I've been talking to this guy on Coffee Meets Bagel, and he can string together a sentence, seems personable, is pretty cute, etc. So I gave him my number and told him to text me if he wants and we can set up a coffee/drinks date. He texted me almost right away, but launched right into small talk again. ??? What am I supposed to do with this? He texted me a few minutes ago asking what books I like. We could be talking about that in person... I don't want to be some guy's texting buddy. I know I could bring up setting a date again, but I don't want to have to drag it out of him. He seems kind of nerdy and maybe a little shy, but I wasn't subtle.
I had a date tonight that went well but wasn't anything amazing. He was a good listener, asked interesting questions, and made a few genuinely funny jokes. But I think he was nervous and might not've come out of his shell. He was also more attractive than in his photos, which I've come to expect from straight men. (You guys can figure it out, I believe in you!) If he asks me out again, I'll probably go and see if I feel more of a connection, but if not I'll just let it go.
