Great date on Saturday....

I had a wonderful first date with a guy on Saturday....it actually lasted 10 hours. He drove to my home (an hour away from his) and we spent the day shopping, driving, dining out and laughed, joked and had fun the whole time. There was not one awkward moment. I have never felt so comfortable with a guy so quickly. He seemed totally comfortable, too.
When he left he kissed me (for about 10 minutes....lol) and said two times during the evening that he had a really great time.
Problem: I haven't really heard from him since. I did text him the next day just to let him know that I had a great time and to thank him. He texted back briefly and said that he had a great time, too and that he was going to VA for a few days and would call when he got back.
He went to VA for work on Tuesday and Wednesday....I just hoped that we would be seeing each other this weekend and that he would call on Thursday night.
Was I expecting too much? Does he fit into the *He's just not into you* situation yet or is it too soon to tell?
I never know what to expect and try not to get my hopes up too much but I felt a connection with this guy like I NEVER felt before.
I am still emailing and meeting other guys ......but really interested in him.
What do you think?

I've actually never had anyone tell me that before.....maybe I shouldn't be so trusting....
It's funny, I have a ton of common sense but didn't date for years, so I find that my skills are rusty. I can only go by what my gut tells me to do, though.
Well I heard from him. Last night he sent an email stating that he had been visiting his parents for the weekend. It was his mom's birthday and that now he was back in town (10:00 Saturday night) and at a coffeehouse with his best friend, John. They were making a Match profile for his friend at that moment. He said that maybe they'd send the profile when it was done so I could critique it....He said he'd talk to me soon.
Very strange! I haven't responded yet, mainly because when he wrote I was talking to someone online. Not sure how to respond to this and wonder what the point of the email was.

TRANSLATION FROM GUYSPEAK:
"Well my Saturday night date (I'd been talking to her for a couple weeks) -- turned out to be a bust. You're off the back burner for now. Ready to go out again?"

I don't think this in itself is a problem - just keep your expectations low and see if any other unexplained disappearnces happen. It's too early to be a launchable offense.
To be honest, he has never (in the two-three weeks I've known him) been real quick in his responses. I think this is a pattern for him. I am not rushing to get back to him....I'll let him do most of the work right now.
Your scenario could be a possibility, but not necessarily. I know he hangs out with *John* quite a bit. I wonder if he was just "accounting for his time" to keep me on the back burner.
I sincerely am wondering how mature he is....there have been a few things that have made me wonder about him.
Oh, well...not closing the door, but not being the doormat either.
Incidentally, the guy that I've been im'ing and that I was going to meet next Saturday called last nigh. While we have a ton in common, I really dislike his voice (whiny) and personality. He, also, told me something that was a big red flag. In addition he is two hours away. I sent him a polite email letting him know that I don't think we should meet at this time. Another one bites the dust.
