nope, do not text him, it's his turn now!

men don't think like women do, believe me he does not intend to keep u waiting, he has simply forgotten to text you, if he keeps silent over the weekend just let it go.

forget him. he isn't going to call. he was a stranger anyway. and he was nice and polite about it. but promising to call and not doing it is pretty standard to avoid an awkward conversation.

Fatherly Advice agony auntLet me think today is Thursday, You met him Saturday. You offered a "Hangout". By definition hanging out requires no prior arrangements. You should hear from him Friday or Saturday. He is thinking weekday stuff now. Tomorrow afternoon his attention will shift to Weekend stuff. Really us guys cant think of two things at once.

AuntyEm agony auntFive days is nothing to a guy. Believe me he isn't sitting at home thinking 'Ok Im gonna keep her hanging for a few more days' He may have forgotten altogether.

Give him a week, if he hasnt called, ditch his number so you can't obsess over the situation.

You could drop him a 'hi how are you' text' if he doesn't answer then at least you know he's not that into you.

Don't take it personally, because really you don't even know the guy. He may even have a girlfriend.

Don't sweat it, if you don't hear from him, forget it!!

No harm in texting but if he doesn't answer, leave it at that. Try and keep things in perspective: he's just a guy you met in a bar, so why are you counting the days?
