I met a guy in the store. he asked how he could see me again. I suggested we exchange numbers so we did. but he hasn't texted. should I text first?

Absolutely, there's no harm in taking the initiative and sending a text first. If you're interested in getting to know him better and potentially meeting up again, sending a friendly message is a great way to show your interest. Sometimes, people get busy or are unsure about when to reach out, so taking the first step can help move things forward. Keep it light, casual, and friendly. You might say something like:

"Hey [His Name], it was nice meeting you at the store! I enjoyed our conversation. How's your week going?"

This lets him know that you're still interested and gives him an easy opening to continue the conversation. If he responds positively, you can take it from there and see where the conversation leads. If he doesn't respond or seems disinterested, don't take it personally – people have various reasons for their actions, and it's not a reflection of your worth. Either way, sending that initial text shows your confidence and willingness to engage, which can be appreciated..

Thanks for your advice! I texted him yesterday and he asked me out for drinks tonight. Fingers crossed!

You should check with your local laws & ordinances & if it doesn’t say anything about texting a guy first I think it would be ok to do so & you should.

I mean if you want to why not it don’t hurt texting first
