Well, Mr. "Too good to be true" might be just that.
He:
a) enjoyed himself and wanted to stay longer
b) didn't ask for my phone #, didn't walk me to my car, gave me a hug and said "I will e-mail you"
Ha-ha, whatever. I will be shocked if I hear from him again.

Well, did YOU enjoy YOURself?
I bet you he got a lot of emails! He had a pretty amazing profile.

This one was another guy called "too good to be true" as in Monday's chat.
>> didn't walk me to my car, gave me a hug and said "I will e-mail you"
I have committed this sin before purely because I didn't want to look like a stalker. I have since learned from the boards that it is considered a red flag not to walk to the car and have modified my behavior.
When you say that he wanted to stay longer -- did you cut it short?
I had a meet once break in at the 30 minute mark and tell me that I must have to get to my next appt (I had vaguely told her that I had an afternooon appt)- since I'd never gone only 30 minutes before I took that as a "next" and gave her the exact treatment as above only instead of promising to do anything such as email I gave the "nice to meet - keep in touch".
This stuff really helps me.
I wish I had found this site years ago.
Because I too, felt that walking them to their car,
when you were 'meeting in public' was like
stalking behavior.
See, OLD is so different to me than 'real dates' RLD.
Where you pick them up, open the door, they get in the
car with you, etc etc.
It's just all so confusing.

We met at 8pm. At about 10 the waitress came up and asked if we wanted anything else and I was kind of feeling that I could be done for the night but his body language was very clear that he didn't want to go yet and I said ok and he ordered another glass of wine. Finally at about 11:30 I proposed that we split for the night.
I hope he doesn't expect me to e-mail him.
In my experience with old I know that when someone likes you/wants to see you again - they will move rather quickly and set up the next date.

If you ever have a question - just ask - I can help you whenever I can and so are the others here. I find this board very helpful and comforting at times. People here are very nice.
>I hope he doesn't expect me to e-mail him.
I would not expect you to email me first. I would however expect to sense some genuine enthusiasm. I'm generally not too interested if the return email is "I had a nice time". If they also respond "and would like to do it again" then I am more re-assured.
I don't have a lot of free time to be chasing (and forget about it when both people have young kids) so anyone who's looking for someone to be pursuing them HEAVILY would just not be a match for me. I'll probably be single a good long time.
