Aging myself here, but what is it with this texting crap after dates? Men, stop being pussies. If you like a woman, grow a pair and CALL HER. The phone doesn't bite!

He may just be being kind by texting since you made out but he's not ready to take the plunge yet...my feeling is if he were ready he would have asked you out by now. Or he could be like PP's DH...no way to know. I would go back to the meet-up at least once.
Or just go for it, as PP said, taking the chance.


OP, the typical guy faces an unending amount of rejection in the dating world. He's being cautious.

How old are you, OP?

I personally always liked the guy to pursue me but I have been with my DH since I was 24.

PP again - just realized it hasn't even been a week yet.
I would keep texting him...my hunch is a date will happen.
Give it a little time.

He is looking for some sign of interest. Send a flirty text back.


I agree. My DH kinda did this when we first met but it was a little different circumstances (had just had 1 meeting in person after "meeting" online). He kept texting me about stupid shit and never mentioned anything about another date. The next weekend came and went and he sent an email with a comment about something that happened on our first meet. I was tired of this chatting and no action so I replied something like "oh sorry, I do that when I'm in the company of a cute guy " within an hour, he was asking me for another date and well, the rest is history. So yeah... try sending a flirty message and see if it gets things going.

You made out sober. Call or text him.

You are playing head games with yourself. Stop.
