When it comes to contacting someone after a first date, most people get hung up on when you can reach out. Don’t. The “when” of the follow-up text is the least important part. As long as you don’t text your date seven weeks later, you’re probably doing fine.
In this manner, do I text him first or wait?
If you’re the only one keeping the conversation and relationship alive, every time you text first and KEEP texting first when you’re getting very little back from him – you’re wasting your time. Spot the signs from the start. Know when to accept it and walk away.
Additionally, who should text first after first date?
Some people might say that men should text first (assuming there is a man in the picture) after a date, because of chivalry and tradition. Here’s your PSA that that is so not the case. If you’re interested in someone, make that clear.
