I felt the ending to the date was odd.

Hi,

I’m 30 and a male. Never dated much, had a few long term partners as an adult and outside of those relationships I’ve always been relatively happy being single. I went out on a first date with a girl who was about the same age as me earlier this week. The date seemed to go pretty well, there was lots of chat and I don’t recall any awkward silences. The plan was to go from the place we met and go watch a game in a different spot in the city. We had a drink and talked in the first place (like I said, we talked and there was no awkward vibes or silences). We left together to go to the next spot to watch a game but when we got there they weren’t showing it so we left and pondered what to do, I suggested another place fairly close that would most likely be showing the game but she didn’t want to go to this place and said she was just going to go home. It was a bit confusing as things had seemed to be going well I think we’d probably been talking for maybe an hour or so but I was just sort of like ok no problem. She said it was really nice to have met me, gave me a hug and we said our good byes. 

To me, this seemed like a really odd way to end the date after the vibes had been pretty nice since we’d been together. Like I said, I’ve never really dated much but due to what I perceived as an odd ending I decided I’d probably not text her unless she reached out first but I’ve had a few friends suggest that I message her. I don’t see the point in trying  to flog a dead horse but don’t know if I’m just over analysing the abrupt ending.

 

Do you think I’m probably right in my intuition in not texting her again? I kind of thought if she texts me fine and is carry on the talk as we seemed to have a nice time when we were together.

 

Thank you!

It's hard to say..... it could mean she wasn't interested in you and wanted to cut the date short, or it could mean nothing.  You would have nothing to lose by texting her to suggest a second date and seeing how she responds.  Then you'll have your definitive answer.

There could be a million reasons why she preferred to go home early. Maybe she was feeling ill, or suddenly remembered she had to wake up early, or the place you suggested brought back some memories, etc. Not being interested in you is just one of many possible reasons.

Ask her out on another date. Initiate something more romantic next time and see where this goes.

Next time step up: ask her what's going on.

Most of the time when people act this way it's an indication that they aren't very interested. Most people who are interested will usually go along with stuff unless it is completely unreasonable.

A woman will give you an indication she is interested in more.  If you have zero indication of that, just let it be.
