Was I being Too Quick?

[greengiant87]

Hey everyone, this is just something that has been on my mind today and would realy appreciate any adive you could give me. I went out on a first date with a girl that I met online on Saturday. We had been talking to each other through email for about 2 months and added each on Facebook. The date on Saturday couldn't have gone any better and she said she would love to go to the cinema and see The Inbetweeners as we both want to see it. So I text her today saying I would be in town for a meeting on Wednesday but if she was free in the evening would she like to meet up and see it? I haven't heard from her at all today. Did I ask maybe too soon after our first meet up or is she keeping me thinking what her answer is? I'm just really excited about this as I haven't felt this good about a girl in a long time. I hope I haven't asked her too soon after a first date. I am probably thinging too much into it!

It isn't the 50s anymore, waiting 3 days after the first date to contact can actually be detrimental instead of good. I met my gf online, went for coffee, and I asked her out for a second date the next day for dinner later in the week, its been smooth sailing since.

Don't over-analyze, don't worry, she will contact you when she contacts you.

If she's going to make you wait for an answer, that is just plain rude. However, maybe she lost her cell phone (unlikely), it broke (possible) or she lost her charger (possible). Either way, if texting doesn't work, call her. More people will ignore texts when they are busy, but they will answer a phone because a phone call could be important, while texts are generally just unimportant small talk.

Warning: never put your cell phone in your shirt pocket. Because when you lean over to flush a toilet, *plop*, the phone can fall into the toilet.

I think people get too caught up on texting. I know several places of business that will not allow you to use any electronic advice during the workday, including cell phones (banking, customer service, etc).

I don't know that you asked her out again too soon, but maybe she would just like a phone call. Plus, since you are asking her out for tomorrow, understand that it might be a little short notice. Maybe she already has plans and doesn't know how to tell you without sounding like she isn't interested (especially if she is).

Or she could have been abducted by aliens. Who knows. Don't work yourself into a panic until you know why you are panicking.

Good luck.
