hurting tonight Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 I was texting this guy back and forth for a while, and we finally go out on a first date. It seemed like the date went ok. Before we parted ways, he asked me to call him, I told him to call me, he has my number. When I got home, I sent him a text thanking him for a nice time, he replied back. I didn't hear from him for 5 days. I sent him a text just saying hi, feeling that he wouldn't reply, which he didn't. I wont send anything else. Why are guys such idiots and not be straight up and say, hey I'm not feeling it, sorry but I don't want to go on another date. I hate cowards, instead of coming straight out and saying, hey I'm not into you.
january2011 Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 For some people, it is easier to do nothing than to do something. They may think that it's less confrontational that way. I wouldn't let it mar the rest of your dating life though. So far, he's just one guy. Not a trend for you.
Author hurting tonight Posted August 2, 2012 Author Posted August 2, 2012 I guess you're right. If he was honest, then I wouldn't have bothered wasting my time sending him a text. Oh well.
ascendotum Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 To be fair on him, from reading your post, he did no say he would call you. You assumed it because he originally asked you to call him. Besides that, I can understand you liked him and it pissed you off that he faded. It particularly sucks if you have what you consider to be really fantastic time with the person with lots of chemisty and the feeling seems mutual, only to have the other person ghost on you when you follow them up. No reply happens often in dating, and just as much by women, arguably more so as they hate confrontation. You'll just have to be prepared that it happens. Txting makes it easy to ignore people.
robaday Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 He didnt agree to call you, and you could have called him. You texted him, he replied back the first time. The second time did you ask him a question? Sometimes you have to put yourself out there again by asking to see him again. He could have been shy? asking you to call him? And not hearing from him in five days - after one date, im not sure its that strange. sorry, just another perspective.
yongyong Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 I can point out many imperfections you have. I am sure you are not a size 2 girl with flat abs. What if I am honest and say 'those muffin tops disgusts me. sorry', will you take it as a positive feedback or start screaming?
Leopard Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Because if he was honest, the girl would think he is a sexually perverted *********. Just like how if a woman was honest, we would be high maintenance, picky b*tches.

Author hurting tonight Posted August 2, 2012 Author Posted August 2, 2012 I'm honest enough to tell the person ty for a nice date, but at this time I don't feel like we should pursue anymore dating.
