How do you touch girlfrand?

I have this frand who's a girl...I call her girlfrand but she's not officially. BUT I gave her a flannel shirt for her birthday and she agrees with me that Darth Vader TOTALLY is cooler than Superman (well, at least she laughed when I said that). Anyway, I know she's gonna let me touch her because of all this - but i'm a bit NERVOUS. I've never touched a girl before (heck, I've never even had girlfrand before). So like...I don't know how hard and stuff. I mean, do you just stroke and like tickle? Or do you grab REAL HARD like you found a limited edition chewie? Or maybe not as hard like a not quite mint condition Han Solo? I need help. ALSO I have this problem where my nose bleeds sometimes if I get real nervous and I'm afraid that might happen...do you think that matters? Also, I shaved my "short and curlies" because I heard girls like that, but I cut myself when I was half done and it hurt so I just stopped...ok or no? Any help is appreciated. May the force be with you!
