Hmm, ok so from your responses maybe I wont text him at all and see if he texts me in the next few days and just be alone on NYE. Before the end of the date it really did seem like he liked me, but maybe he was just being polite.
Go ahead and text him! Apologize for being a bit off on your first date and explain that you have chronic headaches that often occur without warning. Offer to treat him to coffee in the near future as a way to make up for it.
Don't mention New Years. Give him space to respond. Don't send out any other texts unless he replies favorably. If he does, ask him if he has a favorite cafe and take him there.

This is a good approach.
OP, I got to say though... Why would you switch the place of the date, then expect him to know of other venues nearby when you knew that he was from a place 1h away? If you are in a similar situation again, take out your smart phone and use Google ...
I don't know. I feel really awkward in this place. I just moved here 2 weeks ago and I don't have a car, so I don't know the area at all. This is LA, and its huge and spread out. And he was born and raised in LA so I don't know I just still felt like he was the "host" since I moved here from NYC but maybe thats wrong
Ugh I feel so bad and stupid and helpless
Plus I couldn't stop talking on the date ugh im horrible
I'm getting a bad feeling that he didn't just text me when he got home, you know. That's the normal thing to do. If I wake up in the morning and there is no text, then I guess I will know. Although I suppose I already feel it bc he didn't text directly after the date. ugh

Well as you say LA is a huge place so I'm not surprised that he didn't know places near you, if he doesn't live locally.
All that negative self-talk isn't helping Aviva. What's done is done, it's not the end of the world!! Maybe shoot him a text saying something along the lines of you hope that he got home alright, thanking him for the date and express that you would like to see him again. He might think that you weren't interested since he isn't aware that you had a bad headache.
Even if it doesn't work out with this guy, it was just one date! Plenty of fish in the sea etc. Take care!
It could just be me, but the words, "It was really nice finally meeting you," are what I say to people to be polite. Could be he already has NYE plans, but I don't think he felt the same way as you did.
Yeah the "it was nice meeting you" threw me off too for sure.
I still want to text him today (and earlier if possible) but yeah I feel kind of a sinking feeling now like he just didnt like me bc why not a text by noon.
Alright well I already texted him something simple. So we will see. He better look at his phone soon!
