Member #2,991First off, I’m horrible at dating. I try and have had MANY 1st dates, but nothing really ever comes of them. I’ve tried online dating and met this one guy that has all of the qualities I’m looking for. Well, he used to call me at night, but kinda stopped. I’ve been sedning him texts and he responds. We even made plans for a date on Saturday. I honestly want to talk to him daily because we laugh and what not, but I don’t want to be a stalker or even annoying for that fact. I’m almost afraid he won’t call for Saturday. What should I do?

Ask April MasiniKeymasterFirst of all, I’d really like you to buy my book, Think & Date Like A Man. You will learn everything you need to know — far more than I can tell you in this answer — to be a successful dater by reading this book. It’s a quick read. You’ll love it. It will help you. Click on the link above for Dating Advice Books, and order it. If you’re only getting first dates, you’re doing something wrong, and if you follow the step by step chapters, and take the advice offered, you’ll understand how to approach men, and how to be the prize they want to chase and win. You should stop texting men who don’t ask you out on dates. Don’t you be the aggressor. Let them be the ones who goes after you.
But before that, you have to learn how to dress, groom yourself, flirt and where to go once you’ve mastered those things. You have to understand that dating is a numbers game, and that you have to have a lot of dates in order to meet someone who’s the right one. If you put all your eggs in one basket, you’re most likely going to be wasting your time.
Check out the book and let me know how things work out after you read it and try everything in it, out.

Ethan MoralesMember #382,560Here’s my take: the situation isn’t unusual lots of people fall into the trap of over-communicating early in dating because they’re excited, and it can unintentionally create pressure. From what you’ve described, the guy is still responding, which is a good sign, but the fact that his calling has decreased and he’s not initiating as much could mean he’s either busy, naturally less communicative, or starting to feel overwhelmed.
You want to show interest without seeming over-eager. That usually means: Let him lead sometimes, Give him space to initiate calls or texts. This helps you gauge his genuine interest.
Keep your texts light and playful, Don’t send long messages or multiple messages in a row; one thoughtful or funny text is enough to keep the connection alive.
Focus on the upcoming date, Since you already have plans, put your energy into that instead of trying to secure daily calls. Your in-person interaction will be far more meaningful than texting constantly.
Manage your expectations, Even if he doesn’t call before Saturday, it doesn’t automatically mean he’s not interested. People have different communication styles.
Essentially, you want to show excitement about seeing him without smothering him with constant messages. If he genuinely likes you, your Saturday date will be the proof and give you both the chance to connect without the texting anxiety.
