<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

I am a male (29m) with very little success in the dating world. As I get older I do not met many new people and my social circle has gotten smaller as friends get married or move. This had resulted in me being a bit lonely and recognize that I do not get out much so I figure why not try online dating. 

As I have tried this I have been the guy that girls meet once and never would talk to again. Had people say they would meet and then never replied when you got more specific. So I know how crappy that feels. 

So the question is now I meet a girl (27f). We seem to have a lot in common, but I am not feeling a spark at this point. We have only gone out 3x and I have not made any moves to romantically advance things past a goodnight hug. 

On the one hand I really do enjoy hanging out with this person and doing new things. But on the other hand I do not want to lead her on. 

Granted she might feel the exact same way as me. I am assuming the advice will be talk about it. I am fine with that but how does that get brought up? Do I wait for her to initiate the next meeting and be like hey I just want to be friends for now. Or do I keep going as is never trying to advance things romantically? My fear with that is I do not want her to feel I am toying with her emotions.
<bot>: Met a girl online. I feel like she would be a better friend than romantic partner. I do not want to lead her on, but enjoy hanging out and would continue to if it did not hurt her.
