Hi! Just looking for a touch of advice here. Very simple. Reading these articles has been quite interesting. Just a quick question:
Went on a first date yesterday. Lasted 2.5hours. Had a good time. About 30 minutes after our date, I just text him a thank you, and that I had a really nice time that afternoon. I know he read the message yesterday due to the read receipt. He only responded to the text this afternoon saying that it was nice meeting me too.
Not quite sure how to take it from here to be honest. I’m afraid that if I don’t reply to the text he could doubt my interest but I would want the ball to remain in his court….thoughts anyone?

Don’t text him anything… See if he contacts you again and asks you out.

No, he won’t doubt your interest because you already told him it was nice to meet him. He said nice to meet you too. At most I would send him an emoticon.
Yes, a nice smiley emoticon, that is all that guy gets for a “It’s nice to meet you too”. See this guy knows how to pursue, he knows how to ask a girl out, he can tell when a girl is interested and you better bet that he knows you will most likely say yes to a date with him again—- he doesn’t need any reassurance on your part. He knows how to get what he wants…. so let him, or let him walk.

Ivy, that makes perfect sense. I just felt that any kind of ignoring isn’t the most positive sign either. This is online dating, you just never know when people change their mind.
I’ll send a smiley in a few hours.

He is not interested, period

This is exactly why you never send a nice to meet you text. You gush on the date, let him follow up after….

Do not send anything else, you are already chasing him.

I used to always send an after date text to thank him for the drinks or whatever, especially ifahe hadn’t texted me yet. I personally quit doing this though. I already thank the guy when I’m actually ON the date with him and in person so why the need to double thank him??
It’s mainly because I was hoping for a texting convo to come from it. I realized that if he did reply, it didn’t mean much. So I decided to just let the guy be the one to contact me. It can be hard. But you need to let the guy chase you. If you had fun on the date, he knows it. If he had fun, he’ll ask you again. Be patient. Some guys move slow. Keep dating and talking to other guys. Don’t reach out again!
