Been out on one date...text back and forth a few time.
I asked him if he wants to meet twice but he say he was busy with work until the end of Nov. and would "totally" want to meet up with me soon. - I am thinking that he is not really interested because he does have work on weekend (16 hr shift for 3-4 days) but he couldn't meet me during the weekdays?

Anyway...should I conclude that he is not interested and send a "thank you" text for not leading me on? I just want to send a text with "thank you" and see how he reacts?

Advice?

If he truly wants you, he will make time. And don't thank him.

Uh, I wwould be rather confused and wary of any women who texted me that. Enough so that I may not bother responding. It comes across as very immature and insecure sounding to the point where it's a feminist attitude that says all men want to take advantage of women at a times. Yea, such an attractive attitude :eyeroll:

Uh, yeah, this.

I'd never say thanks to a guy for not leading me on... Like what?! If a guy isn't into me, I don't bother him at all, I move on. If you text him weird cryptic stuff you just come off as a weirdo.

It would be guy saying over text "thanks for not looking at my wallet often and asking me to buy everything, so many women are gold diggers"

Lol, yeah. I don't know what OP is trying to accomplish by texting him that.

OP, just relax. He knows you'd like to see him again, the ball is in his court. If hes interested he will make a move, but in the mean time just keep doing your own thing!

Ah, but he IS attempting to lead you on. If he wasn't, he'd just say, "I don't see this going any further."

I don't do the texting thing--I think it's garbage communication--but if a guy told me he was busy, I'd just go on my merry way. No time for analysis. Move on.

What does he do for work?

[and what's the rush?]

Send him a hand written thank you and a $25 gift certificate to the Red Lobster.

You're welcome,
Mr. Manners

If I had ever got that I'd feel obligated to send something back. Those Cheddar Bay Biscuits are delicious.
