Who should text first after first date?

[Anonymous]

Why?

Guys

Girls

[Jjpayne]

I said, girls, But I totally agree with guys because I would. Which leaves the question... are guys allowed to text after the date, or is that clingy?

I personally would just like the friendship, to be honest.

I texted with a girl from my online school and had fun, we just had a simple phone call and I enjoyed texting back and forth after.

Lots of lols and lots of fun.

I guess texting is kind of like GAG in a way.

I wonder how many of these girls who said the guy should be the first to text afterwards, also expect the man to pay...

If I take you out, put effort in and pay for you... The least you can do is text a simple thank you afterwards. I mean seriously... Are you even capable of doing anything in life?

Both? The earlier the better. It's wrong to assume the guy should text first because 'that shows he's interested'. There's nothing wrong with being a girl, taking initiative and showing a guy you're interested...

Eh, both? Who ever beats the other one to the punch.

If the guy asked the girl out for the first date I think the girl should text the guy first the next day. (Assuming the date wasn't a disaster or anything.) It's a nice courtesy to thank the guy for the date, especially if he paid for whatever they did or ate. And vice versa if the girl asked the guy out.

Women are so picky a guy shouldn't waste time on them until THEY make the effort. When i was younger i did the traditional thing and got nowhere... Then i realised most women will use men just for attention and keep them on the hook, so started ignoring the shitty ones and only gave those my time who earned it.

[Kkaos]

So damn true, I learnt that as well.

[sadismyname]

I always wait for the guy to text me because i'm so afraid if i text him first and he's not that interested. But i don't think there's a should. You text if you really liked the other person and you can accept being rejected.

Girl should with at least simple thank you. Guy made the first initial step of asking the girl out, so the girl should show she is also interested but personally I write first as I don't mind

[Virgin1992]

I like it if the girl texts first. Because then I know she is interested, but it is no "should", I can write first too.

[GingerGuy]

Either or, as long as someone does. There should be no "games" like this. That's when things go wrong because people don't communicate, and then make assumptions. Which usually aren't true.

[Treble28]

Doesn’t matter. I usually send a text after the date though, before or after his I don’t know, but just to say I had a fun time, got home safe, etc.

[SirRexington]

Girls. I'll be too afraid. I don't want to seem too desperate. Even though I am.

[rain3xile]

this definitely true haha

[PeachyyPrincess]

I usually do to say thank you and tell them I had a good time well only if I did otherwise it's just common courtesy to say thanks

[Hayleyaaa]

Whatever feels right. But I l prefer to wait for the guy to text first after date shows if he is really interested or not

[MysteriousDarkness]

Same can be applied to women.

[HuangNova]

Doesn't matter. Voice your opinion. If you had a good time text him first. If he did he will do the same. If you don't he will either think it went wrong or just forget about you.

[darksmoothV]

I voted guy but that's because I'm extremely lazy when it comes to dating.

[TheOtherManOnTheSide]

Text? Fuck that! Talk. Fuck. Text is just if it's a quick "hey I'll be there at 9" kind of thing

[Brihat]

Well it depends if the guy was totally into you then you should take the first step because clearly he is more interested. In such situations men are always taught not to be so "thirsty" so they will hesitate to text first

[Bklynoor]

Why should we even text? Just book a hotel right after first date 😂😂

[RumEro]

it doesn't matter who , i think the one who is more comfortable with the other person will text first

[NavyJoe]

Either. Why does it matter?

I always text to make sure they get home safe, but I don't see why it has to be assigned to one gender to text first

[MysteriousDarkness]

Either one can text first and it should not matter.

[RenaultChar]

Honestly it shouldn't be defined, most of the time it's a guy. But ladies if you really like him do it first guys will love it.

[shannandbob]

why should we wait on a text if want to get back up with him why not just send text
