Hey all, looking for a bit of advice.

I matched with two girls on Tinder recently and had some short initial chats, that mainly consist of me asking them out. ( No questions about her favorite color or dreams - I save that shit for the dates).I asked both of them out pretty early, and they said yes. The dates are now set—both of them scheduled about two weeks from today.

I know it's ideal to schedule something a few days after matching, but i am genuinely busy this weekend, all next week and one of them was on a vacation for a week.

Now I'm in that awkward in-between phase and not sure what the move is. Should I send a message or two in the meantime just to keep the vibe alive and show interest? Or is it better to let things breathe and then reach out a few days before to confirm and build the anticipation again?

I don’t want to overdo it and come off as needy, but I also don’t want to seem distant or let the attraction fizzle.

What’s worked for you in this situation?
