I told you all in a previous post that I was going to need lots of advise now that I am venturing into the dating world again.

I had what I thought was a great second date.

He said he would call
I wrote him a Thank You e-mail for a great day. I got no response

What is the time frame for waiting before I give up hope that he will call?

I know I read something along these lines in a post a while back but I can't seem to find the post again
I'm sorry to make everyone repeat their opinions

Give it nine days, but don't worry yourself to death over it. Some people have busy schedules and others are set in their ways. Good luck.

Keep moving on to the next date if he calls he calls

Just give a little more time. Be patient and give him a little more time. Guys seem to be a lot slower than women when it comes to relationships. I hope he calls for the third date. Good Luck to you.

I wouldnt sit around waiting. If he calls great, if not NEXT....

I QUIT DATING

I'm scared to death to even think about dating again

me to i am afraid honestly

I've locked myself away in this horrible rental trailer & haven't done a thing since the 1st of this year.

I need to start getting out & about, or I'm afraid that I might permently become this terrible depressed person that I have let myself become.

I offered a harmless date at the mall of america maja.

really give it some time and see what , or who else is out there
dont let yourself place all your hopes on just one person that soon into getting to know someone go out hang with friends, family anything you might be surprised what you find or run into

lol longhair i remeber

Well, that is where a lot of the problem is....don't really have anyone to "hang" with Just my dogs & other pets, cause if it weren't for them....well, I just don't know.

take the dogs out in the park walk them join a community singles club they have them all over

Oh my....great advice if I didn't live in hicksville ky, lol

then there is no reason not to get out there
there is a alot of friendly folk around there

Check with your local church and see if they have some sort of mixer or community happening going on
bowling ally? bingo hall volunteer list?

We just got to get you over your shyness

Thank You everyone!!!! I really appreciate everyones response!

AnnG I know you are scared. I was.

I know what it is like to live in a very rural area. It's lonely and depressing.

I got tired of being lonely and took the leap. I'm not scared now. Just confused.

Dating etiquette has changed.digger and longhair biker Thanks. I taking your advise very seriously.

Now I have another question for everyone.

After 9 days or so would it be appropriate to send him a friendly e-mail and tell him I was thinking about him?

Something like that would have never crossed my mind 35 years ago?

Ann-get out there girl! You can do it. As for the phone call,move on. If he calls-great. But if not,at least you're out there making other plans. Good luck!

of course you can send an email saying hope all is well keep it light
and he may respond in kind
if not go out there and catch another one

keep trying one date not a relationship make. good luck in your search.
