Not necessarily. Has he been in touch since?

LoopTheLoops · 24/06/2021 18:54

have you spoken since? Made plans for another date? Be careful not to fall into fwb (unless that’s what you want)

Essexgirl2021 · 24/06/2021 18:54

That's not dead in the water yet, text him and say hi

Essexgirl2021 · 24/06/2021 18:56

I kinda dont want to chase him after sleeping with him if he was interested he would have showed more interest in text today

Wait and see

I find it sorts the wheat from the chaff tbh

If a man likes you he will want to see you again

If he was only after sex he'd have got that sooner or later and then gone

If he's the sort of man who would judge a woman for doing exactly what he did. Divides women into what. Respectable or not. Virgin whore. Fuck or girlfriend material. Then I wouldn't want to be with him anyway.

The best ones are the ones who are happy that she likes him as much as he likes her and are keen to see again :)

In my opinion!

If he's they type of guy to dump you for having sex on a first date he's not worth dating.

I did this once and the guy made it clear he saw no long term future with someone who would do that despite him doing the same. Tosser.

NiceGerbil · 24/06/2021 18:57

Read update.

He wanted to check you got home safe.
He asked why you didn't.
He got in touch next day.

Sounds ok to me!

Sunnyday321 · 24/06/2021 18:58

Had sex with mine on first date we've been together 22 years.

NiceGerbil · 24/06/2021 18:59

Dating is such a mind fuck isn't it :D

Save irl when anyone was seeing a new bloke and saying what does this mean?! They'd get a different answer from each person Grin

He wasn't worried enough to contact her though, was he?

The thing is people will say “oh I slept with someone first night and now we are married” but I reckon that’s rare, I would say there are far more men that ghost after or make it clear they just want to keep you on for sex, so definitely don’t chase!

Sarahlou63 · 24/06/2021 19:09

Tell him you still respect him...

Same here, still together 11 years on Grin

TiltTopTable · 24/06/2021 19:14

I had sex with my DH on our first date, we've been married 35 years. I'd never had sex on a first date before, but it just felt natural. We married within a year. So you never know, if he's worth bothering with he will just be thrilled that you fancied him enough to sleep with him. If he judges you he's an arsehole and a hypocrite.

Pantheon · 24/06/2021 19:17

I slept with dh on our first date. Been together over 10 years.

BiscuitLover09876 · 24/06/2021 19:19

If he really liked you and was the one he, he wouldn't be put off by having sex with you. It's not in your control now. He's keen or he's lost you, not the other way round.

Essexgirl2021 · 24/06/2021 19:21

Thanks for all the comments .
@Hopeishere good point bit of double standards

@LoopTheLoops Yes id def say there is far more that would ghost

Slept with DH on a first date and 8 years later we are still very happy

It just felt right

Life is too short

IhaveaBigBum · 24/06/2021 19:40

I don't get it when men judge a woman for having sex on a first date.... like dude, didn't you participate too? Hmm
Total double standards and would put me right off.

KindChick · 24/06/2021 19:43

Whatever happens don’t for one minute beat yourself up. Live for the moment, you did and that’s great.

Craftycorvid · 24/06/2021 19:45

Have I nodded off and woken up in the last century? Sex isn’t something to offer or withhold as a strategy. If it felt right to have sex at that stage, it felt right. If he buggers off afterwards, as pp have said, you’ve not wasted more of your precious time on him.

Bunnyfuller · 24/06/2021 19:46

Another first date sex here…20 years in December.

They either like you or they don’t or they’re twats. The rest is just noise.

If his brain is so small he would judge someone for joining him in consensual sex, would you really be interested?

PromTwink · 24/06/2021 19:48

I did the whole drunken "Come back to mine and watch a film, you can sleep on the sofa".

AnnieSnap · 24/06/2021 19:58

Are women still being judged for having sex on the first date? Women need/enjoy sex as much as men. I was a teenager in the 70s. It’s frankly depressing that this is still an issue!
