Did she not like me? I met this really cool girl at the library the other day, we got to talking

and we had alot in common. I asked her if she wanted to go across the street to the cafe and she said ok. When we got there she asked if I minded taking our coffee outside so she could smoke. I was quite turned off by this but I obliged. She asked me if I smoked and I made a stupid comment, as I always do around girls and said "no I don't want to lose a lung" she gave me a rather noticable dirty look, but didn't decide to leave. I then asked if I could have her number so I could call her sometime, she said she does not like giving her number out, but I could have her email. I said ok, I think she did not want to give me her number because the comment I made about smoking, well I emailed her and asked her dinner. Last night is when we went to dinner, I thought things went great, I felt a strong connection with her, we then went on the peir and were just talking for about an hour, although the whole time she was smoking, although I must say this girl is just to cute and intereting to let smoking be a show stopper. Once when we were on the peir I tried to put my arm around her but she quickly dodged this move. I was upset but did not let it deter me. Later while I was waiting with her until her cab came I went to say goodbye and give her a kiss, she dodged it like a bullet, but then said " I had alot of fun tonight, it'd be cool if we could hang out again" I said ok well I'll email you, she gave me a very cold hug and got in her cab. Where did I go wrong? The smoking comment? If so why did she agree to dinner? Was it something I did during dinner that she disliked? Does she just want to keep me in the friends zone? Would I seem like a chump if I emailed her now after she dodged both my trying to put my arm around her and the goodnight kiss. Please give some advice. I have never really dated and am always stupid and nervous around the ladies. I am sure she was turned off by something I did but what if she wasn't and I don't contact her then I would feel stupid, but then I don't want to contact her and then she be like "why didn't he get the hint?" Help?

I too think that you moved far too fast. Nice girls do not like the physical stuff when they are still trying to decide whehter or not they even like you.

You do need to keep this in mind for the future, because you will lose many second dates over it.

I do not think that anything else was going on here. And, it cannot hurt to contact her, if you are still interested, and ask her out again. All she could do is say NO. And, she might say YES.

If she does say YES, do not make any moves on her. Let HER come to YOU. Unless you do not care about the future.

Just guessing, but maybe she's the doesn't kiss on the first date type and thought you were moving too fast. If not, she's not that into you. I don't think it was the smoking comment as she did agree to the first date after the comment was made. What it was, who knows - women can be turned off or on by all sorts of little things...

Maybe u r too quick in trying to be close to her. How can someone with close with another person they barely knows and emotionally. And its like the second date (right?) that u r doing it, i think it sort of scared her. I think respecting a girl is very important and taking ur time.

I think the attempt to get the hug and kiss where a little to forward for the first date. Even if you feel the connection its still safe to wait until at least date three.
