Aibu to assume that he could have texted me back by now?

[Jbrum]

So- I went on a date with a guy last Sunday. I thought we hit it off fairly well. He even asked me to stay about for longer and grab a drink after the date so I did, went super well.

Anyway, we messaged back and fourth after the date on Sunday and Monday. Then suddenly I just heard nothing off him since and we’re on Thursday now? Which is weird. I wanted to text him and say “hey you okay☺️” but I also don’t want to feel like I’m begging him to talk to me??

I actually really enjoyed the date and it was his idea to go on a second one after and then even go out for more drinks so it was so strange?? I don’t want to look like a complete beggar

Assuming you were the last one to text, the ball is in his court.

Yeah. Agreed. I did like him but I feel awkward texting again as well😅

It depends. Was your last text a question? Or was it an answer?

Have you got another thread on this.
Prob best to stick to one if so.

Honestly, if a guy likes you he will pursue and want to plan the next date and talk to you.
I had to learn this the hard way, but I would NEVER message that now... It gives them all the power, especially when they aren't that interested.

Keep your power and also think about whether you want a good, consistent communicator.

You've got two identical threads asking the same question?

Did you not like the resounding "just leave it" from the other thread after you'd explained what your last message was?

If he wanted to text you he would, to be blunt. Any of this “did he ask you a question” stuff is irrelevant- if he liked you he wouldn’t wait to be asked a question

If you really want to know message him again but most likely he’s not that interested (sorry)

Pretty obvious he isn't interested. Sorry.
If he wanted to send a text that takes less than a minute to type out, he would.
Move on.

I definitely wouldn’t reply with “hey you ok”. It’s just awkward and gives the impression you’ve been anxiously waiting on him. I think it’s fine to respond with a comment or question but if you receive no reply then I’d just leave it.

I read a thing from a dating coach the other day

If he likes you, you would know, if you are confused, he doesn't. seems it might fit here?
