Hi,

 

 

I went on an amazing date last Friday and everything went very well. We got along great and talked about seeing each other during that date.

 

After the date he did not text me for 2 days and I already thought he wouldnt be interested. However, last night he sent me a picture of a wedding he attended that weekend and said he cant stop thinking about me. We sent a few messages back and forth but he has not initiated a second date yet. What should I do? Is he even really interested?

he's interested alright but he doesn't know if you are so he is waiting. send him a text letting him know what days you are free and then sit back and wait for him to ask :)

Let him initiate and come to you. Answer to his texts and have a short and sweet conversation with him. If he’s interested, I guarantee he’ll ask you out again. Don’t put yourself in a chasing position and let him lead. If he doesn’t ask you out again after one week, just let this one go and keep going on dates with other guys.

 

If you start chasing him and initiating everything, you can’t judge his level of interest. A guy who wants a girl pursue her. Just think about all the crazy things a man in love can do for a woman. And also think about the men who kept chasing you (even when you weren’t interested and when you declined their initiatives many times). That’s how a man who’s interested behave.

A smart gentleman let's the woman chase him

Women worth keeping don't play silly games, they don't have the tolerance for man-children, for good reason.

said he cant stop thinking about me.

What should I do?
Quote his message above and text him: Does this mean you want to take me out on a second date? :)

 

 

Then see what he says.

So do you guys think that it is a good sign that he texted me? Or would any of you text and sent a picture just to be nice but with no intention to meet up again?

in general it is a good sign

I feel a little confused since I never had a scenario like this before. Usually sits either

1. He’s not interested and therefore doesn’t texts again

2. He’s interested and asks me almost immediately how my week is gonna look...

 

Starting to get a little nervous tbh.

ahhh there is nothing to get nervous or anxious about...just kick back and relax. have a glass of wine.

 

if you two genuinely had fun on the first date he will call/txt you soon...I mean if he for whatever reason doesn't want to take it forward there as still a lot of fish in the sea

So what was your response to him when he said he can’t stop thinking or you?? And did you send him a text after the date thanking him for the nice time?

Yes we both said that we had a great time in the text messages. After he sent me a picture of him from the weekend I sent him one back from me and my dog and he said we both look super cute but that’s kinda where the conversation ended.

Everyone plays games. It is just a matter of knowing the rules and how to play it well.

 

Women shouldn't wringing their hands over a situation like this and expecting a guy who she just met one time to be texting her everyday and treating her like a wife already.

Smart guys are only going to start out dating once a week and will not be doing a bunch of texting in between. If they have a busy life it might even be once every two weeks at first. You aren't boyfriend/girlfriend yet.

Not expecting that at all. I was very happy to hear from him Sunday and am just saying that I’ve never had a situation before where someone seems very interested but doesn’t try to plan another date.

what was his body language like? did you touch each other and stare into each others eyes? was there a hug or a kiss during/after the date? did he tell you you look pretty?

Yes we kissed a few times and his body language seemed like he was interested . He touched my arms and back a few times while we were out and also pretty much from the beginning

So I decided I’ll just sent him a sweet message tonight that I thought of him and ask how his week is going. Hopefully he will ask me out then.

Or, he thinks "well she DOES like me, I had the wrong idea!" and the message prompts him to ask her out.

 

Either way she's got nothing to lose, right?

So I texted him and he responded immediately that he would be happy to see me before his work trip. Not sure if he was waiting for me to reach out but he definitely does not dislike me .
