I was on a date recently that included 6 hours of very good conversation. She had every opportunity to end the date but never did. My concern is that there was no sort of contact ( a brush of the shoulder, touch of hand) to indicate interest. Do I ask her out again or was the physical distance a sign?

If you want to see her again of course you ask her out. Also....she may very well have been waiting for YOU to initiate a little light physical touch. Don't be passive about these things.

I agree with JayJay.

I think you should have at minimum a hug by the second meeting.

If you are waiting for her to go first you may be very, very, very old by then. Having said that, be very careful how you initiate anything here.
Be respectful and just start with a simple hand touching or something low key. If you do not get a postive reaction, stop right there. You will have your answer.

Being a princess, I always let the guy initiate contact. It's always fun to sense that desire and it's even cooler when it happens. If you sat there talking for SIX HOURS... for the love of ice cream... Touch her next time!!!!!!!!

I ususally wait for the guy to initiate some form of contact and then I will reciprocate...it shows they are interested and its sorta the go ahead to touch him without rejection. Maybe she wasn't sure if you were as interested as she was.
