Size is no deterrent from anxiety, trust me.

How is it, that after all this time, you are still baffled by dating?

Probably because based on everything he's posted, he never gets past the second date.

No! Call her once if she doesn't pick up leave a message, if she doesn't call back you have your answer.

If she does pick up make some small talk and ask her out.

End of story and put all this wondering to bed.

Does it sound like she is not interested or should I wait until tomorrow? Or maybe she is still sick or sleep but I think it's weird I didn't get a response to showing concern. Oh well I will see what happens by the end of the night.
Anyone that can't text back is-
-A:At work and can't text
-B:Screening calls
-C:charging phone
-D:has anothet man/woman
-E:ignoring you

If that had happened yesterday then I would have felt that it was no point since it was the day after the date. But since she responded back and forth yesterday I don't want to jump to conclusions yet. But I guess I will try and call this evening and see if she answers around 10pm and leave a message

You know, I agree with bebe. Ideally, I think you should have called the first time instead of all this texting (texting is a way to maintain a friendship, but not form a romantic relationship). But you can't undo the past so why worry about it. A quick call just telling her you hope she feels better won't be desperate--not the same way texting more would come across. Just try to keep it short because you know she's sick enough to go home from work (unless she is the one who extends the conversation) and maybe end it by telling her you will call again in a few days when she's feeling better.

I left my cell at work tonight on accident. It's sitting on my desk slowly dying as I type. You can add:

-F:Is a Luddite who doesn't think of cell phones much

to the list.
