So i went on a very fun and random first date sunday night. I had fun but unlike every other date i had i was much more reserved and awkward because unlike the past 8 dates ive had this year i actually liked this guy, i was aware i was being awkward but literally could not switch it off. He asked how my dating life was and i gave a daft answet i said ive been on a few dates this year but im very fussy and i dont go on second dates to which he replied saying you shouldnt settle and i agreed he then said that mabey we should go for coffe next time and that he wouldnt take offence if i said no. I just smiled and didnt say a word. What i wanted to say in my head was yes but i couldnt say it out loud because i wasnt sure if he was just saying it or actualy meant it. He texted me later that night saying he had a nice time and arrived safely at home. Its tuesday i sent him first text yesterday ....he replied late and i replied even later which he replied today. Our chat was very brief. Does this sound bad or good? Im literally dying for him to message me! All the other guys i was wishing they didnt message me. I hate this so much. Should i just wait it out? Ahh.

Blimey.

Just move on and don’t overthink first dates and don’t be afraid to ask for a second date, in future.
Dating is sometimes about putting yourself out there.
Move on to the next one

I'm on the dating scene, and if I suggested a follow-up drink to a guy and he didn't say anything - but simply smiled - I wouldn't be seeing him again.
If you like someone, you kind of have to let them know.
