Seems to me he just wanted a hookup.


That's what I wanted too and want to happen! Dammit

OP here.
I met someone Friday night and really hit it off. As in, we both left the friends we were with and talked for a couple hours. Told each other all about ourselves, I know everything from how many sisters he has and what the best pranks they pulled on him to his preference for tucking only the front of his shirt in under a suit. We kissed for a little bit too at the end, and talked about what we wanted to do the next time we met up, in great detail and specific places, and that's when he got my number. This is where it got a little tricky: He asked me to come back to his place and I really couldn't because I was driving my friends home, who were very drunk, and it was my responsibility to get them home and I didn't have my car there (drove my friends SUV to fit everyone), and I explained that to him while trying to convey very clearly that I was very interested and not blowing him off.
Which when he got my number.
I know it's hard to picture here, and take my word for it, but I dated a lot previously and have never hit it off with someone like this or had the level of attraction going. I had to peel myself away to get my friends.
I guess I'm just really disappointed I haven't heard anything yet but it's only Sunday.


Did he ask for your number, or did you just give it to him? If he were truly interested he would have asked for it. It sounds like he was looking for a one night stand.



He asked for it, we talked all about the things we were going to do. In a variety of ways

OK. The male ego is a very fragile thing. I know you conveyed your genuine interest, but some guys are conditioned to interpret things the wrong way. All he heard/sees is...she rejected me. Also, he might not want to be viewed as too clingy. If you don't hear back by Tuesday you might have to reach out to him.

For some people the three day rule is still in effect!

I do believe that every day he doesn't call or text, the chance of it occurring at all goes down 20%...

From 30 seconds to never. I usually wait a couple days so I don't seem desperate.

Did he ask for your number or did you offer it to him?

It actually is pretty immediate most of the time.

Brand new to dating again, just wondering what the "going rate" for contact is. Full disclosure: this guy is amazing and I'm dying for him to call me, stared at my phone since Friday night and..... nothing.
We are early 30's if it matters.
Is there hope??
