Question - (14 April 2013) 3 Answers - (Newest, 14 April 2013)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

One of my clients (I'm a cosmetologist) set me up with her boyfriends friend. He never really texted me a lot but when he did he seemed nice. She informed me that he's really shy so I figured that's why he doesn't text a lot. He asked me out to lunch and we went. It was nice. He paid. He was definitely a gentleman. I really enjoyed myself. So we sat at the resturant for about 2 and half hours just talking and it ended because I had school which he knew beforehand. So he walked me to my car and we gave each other a hug. I kinda felt bad because I was having fun.so I texted him when I got to school saying I'm sorry I had to leave and I had fun and thank you. He texted back saying its ok I enjoyed myself to..it's been 2 days and I haven't text and he hasn't text me. I haven't text because I don't want to come off needy or desperate and I don't no why he hasn't contacted me. Does that mean he is not interested? Should I contact him? I feel like if he wanted to see me again he should reach out despite that he's shy. Maybe he thinks I should reach out because he treated.. I don't no please help

Text him. There is some sort of sily "rule" about waiting 3 days so he may be doing that so that HE doesn't come across as needy.

I personally hate rules like that, which are essentially just a form of game-playing. The last guy I dated texted me on the same day after our date and I was so happy to hear from him.

The guy before that, I contacted him the following day and he didn't find that weird at all and said he was happy to hear from me. If you like someone, why not let them know?

He'll probably be really happy to hear from you. If he doesn't reply then you'll have your answer. Either way, you've got nothing to lose by texting. Hope it works out.

oldbag agony auntHi

One text wouldn't do any harm, but if he doesn't respond leave it at that. I wouldn't be surprised if you hear back though so maybe just ask if he's free for lunch again
