Such an L.

If/when she responds will probably determine what happens going forward.

if its not looking to continue im going back to just not dating for awhile like i planned. sigh.

Clinginess comes from anxiety. It is an easy way to lose relationships. Even if she does return the text, your anxiety will continue to manifest in other ways.

Try to work on this. And good luck

What does smoothly mean? Was there any actual chemistry?

No glaring red flags from either side. Got to know more about each other and shared some laughs.

That's good, but still, was there any chemistry? Every time I have gone beyond a first date there were obvious sparks. And usually at least some making out as well.

Well personally I make it a rule for myself not to pressure for any intimate contact on the first date. if thats what killed it so be it.

There were enough sparks to me to at least explain if there wouldnt be a 2nd date. At the end of the date it almost seemed like she didnt want to get out of the car.

The only other thing i can think of is that she is the kind of person that says yes to a date simply cause i asked and has a hard time saying no so she just doesnt respond.

If she didn't want to get out of the car, she likely expected you to make a move. If the date went well, going for a kiss isn't that much pressure. It can just be a peck, but usually they will make it more than a peck. I worry that the MeToo movement (which I fully support) has made some men lose the ability to be assertive at all or show that they have interest. Assertive does not equal aggressive if done properly. Also, I have never initiated more than a simple kiss on a first date (but many of my dates have).

However, if she did expect you to make a move, then I would think she would respond to your text and want a second date? Hard to say though. Some people want some intimate connection to prove that there is chemistry and potential.

You don't think that is a long time without a response? I don't think I have ever had anyone take that long when it turned into something.

Okay, I will agree if sent late at night, I would wait until the following evening to be concerned. I concede there.

Still though, usually when a strong connection after having a date, they message me first thing in the morning if I had sent at night.

It was a holiday yesterday also, people had a long weekend. Give it a couple days, don't text again, just try to be patient and occupy yourself with something else.

I feel sorry for the earth's population, 'cause so few live in the U.S.A. At least the foreigners can copy our morality, they can visit but they cannot stay.

Id be terrible at dating then if I ever ended back on the market. I hate texting. I take hours to respond to my friends. But yeah at 24 hours probably not interested by then.

TC any news?
