He forgot my name ???

Anonymous wrote:Eek! Before the test did you hope to hear from him again? If so, consider it an honest mistake for now. Once he sorts out who you are, he'll either ghost you or laugh about it and apologize and when he's writing his wedding vows he'll call you Betsy and laugh. People make mistakes - give him a chance to see how he responds when he does.

This. And reply back with the wrong name.

Omg have some fun with is - hi Bobby / I had fun too. Signed your real name. I mean life is short - auto correct happens - or he was on the phone with his aunt Betsy and she was going on and on and he was thinking I have to text Jane about the great night last night and accidentally typed Betsy - OR he’s a huge player and had two dates last night and got confused - but we are here to support you - text him back

If you can't remember her name after the first date, she can safely assume your focus won't improve going forward.

I don't reply back to texts. To me, texts are so lazy. I wouldn't respond back unless he calls you for another date. Then just play it cool if he asks about the text.

If I text a woman I barely know and she doesn’t reply I am NOT calling her. I would assume she’s not interested.

I mean we just went out last night! It’s awkward. I have no idea how to respond and honestly, I’m a little turned off by this. Honest mistake? Or mix up by big time player?

Lol, this happened to me, except in reverse, and even worse. I dated a guy in college during the spring, then went away for the summer. When we saw each other in the fall, I couldn’t remember his name at all.

They already went on one date. Did you read the original post? If he enjoyed the date so much, he will call for another date.

Texting is ok now in the third decade of the 21st century, you know.

If a guy texted me and called me the wrong name, I’d text back a joke of some sort, drawing attention to his error. How he handles it from there would be very telling!

You can’t take the first few dates so seriously.

Many guys will not. I’ve dated many women who indicated no interest in phone calls until a few dates in.

Ghosting, for better or worse, is common. If I text and get no reply I will assume I’m being ghosted. I don’t want to be a pushy creep, and I’m also not desperate.
