So I had a first date with a guy I met off a dating app. We met up for drinks, and it seemed to go really well. The whole date lasted 2 hours because we didn’t realize the place closed at 10pm. We were the last ones to leave, and he said “wow we closed the place down”, I truly believe if the place didn’t close we would’ve stayed out longer. During the date I mentioned not being able to find a good Italian restaurant in my area, and he said he knew one and that if I would give him the chance to take me out again he’d love to take me there, I smiled and said they would be great. At one point during the date he wanted to bring my attention to something so he leaned in and touched my knee, which I thought was a sign of interest. We also briefly spoke about past relationships, and he told me his last relationship was a few year long and he said “so I’m not afraid of commitment. Anyway, at the end of the date he asked me how I was getting home and I said I would walk, he asked what street I was walking to and Then asked if he can walk with me since he was going to stop at his buddy’s house and he lived up that way as well (my date lives the opposite way). Anyway once we got to my street we hugged, I told him it was great meeting him, he said the same and then said “take care”. The whole date I got the impression he was into me, even on the walk home but that lackluster goodbye has me thinking differently now.
Also, let me just this was a total nice guy, like almost too nice! He was nerdy and sweet so there were no player vibes or just trying get in my pants vibes either lol.
How’s that “ending weird”? He was totally respectful, made sure you got home safe, didn’t try to push things…
Wherein lies the problem?
Well he didn’t walk me all the way home, I still had to walk a few blocks on my own which is fine and what I expected. I just felt like if he were into me he would’ve said something about seeing me again or at the very least saying he’d call or text.
He quite literally stated that he’d like to take you on a second date.
Have you text him saying you had a good time and got home safe?
No, he didn’t ask me to. I thanked him for the date in person and have always found that if a man is interested in you he will contact you again. I acted interested during the date, so if he’s interested there’s no reason for him not to contact me.
Next date show clear physical signs of interest in him. Move close to him, put your hands on him when possible, give him sexy eyes, and possibly even move in to try and kiss him.
This epidemic of people being confused on whether their dates like them or not has got to stop. Sure, a first date may involve just trying to figure out if there is basic chemistry, but after that one or the other needs to start giving clear signals if the intent is to take things more seriously. Constantly trying to figure out the other persons motives and feelings just leads to never ending frustrations.

Do it tomorrow. Tell him that you had a great time and hope to see him again.

Nothing about this seems weird to me but then again I wasn't there. If he walked you home he's either into you or he wanted a one-night stand. From the sound of it he doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would do that but again I wasn't there.
So ask yourself if what's the problem is is that he's just too nice

I think you are frustrated about the lackluster goodbye.
How did you imagine the date would end? Passionate kissing and a nightcap?
I think he was a gentleman all the way to the end.
Now do what others advised you to do and wait for his response. Then you will see.
As of right now, the ball is in your court.
I thanked him for the date in person and have always found that if a man is interested in you he will contact you again. I acted interested during the date, so if he’s interested there’s no reason for him not to contact me.
This is true, and if he is, then he will.
Sounds like the date went well to me, though I know we all tend to overanalyze the hell out of social situations after the fact..lol
From a female perspective, I don't agree with this advice, "Next date show clear physical signs of interest in him. Move close to him, put your hands on him when possible, give him sexy eyes, and possibly even move in to try and kiss him." This is behavior that's setting her up for sex on the 2nd or 3rd date and what if she doesn't want to move that fast? He'll say she led him on. A woman needs to get to know a man a little bit more before "putting hands on him", giving him "sexy eyes", and moving in to try to kiss him. C'mon. It's not necessary for a woman to be sexually aggressive like that to form a relationship with a man. If a man's interested, he'll get the ball rolling in that area.
Does he know exactly where you live? Perhaps he was respecting your privacy/safety concerns by not taking you all the way to your door.
