First Date, is he interested ???

[pinkchick06]

I went on a date thursday night. We met through a dating website but discovered he only lived 5 minutes away from each other. Anyway, we have been chatting a few weeks and got on like a house on fire. He asked me to go for a drink last minute thursday night, I was abit hesitant as didn't wana look desperate or anything but agreed. He took me to a pub which we both haven't been in before (I asked not to go local, he wanted to) we didn't stay long. When we drove back we talked about all sorts and he kept saying he loved my positive outlook on life. He also said he felt as ease and very relaxed around me which was good, A few times he also wanted to tell me he wasn't looking for a one night stand he actually wanted a relationship.

We ended up back at his, lying on his bed (no tele in the living room of his flat) watching Kymatica on youtube. He casually asked me could I do an indian head massage on him, I said no, 10 minutes late he asked me to do a hand massage I again said no. Then he asked me to tickle his back, I ended up doing it. It was funny. I may state that at no point neither of us where put in a situation on any sexual level. He kept putting his hand on me like in an affectionate way.

He gave me a big hug and kissed me on the cheek goodnight. He's been away for the weekend visiting his daughter and I've been busy too. I haven't text him and I haven't heard from him. We didn't mention another date so I'm not too sure? Guess it's a waiting game.

He is exactly my type and he seems like a lovely guy. Hes 10 years older than me, hes an aries and Im a sagitarrius.

What do we think??? xxx

We men sometimes suffer from the 'looking needy' thing, too, pink. He's done his bit so now it's your turn.

[coli05anna00]

you clearly need to know where you stand and he is the only one who can tell you. if he genuinely likes you he will be in touch.if he was seeing his daughter at the weekend then i would imagine his full attention was focused on her, quite rightly so. im sure one little text mid week if you have heard nthing is perfectly fair

[pa___ul3]

asking how his weekend went 3 days after last seeing him isn't needy, it's interested!

[ummmm]

Ask this evening. Don't play the Wednesday game.....it's immature.

[pinkchick06]

ok i'll do the whole 'hope you had a lovely weekend' thing tonight x

[coli05anna00]

i wouldnt say it was immature just giving a bit of space

[pinkchick06]

Yeh thats what I think x

[arwyn]

You'r worried that you'll find out it's over, but the sooner you find out the better. Why did'nt you stay in the pub longer? Who's idea was it to go back to his? if they were both his ideas I'd be worried.

[coli05anna00]

i reckon he will be in touch anyway you seem a lovely person so he would be mad not to

[ummmm]

It's a text we're talking about....

[beginswithak]

I think he likes you. There is interest there....

You have both had busy weekends. It's only Monday. At this point you will be on his mind and he may also be waiting for you to contact him first. So you are both playing the waiting game.

If it was me I'd wait until Wednesday evening to text him. Wait for his reply and take it from there......

In the past I would have been so stubborn and made sure i wouldnt try to make contact at all.... nower days I just feel we have nothing to lose!... Just get on with it :-)

[pinkchick06]

The pub we went to wasn't that nice, we had been told it was alright. It was my decision to leave as it was boring. I did give him an option, I said I'll go now if you want me too he said your more than welcome to come in for a cupper if you want. I didn't have to but I thought as we were having a nice time it would be good. He was a gent in the sense he made me feel comfortable and it was nice and relaxed x

[arwyn]

Sounds like he likes you then, so just text Him say "Hi how was you'r weekend? mine was -------"

[ummmm]

You do realise pinkchick that we're gonna want an update :-)

[coli05anna00]

yes we definately want an update. best of luck although im sure you wont need it

[pinkchick06]

Thanks guys!! I really do appreciate all your honest answers. I am very open minded when it comes to dating, you win some lose some is always thought of. I always think what is for you won't go round you... I've been hurt, had my heart ripped out and was made very ill so I've been there done that. I am just about letting some guards down to let certain men in now, took me nearly 3 years!! Lol.. will keep ya all updated. xx

[coli05anna00]

you deserve lots of good things and happiness, just relax and take it in your stride good things come to ye who waits.

[pinkchick06]

I do like him, it's mad because for a first date it went really well. There was no pressure from either party. It wasn't even like we were strangers. Keep ya fingers crossed xx

[whiskeysheri]

Agree with Paul! Text him tonight; Wednesday's almost a whole week of no contact after a good first date! He asked you out first, so he might be waiting for you to contact him , so that it's not him doing all the "chasing". Good luck! :)

[pinkchick06]

Well, took your advice & text him. Made it very simple just said 'Hiya, hope your've had a good weekend with your daughter' that was about an hour ago and as of yet no reply... Think am gona prepare for the worse case senario; he's not interested... xx
