So, I haven't even had a chance to talk to the guy...he's been kind of aloof since the date, and I assume he's "just not into me." :-) It happens all the time...you go out on a great date and then no real follow up. I would be bummed but okay...it's just the way it happens. I probably wouldn't have thought about it again, except he keeps texting me.
...like first thing the morning after the date and last night to say hello and to wish me a good night...He sends out random messages saying things like "You're awesome." "You're so cute and so much fun." But, no actual phone call or attempt to make plans again. Even though we have been texting, he also sent me a nice message on the dating site where we met about 10 minutes after a text.
I have responded back with something to let him know I like him too. In one text message, I asked him if he'd like to get together and go for a hike over the weekend, but he didn't really answer. Just answered that he'd be working in town on Saturday...which could mean he's busy all day working or, because of work, he will actually be close to me and it's a go (I live in town and he lives an hour outside).
It's all very vague and kind of annoying. If a man likes a woman, he lets her know and tries to see her. So, I have no idea what the random texts are all about. I have responded back to texts because I like him and don't want to be rude. But, I have no desire to have a text relationship with someone.
Not sure if it's too early to see red flags....(only one date a few days ago) or if this is the exact kind of stuff that only gets worse as things go along. I'm thinking of just ignoring any future texts unless he actually picks up the phone to call me, but don't like to play games. At my (and his age), I thought we'd be past this kind of stuff. He'd either want to make plans again or just late the first date be it.
