Summarize this article:

Finding activities that you both enjoy will help you form a deeper relationship and connection. It will help you understand what you both have in common. It will allow you to watch how she interacts with others. It will also help you work together as a team. Consider:  Letting each of you rotate picking the location/activity of a date. Each proposing an idea and then choosing which one suits you as a couple. Trying a different activity each date to test as many possibilities as you can. Be honest about who you are and what you are like. You don’t want to build a relationship on dishonesty and deception. Such a relationship would just be one that would falter and fade later.  Don’t lie or embellish your reputation and your achievements. Be honest about what you like to do for fun and what interests you. Be honest, but don’t be blunt or insulting. If she asks you a question, don’t blurt out whatever you are thinking. Answer her questions truthfully, but tactfully and carefully. You need to work to demonstrate that you are more than just a fairweather friend. You’re there for the good times and the bad times. This will signal to her that she is an important part of your life.  Talk to her and console her when she does poorly on an exam. Offer support when there has been a death in the family or a divorce. Bring her small gifts when she's sick or down. Ask her how she's doing when you see her. If you notice something is bothering her, ask her if she want's to talk about it. But don't push too hard. Try to spark some conversations in which you can share your dreams with each other. This will be important as it will help you learn more about each other as individuals. As a result, you should be able to grow closer to each other.  Spend a date, like a picnic, talking about where you both want to be in 5, 10 and 20 years. Talk about where you both want to live, ideally. Talk about your career and family aspirations. Show affection when and if it is appropriate to do so. Showing affection might help draw you closer to each other, and will signal to her that you care about her and want to take your relationship to the next level. If she reciprocates, you'll definitely know that you've been successful. But be careful and consider:  Showing affection may include hugs, snuggling, kissing, and even thoughtful and loving looks and comments. Only show affection if it is appropriate to do so, and if she consents and is enthusiastic. If she rebuffs your affection or tells you not to do so, stop immediately. She might not be ready, so give her time and be sure to move at a pace that is comfortable for both of you.
Find activities that you both enjoy together. Never tell lies to her. Show her that you are always there for her. Share your dreams with each other. Show affection.
