| How many days of silence after a good date, before you would assume the other person has lost interest? |
| leave it. make no assumptions, carry on with your life. |
| My experience: 2 days. During times of Covid, I'd give up to a week, but don't accept a date at the last minute! That is a bad habit you don't want them to fall into even when we're all basically staying at home. |
Out of curiosity why do you give more time due to Covid? |
| Did you put out? if not, he isn't calling, if you did, he isn't calling unless his stable runs low. |
| After a good first date 2-3 days. After a few dates with the last including sex 1-2 days. |
2-3, though in my experience if you don't hear something within 24 hours you won't. |
Not all men are like this. |
Only the men who can. |
Our lives our just crazy now: family situation, COVID exposure, job demands, etc. |

I have always received a message a couple of hours after the date.
If the date was that great for the other person, most likely he/she will send you a message like, "It was nice finally meeting you. I had a great time. Looking forward to seeing you again" Bla Bla Bla Op, maybe it was a great date for you, but not for the other person. Some people are just charismatic, friendly, even if they are not interested. I have been on dates where I like the other person, and I have had a good time but not enough to pursue a relationship. |
| I’ve never had this weird waiting period. At least a follow up text in the next day or so. |
I agree. If I heard nothing within 24 hours from what I considered a good date it’d be weird. Reach out first OP! Then you know what you’re working with. I’d just text HIM “hey, I had a great time the other night- shall we have an encore sometime?” |
That sounds kind of desperate and reverses the biological inclination of men to enjoy the hunt. I would not text him, OP. You'll end up doing all the work in the end, and he'll only be too happy to oblige you in coming over and having sex with you while pursuing a woman he truly wants to date. If he doesn't contact you, don't worry, you'll find the right guy who will. |
I disagree. Now, there is actually less excuse for delayed call backs. No one has a full schedule anymore, and most are working from home and within a few feet of their phones and laptops |
