certainly would’ve gotten what they wanted, but often people expect men to be the one to initiate, and no matter what gender you are it’s scary to do anyways.

      Sorry bro, but some women may want to be asked, and some women find it to be an immediate red flag weird thing to do demonstrating lack of confidence. You can’t win.
