Is he interested?

Met a guy on my commute to work Friday. It was one of those times when you meet someone and instantly have a spark/connection. He asked me what I was doing later and I was free so we ended up hanging out. The date/hang went well in my opinion.I really enjoyed his company and I think we got along really well. It also lasted over 8 hours.

Background on him, he was only in town for the weekend. Lives in a different city and likes to travel to other places for the weekend. He said he will be back to my city in a few weeks.

At first I thought he was just interested in sex, but surprisingly he tried nothing at all. We hung out the entire night, bar hopped a little. He paid for everything, held every door, etc. The one downside is that I saw a few different girls names on his phone while we were out and got into my head that he probably does this with everyone, every time he goes to a new city. My attitude somewhat changed after seeing those names and I think he could tell.

When he dropped me off at home, he said he would see me soon. I responded kind of snarky with “will you?”. Again, I was in my own head thinking “why would he try to see me again when he returns, he will probably meet another girl and hang out with her”.

Anyways, he never texted me after that. But as the weekend passed, I realized that I shouldn’t have probably taken it so personal or responded in that way. I mean, it was a first date, and I feel like I probably came of us uninterested in the way that I acted. I ended up texting him this morning asking if he had made it home safely. He said he had and he was sorry about the silence and that he had meant to message me, but that he had a good time.

The question is, do you think he is really not interested and just making an excuse? I feel like if someone meant to message you, especially a man, they just would. Also, wondering if I should hang out with him when he returns or just forget it and just remember it for the good night we had?
