To think I shouldn’t go on a second date?

First date was good, walk around the city and we got two coffees, the conversation was flowing.

When we parted ways we kissed. He messaged me about a second date.

This was Sunday. He text me last night to say he doesn’t think I find him attractive because when I kissed him I didn’t use my tongue.

I was a bit taken aback. For me it was a quick 30 second kiss. We weren’t making out, I think tongue is more intimate personally. It’s kind of put me off him that he’s questioning this.

Yeah - that would be a no from me - he's either a bit of an inexperienced and socially inept person or he's trying to goad you into more physical intimacy that you are ready for by implying there's something you're not doing right.

Bye!

FFS, you're not even at date two and he's telling you he's so insecure that should you see him again it will be your job to reassure him you find him attractive.

Save yourself the time and energy.

Randomthoughts992 · 25/08/2022 20:56

I dont even kiss my husband with tongue. just the thought grosses me out. i definitely wouldnt want to be sharing Tongue juices with some stranger ive met once...

DianaGarageDoors · 25/08/2022 20:56

Yuck, what a creep. Still, at least he let you know.

Trudij123 · 25/08/2022 20:56

I’m with the others - definitely not !!

Ducksallovertheplace · 25/08/2022 20:57

Yeah head for the hills on this one! Gross!

TiredzzZZ · 25/08/2022 21:02

Yuck! Weird!

TiredzzZZ · 25/08/2022 21:04

Ps. How old are you both? If 16 or under, maybe he's just awkward. I could forgive him. If you are both adults then .. run!! Quick!!!!

PeekabooAtTheZoo · 25/08/2022 21:10

He’s trying to guilt you into sexting or putting out IRL.
Ick.

Golaz · 25/08/2022 21:11

How do you kiss someone for 30 seconds without tongue though ? Do you just like press lips and hold 😅. Sounds a bit weird tbh but also vvv weird that he pointed it out/ text you about it. 🤮

GreyGoose1980 · 25/08/2022 21:11

RED FLAG

Chdjdn · 25/08/2022 21:18

Ugh no, both weird and fishing for compliments

Tiredmum100 · 25/08/2022 21:19

Goodbye weirdo. I'm probably a bit weird though as I find kissing with tounges gross any way. But he doesn't sound a keeper.

Hotandbothereds · 25/08/2022 21:22

Ugh that’s such a weird thing to text about, especially days later so he’s been thinking about it.

Just no, he’s given me the creeps.

wherearebeefandonioncrisps · 25/08/2022 21:24

That text alone would put me off.

W00p · 25/08/2022 21:25

Well this has made me want to crawl into myself. What a creep.

Mother87 · 25/08/2022 21:26

Another one with instant ick here

Greengreengrassofhome01 · 25/08/2022 21:28

Extremely weird. He must have to say that to many women on a first date.

K37529 · 25/08/2022 21:28

weird I’d stay clear sounds really needy

fuckblippi · 25/08/2022 21:29

Oh gross 🤮

FinallyHere · 25/08/2022 21:38

So he thinks you did the kissing part of your first date 'wrong' and decided to share those thoughts with you ?

Who even does that?

Maybe an awkward attempt to try and soften you up provide 'more' next time round. I would not sign up for any more of that nonsense.

Open communication, being able to make your wishes and desires clear in a straightforward way, without adding any pressure, is an essential skill required for a happy relationship between equals.

He wants you to reply "no, I really fancy you" and then you will feel like you have to prove you fancy him on the second date and go further than you might feel comfortable with. Dump.

You've hit the nail on the head here!

Redqueenheart · 25/08/2022 21:49

He sounds like a creepy teenager...
