Hi, recently I went on a date with a guy and I thought it went okay. There were points in the date where I was really laughing at what he said and we had some good conversation. But there were also some awkward silences, I didn’t feel like I was being 100% myself & I disliked how he seemed unsure of himself, like I was taking the “lead” (e. g. I held doors open, I walked in front of him, I asked more questions in the convo etc.).
I decided to give it one more chance and said yes when he asked me on a second date, just so I could confirm my feelings and see if maybe it was just first date jitters or something else.
What I want to know is if his level of enthusiasm for me should be considered a red flag. We met online and before our first date happened he was already texting me a lot (pretty normal?). But after the first date (this might be my bias) because I don’t know how I feel and I’m not that invested in the convo, it feels like he doesn’t have anything better to do besides text me?
Some times he’ll send me 3 texts, I won’t respond, and 2 hours later he sends me 6 other texts just to try and keep the convo going.
One last thing is we haven’t even gone on our second date yet and he’s already asking if I’m free on weekends for our third date. At this point it’s turning me off and making me hesitant to even try going on a second date. I don’t know how to stay open minded with him anymore.
