That's fine. Worst case that's an hour away, no problem. All the advice you are getting above is fine.. I would do all those things, HOWEVER, since you really do not know her and have never met you need to keep your eyes open for signs of interest. All dates I go on I already know there is some level of physical attraction, so causal touching would be okay. I wouldn't do that until you know she finds you attractive, otherwise it will not go well for you. DO not start off touching her... in fact I wouldn't do it unless she touched me first. Keep her talking, you shouldn't be saying anything unless it's stuff to make her laugh. The best way to have a first date is to go in with the belief that you are a fun awesome guy, and you are interviewing her for the job of sex kitten. The problem with too many men is that they try too hard to impress women... it comes off as needy and supplicative... which is not manly.
At the end of the date only try and kiss her if you are not sure she is really interested in you. You are doing this to test her interest. If she kisses you back, then you know she likes you. DO NOT try and make any plans to see each other again there on the spot, wait a few days and call her to make another date.... this time try to get her to meet you half-way. Again, you have to get her to the point where she is putting some effort into you. If she thinks you might have other options, and she likes you, she'll put in efforts to be with you... If not, well really... why would anyone want to waste their time going after women who are structured game players.
In all fairness I have to say that I personally would NEVER do what I just recommended to you on a date. The reason is that I DO NOT WANT a relationship. I date women to have sex and have fun... I am not interested in any long term commitment to exclusivity. I go into dating KNOWING that as soon as the girl finds someone that she is attracted too who will commit, I'm gone... and you have to be completely okay with this, so much so that you MUST be happy for her. When I go out on dates I make it chrystal clear I'm interested in sex, and if she is not okay with that then I'm not wasting my time with her. Truth is when you act like I do on my 1st dates typically you either end up n bed with them that night, or the next date.... or you don't see them again. And the truth is that if all you want are causal relationships, you really have to have a "I want what I want attitude, or I'm burning this bridge."
