Joys of dating

[Readandcook]

Ladies-

I have started dating again and have met a couple of men that definitely I didn’t see again as zero chemistry!!

However Wednesday I met a lovely guy called Mark. Everything perfect and I so enjoyed chatting to him and listening to him too. He was lovely and I though he liked me too! Even gave me a quick kiss too!

Yesterday morning he just sent me a good morning text on the dating site.
I replied that it was lovely to meet yesterday and chat and I would love to see you again etc!
He replied saying exactly the same and I was delighted.!!
I then left him my mobile number to save him going into the site to converse.
But that was yesterday and I hadn’t heard anything so I thought I would check I had entered the correct number this morning.
My number was correct but he was also online!!!!

I feel so disappointed but what shall I do.

1. Do nothing and wait?
2. Do nothing but contact him again say Saturday if I haven’t heard anything?
3. Ask him straight out if he is interested in meeting up again?

What are your thoughts ladies?

Throw that one back. If hes not got in touch, hes likely multi-chatting or dating. Don't chase him up

Why the link to the same post on Gransnet?

Do nothing and wait - at LEAST for a few days. One nice date doesn't mean he's not still looking, and you can continue looking too!

I don't understand your timeline - he sent you a message yesterday (Wednesday) to say it was lovely to meet yesterday (Tuesday)? When did you meet? Because you said Wednesday, which is yesterday! You can't mean last week because he sent you a message yesterday talking about a date the day before? I'd give someone a minimum of 48 hours to respond to be fair. We're all busy. Also you're not exclusive - you can chat to other people if you like and what's with the gransnet ad?

Anyway, you can't expect someone to be exclusive after one date, surely?

and no need to put his name here! I mean obviously it's a common name but on principle not cool.

Don't do anything, he liked you, he wasn't that into you, it's frustrating, it happens. Relax, chat and message, don't chase him. Dating can be fun it can take a long, long time to find the right person. Good luck.

But the fact that you know this, doesn't that mean that you have been online on the dating app, also? I have never used them so no idea how this works so pardon my ignorance if I am wrong with this!

He has your number, if he wants to see you again, he'll contact you. Simple as that. You could always make some other plans if you want to.

Online dating isn’t going to work for you I don’t think currently.
you are far too excited about an absolute stranger.
all you know about him so far is that he is able to be charming and hold a conversation for an hour.
you know nothing else about him, so getting this excited is disproportionate
don’t do anything, don’t think anything, just get on with your life

Do nothing, but not ‘and wait’ for him. Do nothing and have chats and dates with other people. That’s how online dating works, I’m afraid.

If he wants to message you he will.

If he doesn’t, he’s not worth your time.

Stop wasting your time thinking so much about it.

If he likes you, you’ll know. If you're confused, he doesn’t. Don’t reach out again - he’ll be in touch if he wants to meet again.

You’ll always get a random ‘I relentlessly pursued my husband and we’ve now been together 10 years’ or ‘my date didn’t reply for 3 weeks, turned out he was climbing Mount Everest and didn’t have signal’, but generally speaking you’ll know. Don’t chase.
