I just want to ask you all for your opinion.

I have spent most of my 20's single but dating, and recently decided that I do want to try an LTR. So recently I turned a new leaf to strengthen my boundaries by being intentional and observant with all my interactions, and start dating with purpose. The results have been pretty good so far, but my hamster is spinning I think.

I (28F) have been making an effort to go on more dates and practice being more assertive and social. I've been on a few with men I've met in person and joined a dating app as well. I met (29M) online and we spoke on the phone a few days later. The conversation was really easy and interesting and light, so when he asked to meet up to hang out I was down for it and excited to meet him. He was initially trying to set up something more private (Netflix n chill), but I told him I would rather be out, so we made plans to meet in the city. I met him Thurs night and he suggested we go to dinner, we went and had a great time. We talked for hours, there was def sexual chemistry in the air, we laughed and had a great deal in common, one of those nights where you don't notice the time flying by. We finished dinner and he suggested we walk and talk some more in the park, so we did. We got to know a lot about each other, had a lot in common and I felt very comfortable, which to me is great for a first in person date.

When I was ready to leave, he walked me to my car, we talked about how much fun we had. Through the night he was dropping hints that he would like to see each other again. E.g: we spoke about our fave video games and he wanted to teach me how to play his and vice versa. He walked me to my car, we hugged. He looked back smiled and said 'we definitely need to do this again' I agreed and we said goodnight. I could have kissed him but honestly we had such a great time that I enjoyed the pace, plus he is very sexy and I didn't want to tempt fate.

Anyways that was Thursday night, he did ask me to text when I arrived home safe, I did and he said texted back 'had fun!' and that was that. Other than that I haven't heard from him since Sunday. I texted him (during the games, he's a big sports fan) and asked if he liked scary movies, he said yes. I said I was thinking of going to see one if he was interested later on that evening. He mentioned that he was watching the games when I asked him what his plans were for the day so I said enjoy and let me know if he was interested. That was the last response from either of us.

I'm not used to..for a lack of better phrasing...men not being on my jock after a date. I usually get some sort of call or text, at least saying hey within a day or so of a date, so I'm a bit nervous thinking all that talk may be him was just being polite with the blow off.

TL:DR: (28 F)Went on a great first date (29M), but no follow up after.

Should I be prudent and just chalk it up to a great first date but his interest didn't really go beyond that night? Or am I overthinking and should give him some time to set up date 2 before writing it off? Did I give him mixed messages by not kissing him?
