Second date (non-sexual) touching....

OK, this might seem like a weird question, but here you go.  I'm going out on a second date with a girl, and we're going to a concert.  Now, this is a metal show, so the audience is usually pretty active, and therefore people tend to run into each other.  When I went to concerts with my ex, I'd usually stand behind her with my arms around her as a way to protect her from other people's bodies with my arms.  However, this is only my second date with this girl, the first of which only ended on a gentlemenly kiss on the hand.  So, what's the proper level of touching on a second date that won't make her think I'm trying to rush things?

I think you can still put your arm around her or hold her hand - she would probably see it as nice gesture.

I agree with sugarbaby. If I liked a guy enough to go on a second date, I'd really like that he put his arm around me to protect me from getting thrashed at a metal show :) If you're going to see Dethklok by the way I'm so jealous

Ma'am, I'm going to need you to step out of my head, for your psychic abilities are beginning to scare me.

HAH! Awesome! Hope you have a great time... Very cool that you got a chick to go to that show, maybe her pet name for you can be Thunderhorse
