Why He Didn’t Call
It’s difficult for even the most confident dater to handle this; you’ve been out on a date with someone and you thought it was great, but then they drop off the face of the earth. You’re left wondering what the heck happaned. You usually just end up feeling very frustrated and a bit confused. Your friends do all they can to bolster your self esteem and assure you that it’s him and not you. But maybe it was. Here are five reasons why he never called you again;
1. There was no physical attraction
Though it’s tough to hear, this happens more often than you might think. Before you go out you might think you have lots of common ground, but that won’t compensate for a lack of physical attraction. It doesn’t mean you’re unattractive. It just mean that this one guy dind’t feel the heat. It happens so shrug it off and move on.
2. You talked badly about your ex
There’s really no reason to ever even mention your ex unless two things are true: your new guy asks you about him and you’re pretty solidly into your dating routine. If you hijack the first date conversation with rants about your slimey ex, well, no wonder you didn’t get asked out again. You should all know better by now.
3. You lied before the date
This one is mainly for internet daters. You need to stop posting photos that are ten years old on your dating profile. You’re fooling yourself if you think you still look like that. Furthermore, if you didn’t inherit a million bucks from dear old dad, don’t tell us that you did. Did you honestly think you wouldn’t get called on this? Why are you even surprised that he didn’t call you back?
4. You didn’t at least offer to pay
Chivalry ain’t dead, chicks. At least, not entirely. More often than not, a guy is going to be glad to pay for your first date, especially if he did the asking. That said, at least offering up your own cash is not only classy, it ought to be mandatory. Unless you want to be seen as a gold digger who is looking for someone to spoil her. And if you are that, then right on, sister. Good luck getting what you’re after. For the rest of us, this small faux pas might have just cost you date number 2.
5. He didn’t think you were interested
First dates are about paying attention to all aspects of your date. If he hasn’t called your for a second date, try replaying your first date in your mind. Do you remember him making a move to hold your hand but then you pulled it away to adjust your scarf? Or how about that old friend you ran into and just had to hug, just as he was getting ready to put his arm around you?
If you don’t remember then shame on you, you weren’t paying attention. On the other hand, if he did hol dyour hand and you didn’t feel so much as a tingle, then you probably don’t want another date anyway.
