Erica...... I would have called him and not texted there and then myself just to see the mood he was in as I'd get a lot more from him and his intentions speaking than I would a text
I live in Seattle, the land of annoyingly introverted millennials who are afraid of talking on the phone. Or at least the guys I've met are.
I've called guys first in a cute/confident way (a couple weeks into dating) in the past, only to be met with slight awkwardness and no reciprocation later on, with them just going back to texting. This has happened two or three times, so I guess it's just made me gun shy.
I guess I should have responded in some way last night, I was just a bit taken aback since nothing about our first date seemed to be headed in that direction.

Oh my
Thank you for the answer
You want to go to London then.... Chatting on the phone and ALL hours is much preferred........ It's getting us blokes to shut up that's the trick lmao

Unless it is known that you are up at 1am you shouldn't have responded. Most people are asleep and do not want to wake up to chat with the inebriated.

I wish! I've heard dating styles are much different in Europe than in the US. Like, less of the whole dating-multiple-people-at-once thing. Is this true?
I honestly think social media has ruined relationships in some way, even if it's also connected more people who wouldn't have met otherwise.
We had just talked that same morning about how we're both night owls who are always up late. Which made it even more confusing.
I don't see where the confusion is then.
You told him you were a night owl, he thought you would be up at 1:00AM like many night owls yet you are confused about getting a text at that time of day.
Personally I think many (not all) of those who say they are introverts use that as an excuse not to learn how to be mature adults who can have a conversation with anyone anywhere.
In my youth it was called shy, which I was but I had to learn to get past all of that when I figured out I would be much more successful in life learning to deal with being shy appropriately.
One cannot find their comfort zone until they step out of their comfort zone.

Well yes and no on the multiple dates lottery....... I'd say that casual liaisons is fair game for anyone, but ( based on me and the people I know ) the majority don't really date others whilst dating someone.... Personally women I've dated would be annoyed to say the least if I were going out on other dates with others and wouldn't give me the time of day and I'm the same in truth.....
We have lots of social media and most use it ( I don't ) but the traditional way in pubs/clubs/bars is still the main way to meet people more often than not
I think the OP is overthinking things. Just answer the friggin' text instead of playing games with him. If he is only looking for booty calls, he will reveal that soon enough. It will just take you longer to figure this out if you play the "I'm not responding" game.
BTW, wanting a booty call doesn't necessarily preclude wanting a relationship. They are not mutually exclusive.
