First date went great now the fun begins
| Sun, 02-06-2005 - 10:47am |
Hey guys,
I just wanted you guys to know that my first date went pretty great. I took your advice and limited contact and im glad I did because we had so much more to talk about. Only hitch, its only 10:39 am est and he called me already. Last night he said he wanted to see me again next weekend. Other then my concerns that he may be overly attentive I had a wonderful time and we had good chemistry and I really would like to see him again. How can I tell if this guy a Cling-on? Or is my streak of HJNTIY over?

We complain if they don't call and we complain if they do. They can't win! LOL

Well, personally, if I liked the guy, I would be psyched to hear from him so soon. Time will tell if it's just enthusiasm for you or not.

Glad you had fun! That is great news.
Well, a Cling-On is the one that won't go away even though you have asked them to so he doesn't fit that category. But he is very eager! Just take it slow and continue what you are doing with trying to limit the phone calls and IMs and so forth. Overly attentiveness can be both fun and annoying so just try to do what you can to keep it in check. But go out with him next weekend and have fun.

This is EXACTLY what I thought! LOL

Moonlight, I'm glad you had a good first date. Don't put too much stake on it, though; I had a fantastic first date a few weeks back, she even said "I want to see you again" and we set a second date for a few days later... which she cancelled, via email, the day prior.
The point is not to bring you down; the point is to remind us all that it might seem like it's going great, but there's always a ghost type lurking and potential. Hopefully here it doesn't work that way!
I'd say that a call after the date is generally considered by most to be a Good Thing, so let's not get all down about it. Just be happy he did, happy you had a good time, and optimistic that it'll go well in the future- and know that if it doesn't, you STILL had a good time and that you'll continue to be you and be happy.
YAWN!
Okay, I may be in the minority here, but you saw the guy last night and he called you on the phone at 10 freakin 39 AM this morning!? IMO, that is a little early on a Sunday to be calling someone. Especially after just seeing them the night before.
Other than that part though, he obviously is *very* into you. And that's not a bad thing!
I think he's just overly eager to make the transition from OLD to IPD (in person dating) but you can easily pull back on the reigns a little.
I think finding that happy medium is what it's all about. You know the ones, not too fast and not too slow.
You would not have posted any concern over it if it didn't bug ya out a little.....
Who isn't up by 10:30 am?

Yeah, but if you just left a date the night before? I dunno what time it ended, but say ya got home at midnight....? I dunno, to me it's a little early. I like to enjoy my shower, eat a nice breakfast, have a cup of coffee, read the Sunday paper, and just not be "bothered" yet.....
but then again, perhaps I am in a stage now where I am cherishing my "alone" time.....
He's probably just a really nice guy. If you're really into him, like I said in my first post, it's not a bad thing!
