Please read and answer!! Need dating advice from girls!!! guys opinions welcomed as well.?
Sorry in advance about the length, but your answers are GREATLY APPRECIATED!! So here's the scoop: I just started dating this girl 2 wks ago, I am a senior guy and she is a sophomore. I've known her for about 2 years through youth group, and asked her to prom this year. She said yes, parents said no, that she couldn't date until she was 16 (didn't realize she was a young sophomore). I wasn't too disappointed, and started going to her softball games and got to know the parents quite well, and they changed there mind about her dating, presumably because they liked me. So, what dating advice would you girls/guys give? We have hung out quite a bit in the 2 weeks we have been dating, and we always have a blast, and it hasn't even been awkward at all. I am off to college next year, but it is only like 15 minutes away from where I live now, so that shouldn't affect much, and we go to the same church so i'll see her every sunday anyway. Long term dating advice? Advice for college/HS relationship? When should we start holding hands, don't wanna make it awkward but i don't wanna have her like expect it either and then never hold hands. Kissing is out of the question right now, I really don't want to make this a physical relationship at all, I want it to be out of genuine interest in each other and not for the wrong reasons. I am sorta old fashioned i guess, and i don't wanna rush into anything that i will regret later, and i try to be as chivalrous as possible (hold doors open, open car door, get her stuff that she mentions in conversation that she likes, etc.). Thanks sooo much everyone!

- u sound like a really nice guy, and i think u should just keep things the way they are. it sounds like u two dont have any problems
- WOW......you will be a great boyfriend to her i dont think you really have anything to worry about, but as for the hand holding thing, those are things you two can disscuss if you dont tink thats two awkward.....and also i appriciate you being an old fashion guy.....thats one less guy or girl who thinks a relationship is just for physical benifits I hope I helped you out some :D
- Way to go! Sounds like you're a good Christian guy- not a lot of those out there anymore :) It's probably good to take it slow, but feel free to talk to your gf about your physical relationship. It's easier to stick to boundaries (later in the relationship) if you both know the other person's expectations. 2 weeks of dating might be a little early to start talking about that, but in a month or so would probably be good. Open conversation is very important in a relationship. At this point, what you're doing sounds good (being chivalrous, etc.) little things to make her feel special. Good that her parents are supportive of the relationship too.
- You seem a great guy but your attitude is wrong! First off a physical relationship isnt something which is caused by wrong reasons if your a nice person and you like the girl. If two people are of the right age it is natural and beautiful and nothing brings you closer! Me thinks too much mind washing sunday school for you. Second of all there is no right time for holding hands, these things are supposed to be natural and happen in the moment and third of all 15 minutes away from were you live is not long distance. Oh and if you have known her for 2 years ... then you known that she was only 15. Oh and you have only been together like 2 weeks! Why are you planning her future for her?
