We had alot of laughs , I am sure the alcohol helped. We held hands and had a quick goodnight kiss. The second date was last Thursday. We met again and had drinks again laughing all night. He had his child over the holiday weekend and they went away to see family. I texted him yesterday to say Happy Easter and have not heard a word back. Do I just move on? We did not have sex but it touched just a little..Lastly, he had been either emailing or texting almost daily. Please help as I am ready to be alone the rest of my life.Thanks

 I totally agree with katiekate do not jump to conclusion and if you really wanna know a man and see if you can connect with him, then see if he can show you a nice time without alcohol. Sorry if I'm getting too personal but I think that sex should be the last thing on your mind at this time because you have been with him only for 2 dates and that too they were both under the influence of alcohol, and I believe you are a smart woman and I'm certain that you will make the right choice for your future. And hey what is that about "ready to be alone the rest of my life" . don't say things like that because if he doesn't contact you then he is not worth it, you deserve some one much better who can appreciate you for who you are and what you think .... don't loose hope, w8 a min :S I'm going to be 28 in exactly 1 month from now and I've not been on been on any dates nor have I had any relationship with anyone before so I guess I'm not qualified to answer your question XD. But honestly I think you deserve someone much more better than that, because the least he could have done is to call you which would hardly take a min or 2 and wish you or even a little message would have done. If he is serious about you he would have at least taken the time to tell you that he is unable to respond or let you know about him, out of 24 hours in a day I'm sure he could spare a few minutes for a lady that he is looking forward to. :S I think I'm talking tooo much XD think ill take a break b4 i get spammed or talking tooo much :P. Good luck and happy easter

Just sit back and relax...dont text him again, just wait for him to make the next move. He knows you are interested. Give him his space if you really want to get to know him.

the guys away with his child and you have only had 2 dates... Just leave him to it and if he gets back to you then great....if not then move on... Hes not worth it and its not like you have really lost anything after 2 dates..dont give up tho. Get back out there...match.com, plentyoffish.com, girlsdateforfree.com....theres loads of eligible men!.... Who are dying to meet someone as you are...just takes time!

 I wouldn't jump to conclusions so soon. Any number of things could be going on. But definitely do not contact him again until you hear from him first! The last thing you want is for him to think you're needy or clingy. Wait for him to respond, and if he doesn't, good riddance! You said both dates involved lots of drinking? I would recommend the next date be alcohol-free. It's a lot harder to evaluate your connection with someone when you are both under the influence.

 Umm, we are talking about one message unanswered yeah, .. on a holiday weekend, ..whilst you know he is away, ... with his child, ... right?
If so, then it means nothing imo, he could be busy, out of mobile range, devoting all his time to his child, who knows at this point. In any case tho, it is not exactly like a couple of dates obligates anyone to any sort of communication commitment. Take it easy, lest you look too needy!
Wait until he gets back, find out what he was up to, why he did not respond, and take it from there. You might be pre empting a bit here tho and it would be a shame to cause a scene that you guys need not have over a situation that does not hold at this point any obligation.

 If he does not answer you or contact you ,he is probably gone for good.
