Depends on the context. I would feel yesterday would be a failure if there wasn't a kiss. Well maybe not a failure but a speed bump.

What a coincidence. I just had a first date the other night. We didn't hold hands or kiss but she hugged me when we first met and hugged me even harder before we departed.

No handshake? No hug? No gentle kiss on the cheek? No whips?

Like NO physical contact?
No handshake, hug or even hi five?
That's definitely not a GOOD sign, but not an all-out failure. Sometimes you've got to initiate that stuff.

Dude, I think the guy pretty much always has to initiate that stuff. Unless it's an aggressive woman or the touchy type. I had that in my mind the whole time and still nothing. What a botch...that my friend had. Yeah, that's it, my friend. |

I have had a few relationships where nothing happened on the first date. The first date is to get to know each other, not to test the sexual playground of your partner.
I am not including handshake or a hug. I do those to my friends, it has nothing to do with sexual interest.

Really, especially if it from online, the first date, is just to get to know each other, and see if you connect.
There should be a hug, but with kissing I figure if we like each other that's what the 2nd date is for.

Only way to judge the success of a date is if there's a second one or not.

No handshake? No hug? No gentle kiss on the cheek? No whips? Just once I want a first date that involves whips.  |

I've had first dates that led to other dates without any physical contact. Maybe a flirtatious bump, but that's it. I guess my question is was it a good date? If it was bad, then no physical contact would make sense.

Assuming this is serious for a second, I would consider the opposite approach. If either person is all about physical contact after one meeting, then it says more negative to me about the person. I realize it's just going to be a difference in philosophy, because 2015 and sexuality and physicality are now viewed along the lines of the equivalent of putting a quarter in an arcade game on a whim. But if the purpose of a date is to "find a keeper," I think someone loose with physical contact on a first date is more of a sign of "oh ok, I could probably score with this person" rather than "I'm so going to fall in love with this person who gives their body away after just one date; I'm sure that's a first for them." I would rather consider it a success if there was no way possible I could score with them after one date, yet still had a good time where it mattered most. Again, not a big deal if promiscuity and frequent physical affection is not a problem for you. It's just a thread topic, and I figured I'd weigh in with a very non-2015 way of looking at it. I personally don't find someone loose with their body as "keeper" material because it's just a preference in the long term line of thinking. Also... Only way to judge the success of a date is if there's a second one or not. Mine is not being knee'd in the groin at the end of it. Batting a solid .300 Hahaha, nice. |

I once only held hands on a first date. 20 years later she and I are married with children, a mortgage, and a hairless cat.
