Haven't heard from him after a date

Been on a date recently, we went to a restaurant. He paid and opened the doors for me. He asked me before the date if I'd prefer a hug as a greeting, just a handshake, or no touch at all as he wanted me to feel comfortable. We went for quite a long walk afterwards. We hugged for hello and goodbye. After we parted he texted me saying to let him know when I'm home. I let him know. The next day I decided to text him. I said I had a good time and added a question about whether he logged me out of a job search website (he let me use his laptop to edit my resume as a small favour), as I forgot to log out. He reacted with a heart emoji to the 'good time' bit and said he logged me out. Since then we've been silent for like four days already. He's been active on social media. Should I message him again or leave it? I wanna see him again but don't know if he wants to.

Well I got flamed slightly, earlier in this thread for saying don’t bother, I admit that I am quite cynical but this is what I expect and I would be mortified to get a message like that, sorry OP

I think it’s good that you now know. Dust yourself off and start again with someone else. Using the term ‘chicks’ for women is weird, dated and sexist. Wonder if that came across on your date? Just something to think about.

I was waiting for someone else to notice that as @Tcbay52 never answered me.
