Guy texted next night after 1st date, then hasn't reaponded... Why?

[Katebfun]

Had a fun date with a man, he texted me the next night asking how my day was. I responded back 1/2 hour later asking a question back. Then nothing!. Why even text in the 1st place, is he playing a game?

[Sevenpointfive]

he probably just wanted to know if you were still interested. the ball is in your court basically. he wants you to text him. to want him. not a guy i'd suggest dating. because this is the game he has learned and is probably doing it to five other girls. if he loses you, or thinks he is, you'll know soon enough.

stop texting back. don't play games.

dating is a stupid ritual that insecure people do. you either like them or you don't. you don't need the ritual anymore

[Katebfun]

No the ball is in his court.. what are you talking about? I asked him a question so therefore he has the ball. No I'm not planning on dating this person.

then be clear in your response. you are a seminal receptacle any time he wants

[OlderAndWiser]

Maybe he is in a relationship with someone else, decided talking to you was too risky, and would feel stupid explaining that to you. Or something else that involves another woman.

[Alisonqueen]

He likely texted the next night out of politeness or curiosity, but his subsequent silence suggests he either lost interest, got busy, or realized he wasn't feeling a strong connection, and didn't know how to gracefully bow out.

[NathanDavis]

maybe he's just one of those guys who hear someone online "make her wait for days and she'll be all over you"

[zagor]

What is the time frame here? If it has just been a day or two he may be busy.

[Katebfun]

Today is day 2

[zagor]

That isn't too long. Something may have come up.

Or someone.

[msc545]

Do you have his phone number? If so, DM it to me and I will call him and ask him for you, then DM you back with what he says.

There is no other way for me to help you with this.

[slatyb]

He's not that into you.
