Somebody please read the signals for me!

So...I met a guy from Match last night on a first date. Really nice bloke and had a lovely time. Lots in common and time flew. At the end of the evening we both said we had enjoyed it, quick peck on the cheek, and we both went our respective ways.

This evening I sent him an email through Match saying, among other things "I enjoyed last night" (so making it clear I'd like to see him again).

He has replied saying, among other things "Yes last night was good, didn't realise that much time had passed, so I must have been enjoying your company"

However, he hasn't asked to see me again. Do you think he is mulling it over, or do you think he is "just not that into me"?

I have absolutely no idea what to do now! Help please.....

    Well, you have gone and done it, so too late to ask what you should do. Unless you are so into him that you want to throw yourself over him, you should have waited for him to make a move. Now you have made your move, he does not need to bother so much, so you have cut yourself off from a channel of information.
    You might as well ask the Wizard of Oz to give you a big number as pay a Credit Referencing Agency for a so-called 'credit-score'

    He made positive comments about the time you spent together. It might just be that he had things to do, so had to come away from the online chat. Give it a day or so and see if he responds again. If he does great, if he doesn't it is his loss ;)
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Why play games? You want to see him again; make it happen.

    Really can't agree. Some (most) of us blokes are worse at reading signals than some of the girls.
    The dilemma of having to make the 1st move and when to do that is all part of blokey conditions. It's refreshing that you have felt able to do so.
    Cant really be much more help but it can do no harm to ask if he wants a repeat and if you don't then you may never know.

    Welcome to my world.
    Good luck.

    Sounds to me like he was letting you down but trying to do it gently with the 'I must have enjoyed your company' comment

    If he was interested he would have asked to see you again.

    Equally, she's interested in seeing him again but hasn't asked.

    Just ask!

    Considering she emailed him the same night as their date it would be pretty obvious she's interested yet he's not responding to this.

    I told you I had no idea how to play it! In my day you met a boy at a disco, "got off" with him and then you were "going out" until one or other of you "finished with" with the other.

    I was with my ex for 23 years so this is all new to me ;)
