@Bluemax: Maturity. There wasn't a need to be in such a rush. If I like her, she'll definitely know it during and after the first date, so there's no need for me to kiss her and force things. And if I don't want a second date, there's definitely no reason to kiss or even hug her. I have had a number of first dates where the woman specifically mentioned how glad she was that I was being a gentleman (and also that she was relieved that I wasn't talking about sex).
Now, it wasn't until I was in my 40s that I acted like this.
I cud have but glad I didn't. I wanted to have a meaningful relationship so I'm waiting on a second date. She made a moment and hug all over me and kiss my cheek. I wish I went for it. But no I'm waiting.
I just don't as a general rule of thumb. If we really hit it off and she's not holding back and making her feelings obvious, then I'll reward her accordingly.

I would NOT like a kiss in the first meeting. There was many awkward moments where they went for it and I had to reject it 🤕
No, honestly if I’m really serious about a girl I won’t even touch the bitch. Physical intimacy should be last.
No, next time it will be three months of dating later.
I need to know him better to know if I really want to kiss him. Definitely not kisses on the first date.
There's really no reason not to if it went well and you want to establish that there will be another date
Only if the first date went extremely well and there is chemistry between each other.
only if it feels right and you get permission from her. Its a delicate balance
Yes this should be normalized. A small kiss is good
A kiss on the first date shouldn’t be a goal.
A first date with tons of chemistry might make it irresistible though.
no just let stuff happen naturally and at some point it will no need to force it.
If the date is an overall success, then sure.
If you never want to see the bitch again, then it's rather presumptuous, don't you think?
It depends entirely on how the date went. therefore, my answer is no, not always.
No absolutely not, but honestly it you’re okay with it and they are too then it’s fine.
I used to (and for more actually) when I was young, but never now
What changed?

Nope. People who kiss on first dates are probably walking herpes factories.
No touchy till tested.
Not if he’s a stranger. That’s weird.
Isn't the point of a first date taking a stranger and getting to know them so they're no longer a stranger by the end?
@Bee-Hatch He's a stranger to me until we know each well after a few dates.
Hell no. It cheapens the experience. Too expected and normy.
I just don't as a general rule of thumb. If we really hit it off and she's not holding back and making her feelings obvious, then I'll reward her accordingly.
I would have to feel the girl out and see if she seems like she would be okay with it because some women really don’t like that
