sandiego Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 So I had a great first date with a really sweet girl. We originally planned on meeting for drinks, but it turned into dinner after I asked if she was hungry (she said yes). The conversation flowed well and the date lasted for three hours. No awkward silences, just really casual and smooth conversation. I told her at some point that I really liked her and would love to see her again. She responded, "definitely". So far so good. We tentatively discussed getting together this coming Sunday (we met on Monday). I walked her to her car and give her a quick kiss on the lips, which she seemed open to. Also, I asked her to text me when she got home so I know she made it safely. She did send the following message..."Home!". To that, I replied, "Thanks for letting me know:) I had a really great time with you tonight! I'm definitely excited to see you next Sunday. Sleep well!" Her response was as follows, "Thanks, I had fun tonight too! Good night!" Here's where my mind begins to overanalyze......if she were really interested, would she have indulged me with a little more info in her last text? Or should I just assume that she was serious about wanting to meet again, but didn't feel it necessary to thank me for dinner or mention that she was looking forward to see me again soon? Clearly, this will all work out one way or the other. I plan on calling her Thursday to reconfirm our plans. Ladies, do you see any red flags in her short response? Or am I just over analyzing? Any advice is appreciated! SD
Jazzari Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 I don't see any red flags at all. She made the effort to initial the message and let you know that she was home. She let you know she had fun too. Did she thank you for dinner previously? If she did, there is no need to do it again. It all sounds great to me.

Any advice is appreciated! SD She's not gonna gush over the first date via text, thanking you over and over. That seems desperate. One thanks is enough. If she wasn't that interested, she wouldn't have replied at all. You're overanalyzing it.
Author sandiego Posted January 11, 2011 Author Posted January 11, 2011 Awesome...thanks so much for your advice. I sort of thought I was thinking to hard about this....whew! Much appreciated! SD
ConflictedGuy27 Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 it doesn't take a woman to tell you that you're waaaay over analyzing this. you were. here's something to mull over, Romeo, think calling her to confirm on thurs is a bit early? could be perceived as desperation. for a Sunday date, I'd call Saturday. however, i would send some random flirty texts (just to make her smile, not necessarily illicit a response from her) in between then & now though. something connected to a funny/cool/somehow memorable moment that took place on the first date; 1 to 3 texts tops. e.g. (she mentioned hating small dogs and you both found that funny) "just walked pass the yappiest dog on the planet; you're right, they do suck!" I say mix it up.
ReadyforLove Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 LOL you are definitely over-analyzing. It is hard to gauge someone's emotions via text. Stick to phone conversations and face-to-face meetings.
ConflictedGuy27 Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 It is hard to gauge someone's emotions via text. Stick to phone conversations and face-to-face meetings. or, just don't send any emotional texts where the intended message could be misunderstood. chicks love getting texts.
