Venus and Mars Sitting In a Tree... K I S S I N G
Yes, it is different for every girl because every girl is different. There are a few thing that are constant, however.
1. Pay attention to how she responds to what you are doing. You should be able to tell if she REALLY doesn't like something.
2. Pay attention to how she is kissing you. If she is doing something with her lips or the amount of pressure she is applying, chances are she would like you to do the same.
3. Be open to suggestions. If you get into a relationship with someone, there is a possibility that they may like some things….and may NOT like some other things you do. Don’t take it as an insult, like we said before, every girl is different.
4. As a general rule, we don't like ending the evening with slober all over our faces... we're just throwing that out there.

Viewpoint from Mars
You did nothing wrong! More than likely, this guy is already spoken for. You haven’t heard from him because he either got caught by his significant other, or your suggestion of an alternate time ruined his plan and snapped him back into reality. Either way, it was for the best. Now go find a single guy that would change his schedule for you any time.
Here is our take on the situation...
Often guys will speak before thinking. If this is news to you... we would like to be invited to the alternate universe you have been living in. Take the above situation for example: Guy wants suggestion of good place to eat and asks a cute girl for her opinion. To thank girl for her opinion he suggested they both get some good sushi, since she is obviously partial to that particular establishment. Girl thinks he's asking her on a date, but she needs to reschedule. Guy realizes that it looks like he was asking for more than friendly company. Not knowing how to fix the situation, it seems easier not to respond to the alternate time than to explain he just was looking for sushi and a friend.
So guys, take a hint from Mr. Wrong and be sure your intentions are upfront and honest from the get go. There are plenty of girls who are up for just having fun if that's what you are looking for. We understand that miscommunication happens. Make use of that backbone and let us know if you are not interested in more than just good company.

If She's Not Talking...

Chivalry Is Not Dead
For starters let's get something out in the open. Women want men to be men that let them be women. Let us explain...
You are very strong and capable and when you do the heavy lifting it allows us to feel feminine and reminds us that we like all those manly things about you. We do not always expect you to carry our purse, but when you lift that case of water into the cart at the grocery store, or offer to carry our bags we appreciate it.
Sometimes we forget that we should let you open doors for us, but when you make the effort to get there first, we notice. This also goes for letting us into and out of the elevator first and when you help us up or down that one step.
We do not expect you to always pump the gas, take out the garbage or warm up the car... but when you do, especially when it's cold outside, we remember that you care about us.

per⋅func⋅to⋅ry
lacking interest, care, or enthusiasm; indifferent or apathetic
Boy says "Hi, I would like to get together sometime, are you free tonight?". Girl is busy but willing to make future plans... boy only calls an hour or so before he wants to go out... this is called apathy and women do not find it attractive.
Lastly, we like time to prepare for any outing, no matter how casual it may be. Calling us only 20 minutes before you are considering planning an outing makes us feel like we were a last minute choice, the one you went with after you had tried all your other options which didn’t pan out. Giving us at least 24 hours notice is something we find very attractive…

Online Dating... The Final Frontier
First and foremost SPELL CHECK. It is an immediate red flag when you are not willing to take the time to proofread your profile for errors. While we are on the topic, proper grammar and punctuation are appreciated
Post a picture... Just like you don't like messaging people that don't have pictures, we don't enjoy replying to messages that do not have profile pictures. Are you hiding something?
Post a current picture. We know that even if you don't like to have your picture taken there is a picture somewhere taken of you after the year 1990.
While we are on the subject of pictures, let's chat about what pictures are appropriate... While we are also interested in the fish you caught and the 40 pictures of that car you are restoring, those are not the pictures we want to see on your profile. One picture of you with the car is appropriate, but that's it.
Lists of qualifications on your profile, ordered by importance and completely unachievable, are ridiculous. This is supposed to be our first impression of you and we can't tell if you are joking or actually expecting perfection.
We know it's hard to describe yourself, we have the same problem, but a little effort goes a long way. Empty profiles that require us to do all the leg work are not appealing. We don't want to take the time to message you if there isn't at least something intriguing in your profile.
If we are on a dating website chances are we are not looking for a random make out. That is what bars, clubs, and personal ads on craigslist are for...
We do not claim to have all the answers but this, in our humble opinion, will help you make the most out of your online dating experience.
