Text Or No Text?

Me AGAIN!

So, I had (another) first date on Tuesday. Went for a drink with a guy I'd been chatting to for a week or so. Got on really well and had a good laugh. When we left he said he'd like to meet up again and then we texted a bit later on. Said I seemed really lovely blah blah and would really like to see me again. I replied saying yeah me too, blah blah and that I was heading to bed. Not heard anything from him since then.

I do realise that was only the day before yesterday but frankly he was a total hotty and we had loads in common so I'm an eager beaver. But I don't want to be too eager do I.

So, should I wait and see if he gets in touch with me or do you reckon I should make the next move and if so, when?

It's at this point I feel I should remind you that I am in fact 29 years old and not 13 as this question most likely portrays me to be but I've kept this one to myself from friends & family cos I'm tired of having to tell them it's going nowhere again and again so I have to ask you lot. :)

[ummmm]

I think it's a don't disturb him at work kinda time.

[anneasquith]

he has a very big head :(

[MadMen]

I'm obviously in the minority here, but I would wait for him to text.
He's probably busy working and stuff, and will text you towards the weekend. Hold out for that text and play it cool.
If you really *must* make the first move, then I'd wait until tomorrow, then you can ask if he has any plans for the weekend.

P.S Whoop whoop!! :))

Suspense is killing me!!! What did you decide to do EvianBaby? Have you text him???? Argghhhhh!!! The waiting!!! oH AND ................WHOOP...WHOOP!!!! X

[EvianBaby]

I think I'll just stop being a massive woos and text him. If he doesn't reply then thats his loss *swooshes hair in defiant manner*.

Lol March, harassing him before breakfast would be a bit much. I'll wait until this evening.

EB....you are one of my favourite Abers and my advice is based on a lifetime of success with women. Let us take this step by step:

A date for a man mainly is to see if a bit of sex is available.
A date for a woman mainly is to see if he is a suitable partner (father to her child).....mainly ......but not always.

If he likes what he sees, then he will text you again..............this weekend "malarky" is crap....if he is keen, then the weekend will involve YOU.

Play "hard to get"....................

[ummmm]

Sqad, I don't know if you realise but it's 2013. Just saying....

[EvianBaby]

Sqad, I almost stopped reading your post after I saw the first few words. I didn't want to come down from the wonderful little cloud you just put me on ;)

[Purple_Popple]

I'm in too minds on this one. Part of me is saying don't text him and play hard to get BUT past of me is saying why play games. .. just text him lol. Although men do like the chase I've often been told. In the end do what feels right. I really hope this comes gold add or does sound promising :)

[Purple_Popple]

Stupid phone!
I really hope this comes good as it does sound promising.

[RATTER15]

Text him, what ever happened to equality of the sexes and all that!! Go for it!!

[EvianBaby]

Lol PP, I did wonder :)

Ratter, I don't believe in sexual equality. I'm rather lazy so I'd prefer men to just get on and do everything for me.

Its obviously driving you mad thinking about it, I would text him today. For all you know he could be thinking the same thing, should I text her or not. Its only one little text I don't see why that would put him off if he is interested. Good luck, hope it works out.

[ummmm]

Playing hard to get is about not jumping into bed. Nothing to do with sending a text.

[Purple_Popple]

Hello Evian, have you text him ? Or had second thoughts ? Hope all is well.

[Kiki-frog]

In your situation I'd probably text, but keep it light-hearted

[yelenots]

Well.....have you text him yet???

[Prudie]

I know it's 2013 but personally I would not text, I still think if a man is interested he will do the chasing whatever the year ;-)

[Just-Jude]

Never txt on a Friday, it's boys night out!

[curlyperm11]

I would listen to Squad!! Ive been doing the 'dating' thing for the last few years......in my opinion...and ...more importantly.......IF they want you......come hell or high water....they WILL contact you!
Its not about games...,BUT......if i were you...i would NOT txt him NO WAY!
Wish you luck. X
