I went on a first date with a man I met on one of the main dating apps. It seemed to go well, although I had more to drink that I would have liked, as I think the nerves got the better of me. It wasn’t love at first sight or anything but I’d like to see him again - and definitely without booze this time!
After the first date I told him I got home safely (he asked) and would he like to do it again. He immediately messaged back and said yes, and that he found me hilarious. Lol. All good so far but there haven’t been many messsges since then at all over the past few days. He hasn’t asked any questions so conversation doesn’t progress.
We had a very brief exchange when I took the initiative to message him last night and he replied early this morning. I asked him if he did want to meet or was he too busy (as no plans were being made). He said definitely not too busy and we should meet. He suggested a day early next week and I agreed and we rather wished each other a good weekend (he is away visiting family).
I am no spring chicken anymore but I am finding this all rather flat and disappointing. Is this how middle aged dating is now? He was rather fun messaging in the beginning. Am I expecting too much? Is this normal from men?
