how do you pull it off, especially if your both actually interested in the movie
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

- Start date
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

that is difficult when the date starts out at the movies (i know bad idea) and you havent really had a chance to get to the point where she would be comfortable with holding your hand

"rest" your legs on top of her legs while reclining back in your own chair.
tickle her at boring intervals during the movie, or just randomly.
tickle the palm of her hand lightly to get those tingly feelings and then you can progress to holding hands.

Here's a tip I learned from a girl:
If at any point you are sitting with a girl and she has her hand rested in her lap and her palm is facing up that means she wants you to hold her hand. It also makes the move a lot smoother rather than prying her figiting fingers apart.
You could also whisper something in her ear.
If there's a funny part in the movie you could always tap her or touch her leg or something and say "Wow, that was funny." Yeah, that's kind of lame but atleast it will get her used to your touch.
The classic throw your arm around her. Don't do any coughing bullsh!t, just be direct about it.
Here's a ballsy move, but I've done it on a first date. Lift the arm rest up so that it makes your two seats connected. Then reach down and grab her legs and put them over your lap, she will then reposition herself to make herself comfortable. Then you can rub her thighs or what not. You also also do the same thing but have her lean her back into you then throw your arm around her.
Overall, just have fun and have a good time. Just keep it natural and light. Start slow, with maybe with touching her arm during certain scenes. Then hold her hand. Then pull away. Maybe hold her hand some more then "go to the bathroom". Then when you return don't hold her hand at all, keep them in your lap, then randomly just throw your arm over her. Throw her for a loop. It's fun. Trust me.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

ill have to try that. all sounds good at a decent theater but now i need to figure something out for a theater where the seats dont move and neither do the arm rests so theres like a barrier in between the two.

Accually I enjoy leaning in and whispering into her ear, "watch this"
And then I do one of those yawns and put my arm around her.
Its funny becasuse it is so rediculous looking. I usually follow it up with "I can see your impressed by how smooth I am" in a serious tone as their laughing.
She will think its funny and you will have your arm around her

When I'm with my girl I say "oh look! a unicorn!" and like point at the ceiling then put my arm around her. I do it noticeably and make it seem really cheesy. She always gets a laugh at that. Another thing is when you want to talk to her about the movie, rest your hand on her leg to get her attention and keep it there after you're done talking. You can also "fight" over the arm rest.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

id use that but the theaters around here suck and putting my arm around her wouldnt be comfortable at all. most i could do is probably hold her hand unless i can convince her to sit in one of the extended seats that are closer to the screen. if we do that its gonna be more about her than the movie tho because its really hard to enjoy it from there

Why do you make it harder? Start the "date" before the movie and do some stuff. Next, if you want you can tell her to come and see a movie.(If you still want to do this.)

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
