    I feel stupid for even writing this but here goes.

    I kissed a guy a few weeks ago and he asked me out on a date after that. We went for dinner and i thought it went well. After the date i heard nothing from him so about a week later i decided to bite the bullet and text him.

    We sent a few texts back and forth and i sent the last text he sent nothing since. Now my last text didnt have any questions or anything but still if he liked me he would have found a reason to reply. Am very down about the whole thing. I feel stupid cos it was only one date but it was the first time in ages i got really excited about a guy. I keep wondering did i do something to turn him off me.

    A friend thinks i should send another text but i dont wanna be desperate and chasing after someone who clearly is not interested. I guess im wondering has any one here been through anything similar?

    Plenty of people been through it don't worry! And dont text again, you are right to think if he wanted to reply he would. If a guy likes you he will show interest. It's great that you had a good date and keep the momentum going but don't go down the road of beating yourself up cause he hasn't been in touch. Keep your chin up and move on and the right guy will text back so don't sweat it!

    Don't text him. It's not going to happen.

    And that's ok.

    Maybe there wasn't chemistry. Not on both sides anyway.

    Work on your confidence.

    The Midweek Movie on rte the other night was " Maybe he's just not that into you " which was entirely about this kind of scenario and it's variations. The truth is as has been suggested if he's "that into you " he'll call and quickly .. and often. Personally I think it's manners to let someone know you don't feel like going on another date rather than just hoping they'll go away. Sadly I'm in the minority.

    The guy doesn't owe you anything. He doesn't have to explain why he has decided not to see you again after one date. You don't know what is going on in his life. He could have a g/f for all you know. What you do know now though is that he is not interested so back off and don't text him. He knows how to get in touch with you if he wants to see you. You don't have to prompt him. It doesn't mean that he didn't find you attractive, it just means that it didn't suit him and his circumstances to date you again. Do not text him as that would be chasing after him and would not be an attractive thing to do.
