To think if he wanted a second date, I'd have heard by now?

I went on a first date with a guy from an app 5 days ago. Date lasted around 2 hours, it was a walk in the park (literally, not figuratively!) and I made sure I had an easy out.

He looked a bit nervous at the start but then warmed up. It wasn't flirty but I'm someone who needs time to warm up. We had a great chat, made jokes and seemed to have lots in common.

At the end of it we just quickly hugged and said 'take care, bye!' he didn't suggest a second date or say anything about seeing me again.

I've not heard from him since. I'm possibly clutching at straws here but maybe he thought I wasn't interested? I was the one to end the date first and I didn't flirt or say anything about meeting again.
However part of me just thinks, if he'd been interested, I'd have a message by now.

@Grazianoscubanheel Wow, big deal. She contacted him because he didn't contact her. (After the first date.) Nothing wrong with that whatsoever. Obviously, I would give the advice to the OP to not do the chasing all the time though.

In fact, if he doesn't contact you after this next date@KookyUmberQuoter , contact him again next week or whatever. But then don't contact him the next time - if he doesn't contact you after the third time you meet.

Leave the chasing to him after that. You will have done your bit then. Don't keep on continually chasing him. He does have to do some of the work.
