So I've gotten this before but not sure if its interest, a blow off, or just being curteous.
I had a first date last night with a guy I met on a dating site. The date seemed to go well, we met a bar, and then he asked me to join him for Pizza afterwards, which I did. So the whole date last about 4-5 hours. At the end of the date, when he walked me to my car we hugged and I thanked him and told him it was nice to meet him, and then when I started walking away he said "umm, so give me a call or text me!" so I paused a second and then said "well, you have my number why don't you call me" and he said ok and then explained that he probably won't call me until Tuesday because he'd be crazy busy at work today, and then is going to crash afterwards, so I said "ok, good luck at work tomorrow".
So I've gotten the "give me a call" thing after dates before (first dates) and was wondering if that's really interest or tongue and cheeck? I think in this situation he might've had some genuine interest but not totally sure.
Since this was a first date and you don't know him well yet is there really any reason at all to think he does not want to chat or meet again?
Until proven otherwise I found it best to take someone at their word.
If you do otherwise you are setting yourself up for failure because you already don't trust them and that
usually turns to disaster in the long run.
If people would quit comparing present company to past company their dating and relationship lives would be much easier.
Just because one person said or did something does not mean the next person will say or do the same thing.
In this case though you already don't trust him because of your comparison of him to others in the past so you may as well look for the next one to compare and toss aside.

Yea I guess it stems from getting so many mixed messages from others. But you're right, thus far he has given me no reason to not take what he says at face value.
Not that I am making excuses... but I guess I am. If he's in a secure location, he can't bring in anything like a cell phone that can be used to copy secret info or transmit data. It's not that uncommon for military or military contractors.
Yep.my husband is often at a level of security where they may not have phones...he's a Navy ITC.

Every time a guy says that, he always pulls this Slick Rick move like a modern Rico Suave.. I think people say that to look cool or something.
I usually don't call. And, if they resort to calling, just that line in itself turns me off. So it's pretty much the kiss of death at that point, and I don't return the call.
Kinda pointless to make such a lame remark. Really? Ok- I'm so gonna call. Yeah right.
I'm assuming if he does contact me, it'll be this evening, since he only contacted me in the evenings prior to our date. If I don't hear from him tonight, I think it'll be safe to write him off.
