Having been a 'pimp daddy' for most of my life, I was glad for the opportunity to 'drop some knowledge' for my fellow man. You have to ask yourself some serious questions:
1) Is she hot?
While the answer seems to be a simple 'yes or no', it actually has many levels. Is she always this hot? Have you seen her in the morning, sans makeup? Would she wear a bikini or a one piece? Does she THINK she's hot? Does she KNOW she's hot? Would she be worth the trouble she'll INEVITABLY bring you in the long run? Will she be hot in 5, 10, 15 years?
What's she look like in a skirt? Would she wear a thong to a baptism?
These all are important questions you need to know before you get serious.
2) Can she support herself?
The fact that you already took her shopping only implies to the woman that you will spend an inordinate amount of cash to get in her pants. This is a bad sign for you. She will only expect an increase in spending, proportionate to the amount of 'touchy touchy' allowed. You must stop this behavior forthwith. Feel free to 'go dutch' whenever the opportunity arises. If she is a 'enlightened woman' she won't feel hurt or threatened, she'll respect your candor, it'll save you cash, and you will be able to see just how much cash she brings to the table. Don't be a miser, but don't think you have to buy everything, either.
3) How long will you wait for some semblance of physical contact?
NOT saying that you, or she, has to 'put out' on the first date. The inevitable questions will follow. Too much, too early versus too little too late. It's a delicate balance. Hold hands, a gentle hug, a close dance, an arm over the shoulder. I think if the connection is there, you should look forward to the first kiss. But each has its own timetable. Nothing is more awkward than a clumsy, ill timed grab at cleavage on a first date. But, if she shies away from any contact at all, she is either 1) using you for your money 2) thinks of you as a friend or brother (relationship DEATH) 3) has a physical defect/disease that she will spring on you, usually when the symptoms first appear. Take your time, and put a helmet on that soldier!
While it is true that most women are heartless, evil beings, there is a CHANCE that she is actually a woman worth dating. My advice is to take your time, buy stuff if you feel like it, buy some breath mints and deodorant, and make her laugh. Trust me, it's the little things that win the war of the sexes. And if all else fails, see if she has any hot friends.
