I’ve been wracking my brain about this for over a week now and I’ve decided to resign myself to the Reddit Wisdom.
I (23F) went on my my first ever Tinder date(!). I came home absolutely beaming, “best date?? Ever???” I say to my roommate. My date (27M) and I had planned to have drinks, which two hours later evolved into us ordering something to eat. The conversation was never dull, we laughed and bantered, and had so many things in common that I actually stopped saying “oh my gosh, me too!” at some point during the evening because I figured it would’ve been overkill by then.
It felt as though we were trying to fit everything we could talk about into this one ever-digressing conversation, which just happened so naturally. There was flirtatious eye contact, and “You should come over for drinks sometime, I’ve got a rooftop at my apartment with the loveliest view!”, and “I’ll text you so that I can have your whole schedule in writing!”.
The restaurant had to chase us away after four hours because they were closing and when the bill came and I wanted to pay for half of it, he said “I’ll get this one, you can get the next one!”
We hugged goodbye and he kissed me on the cheek.
I text him the next morning saying I’d had a wonderful night and I was looking forward to seeing him again. He read it and then only replied the next night saying “I want to be honest that I didn’t feel any real connection for another date like that. It was very nice to hang out and I would very happily do it again as friends”.
How could I have gotten it so wrong??????????
I thanked him for his honesty and said I would be happy to hang out as friends too and that I felt I owed him for forking out on the bill - I said this fully expecting to never see this man again. However, he replies within minutes saying “Hahaha I will certainly accept that invitation. Let’s find a date in the next couple of weeks”
Colour me confused! What’s his deal?
*Edit: age and sex of date
