and you hadn't communicated with the person by the end of Wednesday, wouldn't you assume that you were NOT going to see them again? I hate to be juvenile about this type of thing, but I know he's not that busy and he's logged back on the dating site where we met a few times, so he's had plenty of time to contact me if he was going to do so. He sent me a text like 10 minutes after we left our date saying that it was a pleasure meeting me, but obviously it wasn't since I haven't heard from him, so that must've just been his idea of a polite blow off.

Some people actually adhere to those unwritten stupid "wait period" rules of dating that i can not for the life of me understand. It is very possible he was trying "not to seem to pushy" by rushing to call you. It is very stupid and i know people that abide by it religiously

He could have contacted you, sure, but he hasn't. You are interested in him, why not contact him yourself?

Yeah, but if he was doing that, I would think Wednesday would've been the "ok" day to contact me. Anything after Wednesday is just rude if you want to see the person over the weekend.

Because when he sent me the "nice meeting you" text, I said "You too. We should do it again." and I think that's enough encouragement.

Give it some time. Online dating can be a great way to meet people, but...I have found that no matter how much fun we had, those guys logged back on the site the next day and the next and the next.
I had many issues with the last guy I met online. I couldn't figure out if he was interested in me and he seemed to be always logging on. It took some time for us to trust each other and be comfortable in a 1:1 situation. Turned out he was very interested in me but was intimidated (for some crazy reason he thinks I'm really smart lol). He also later admitted that money was an issue. He said he could tell I was used to going nice places and he didn't feel he would be able to keep up. He liked me but continued to look for someone he felt was more on his level.
The bottom line is it is really hard to get in someone's head if you don't know him. I would give it a few days. If you don't hear from him, I think it is fine to send him a simple note like hey how are you or a smiley face. Something cute and friendly but not asking if he likes you. He might be worried you don't like him, he could be a dog, who knows? Just keep it simple and let it flow.
But I know it's frustrating. I finally got mine to open up and have a normal relationship. Now we are engaged!
Let me ask you this - do you like this guy? Is he someone you think you want to get to know better? If so - contact him and ask him out. If not - then it doesn't really matter anyway. If you ask him out and he's not interested, so be it. You never have to see him again.
Not necessarily. He might have been slammed at work. Heck, after my first date with MrsCPG, I had to go on a television shoot that lasted five days. Then I had to look for her number which took two days more. By then, she had gone out of town on biz. So we weren't able to get together until two weeks after our first date. In the meantime, we had both gone out with other people.
