Examples of what to text after a first date:
- “Thanks for a really great time. I had fun tonight.”
- “I had a really nice time with you last night. We should do it again sometime.”
- “Had fun tonight! Will you text me when you get home so I know you made it safely?”
- “Last night was super fun. [Inside joke from the date>.”
Similarly one may ask, how much should you text after a first date?
2 Wait a few hours after the date to see if they text first. 3 Wait 2-3 days after the date for a more traditional approach. 4 Start with 1 text a day and let things develop from there. 5 Text as often as you’d like if you two clicked.
Furthermore, what do you text a guy between dates? Follow up about a specific event or activity they mentioned during the date. If the person mentions a class they’re taking or a huge presentation at work that week, text them to ask how it went. “Showing interest in the person signals interest and real curiosity about getting to know them,” says Dr. O’Neal.
One may also ask, why do guys not text after first date?
People do this all the time — even if they enjoyed themselves on a first date, they’ll wait 24 to 72 hours before texting you again. A lot of people don’t want to come off as too desperate or clingy, so they like to play it cool early on during the first few dates.
