That sounds like a very successful date to me. Not for something that should be a hookup, no, but an actual relationship? I’d be thrilled and definitely respond to his text.

That’s what I am worried about . I don’t want it to be hook up.

Well good news then, he acted like a gentleman who wanted to show you interest and care, but not get laid right away. Text him back and go on more dates with him, lady

So, you didn't want it to be just a hook-up, but for your very first date, with a guy you don't actually know, you have him pick you up at your home, (so now he knows where you live) and later you invited him in, again on the first date.

Excuse me if I'm confused, but it sounds like you were intending for a hook-up to happen.

Like Belle said, you need to relax and slow down.

That fact that he was surprised when you told him to pick you up at your home was a good sign. He's surprise indicates that most of the women he meets don't do that - which is what I expected when I was dating. In fact, when I was dating, there was a cellist with the Philadelphia Philharmonic that I was going to go on a first date with, via an internet dating site, but when she said she was having a party at her home, and that I should show up there, I bailed. Not an appropriate place to get to know someone.

A first date, without you knowing the person, should be in a neutral public place where everyone can feel at ease and safe.

Am I wrong to think it like that?

I haven’t reply because honestly I don’t know what to say, it’s not because I am playing games or anything like that.
Good grief. What he said is completely normal. I don't understand what you think he should have said instead?

This wasn’t first meeting/date.
And it’s not from online.

Plus I’ve been speaking to him since February when we met at my work place.


And he didn’t pick me up from my home at First last week when we first hangout
. I actually wouldn’t have mind maybe he did a lot of online dating and he knows what most women feel uncomfortable with.
And I respect him for that.


I do feel comfortable around him and speaking to him for so long, he maintains the same character so I know I am safe in his presence.

Maybe he will see inviting him to my home as “hook up” intended but he didn’t act on it anyways.

I am not even thinking about love right.

I am use to respectful guys being around me but I’m not use to guys who are so layback.

See him again and don't overthink this. Hopefully he will ask you out next time.

Pretty much anything better than: "well it was ok" would work for me.

So little update

We got together yesterday,
Exactly a week after we last saw each other.
We did talk in between and there two attempts of seeing each other but our Schedule crashed.

Yesterday night was more of a Netflix and chill at my place.
And I am afraid it’s heading towards fwb, which I don’t want at all.

We didn’t have sex but we did make out like teenagers lol and he did make the move —yay!

He left my place really late around 3am and he did message me as soon he got home.
He didn’t say anything particular, just that he arrived home. Haven’t heard from him since
