I’ve asked for another and she aid it’d be great, so now I’ll have to figure out that.
We didn’t hold hands is that bad sign?

She accepted another date, Sly.

That's pretty good.

Tell us about the girl, man! How'd you meet? How'd you ask her out?

This is great news! Not holding hands on the first date isn't a biggie, so much depends on how long (and how well) you've known each other before going out the first time.

Congrats!

I probably wouldn’t want to hold hands on a first date unless we’d been friends for awhile.

Take it easy, don't rush. Don't bombard her with texts, stay "hard to get" - if she asks you why you don't text much tell her that you have a busy life. Just keep it to one conversation per day and keep it to the necessary minimum and mostly geared toward meeting her again.

And don't ever tell her that it was the first date in 6 years.

Nice one sly. Some people don't do holding hands.

And oh, don't EVER tell her about the ASSBurg-, I mean AS syndrome. Just tell her that you're introvert and not a very social person.

No. Just...no!

If a guy just kept our conversation to the necessary minimum, I wouldn’t think he was interested in me.

You can absolutely tell her about AS at some point. It’s nice to be open with your partner. It encourages intimacy. I might not tell her right away.

A girl that digs you isn’t going to be turned off by that. She’ll want to learn more about it, so she can be supportive. If she doesn’t like it, she’s not worth your time.

Which will make you chase him, but if he shows too much interest then you will label him desperate.

Sly, don't listen to Twilightprincess..
