So after a very chatty date with a good-looking, intelligent guy, we parted with a friendly hug. He did not indicate that he wanted to see me again. HOWEVER, after I got home I received a text that told me I smelled wonderful and asking what scent I was wearing.
We got along great during the date, and seem to agree about a lot of things. I found him very attractive. But he didn't give me any vibes one way or the other. Recently, I've come to trust my ability to gauge men's interest in me, so I'm a little confused. I'm actually very good at reading people.
The interesting part here is that this guy works in the mental health field and has done a lot of research about body language and what it means. I can't help but wonder if knowing what he does, he just masks his body language. Overall, he gave off a very neutral, but attentive vibe.
So do you guys think he wants to go out again or not?
Tell him you'll give him the answer on the second date.
If he wasn't interested, he wouldn't have texted you.
^^^this.
I will say this though.. From MY experience a guy who believes I could be long term for him makes sure to ask me while I am in his presence, "when will I see you again" and attempts to persuade me to solidify a date for him.
If a guy texts me after a date instead of letting me know he is interested in going out on a date with me again.. I began to pay close attention to whether or not he just wants a hookup.
If you could care less either way than of course this is not an issue.
Either way he has some type of interest. I'd go with the flow if I were interested to see where it takes me.. Good luck!

He's interested. I was shy and reserved with a woman myself a few months ago and she is my GF now. Not all Guy's get smoochy or aggressive right awat. That was a nice compliment. Tell him you will wear it again for him.keep us posted and all the best.

Lol, after reading everyone else's responses, I apparently do not attract the type that play it cool. Now this has me wandering what is it about me that makes me attract somewhat aggressive type of men. I started a thread about this a while back too. Yikes!
I think you shouldn't be giving him this much head space after one date (and I say this after years of dating experience). You'll know if he's interested when he actually asks you out again - in the meantime make sure your life is full and that you are still trying to meet other guys until one steps up and tells you he wants to date you exclusively.
If he's complimenting you on how you smelled, that should be a clear indicator that he's interested in you.
Smelling good is HUGE for me when it comes to dating. For me, if I find you not smelling very well when I'm around her, I immediately lose interest. I can understand that if you're just getting off work and you're not at your best, that's completely OK. But if you've got time to freshen up or shower, and you don't, it's like my brain senses a disturbance in the force.
And believe me, I work in a disgusting and smelly environment. I go great lengths to make sure that I smell amazing when I get out of the shower.
He might be a bit shy...but clearly he is interested. I would reply in the manner that TheImportersWife suggested.
