Advice_man agony auntHmm...I have had several blind dates over the last few years. In all of them, I never called back or tried to re-arrange a second meeting. Maybe just a polite text thanking for a nice evening. If i had the slightest interest I would say directly or by hints that I want a second date. I think this answers your question. Regards!

He may suggest another date at the end of the evening. More likely he'd ring or text in the days after if the evening went well. Beyond that I would say another date if probably not likely.

auntieloulou agony auntI think firstly, you should try not to pin all your hopes on one guy. Also, don't leave it for the guy to determine if you see each other again. If you feel at the end of a date that it went well, take the plunge and tell him you want to see him again and to text you to arrange. it will show your assertive and confident. If you are not comfortable with this and want the guy to ask, I think you know if a guy wants to see you again. i would give it up to a week, and if the guy has not called, he probably won't.

Mmmmm I guess it depends on the individual, its hard to say really. I know whenever I have gone on a blind date, a couple hours later I normally get a text saying what a nice time they had and then the contact continues from there.

Give it a few days, he may be a little shy, not all guys are full of confidence... failing that, there is nothing stopping you contacting him first, it shouldn't always be left to the guy.... Its good to have a little chasing going on, but there is no harm in you contacting him and saying you had a nice time etc.

Good luck!

shawncaff agony auntI have to say that personally, at the end of a blind date, I usually do not say anything like "I want to see you again." Rather, I thank her for the evening and then take a few days to think about whether I want to see her again.

Some people tell me that's waiting too long, but I need the time to consider whether to ask her out again. I am maybe an extreme case. So I would say in 2-3 days in you do not hear from him, it means he is not interested and it's time to move ahead to someone else.
