If you’ve met on a dating app like Tinder or Hinge, and this was the first time you’ve met one another in person, then you should be careful with your texts after the date.
You can’t immediately start sexting him because it’ll make him think you’re only interested in hooking up with him. However, you can shake things up and tickle his imagination with these hot text messages.

Should You Text A Guy After The First Date?
Well, some dating coaches may tell you that it’s an unwritten rule to let him be a gentleman and text you first. However, I think that there are no rules when it comes to love. If you’re too impatient, no one says you can’t text him first.
Just pay attention to the tone of your after-first-date text, and don’t make yourself look like a desperate girl begging for a second date. Also, don’t send him selfies immediately or hot texts because that might give him the wrong impression of you.
Thank him for the amazing time you had and tell him that you’re looking forward to going out again. If he replies immediately, it’s a good sign he’s into you too. So, try to keep the conversation going as interestingly as possible.

How Do You Get A Guy’s Attention After A First Date?
First, don’t play hard to get because you’ll risk losing him. You should know that there are two types of men: the ones who chase after women who play hard to get and the others who turn their backs and walk away immediately.
When it comes to sending the first text after a date, you can wait for him to do that, or you can be bold enough to do it yourself. The important thing is not to sound desperate or look needy.
Ghosting him also isn‘t a way to grab his attention. Pay attention to his texting style and try to follow it.
You should show him your sense of humor because guys always fall for women who make them laugh. You can tell him a joke, send him a funny meme, or try to make him laugh with a funny pick-up line.
If your guy texts back immediately, it’s a good sign he’s interested in you. Now, you should try to keep the conversation going. Talk about something that came up while you were talking on your date, or find a new, interesting topic that will keep your convo alive.
Wrapping It Up
Now that you’ve learned what to text a guy after a first date, you should finally type your text and hit the send button. Don‘t overthink it or be afraid of what might come later – just do it.
I’m sure you’ll be looking for some exciting second date ideas very soon because you’ll definitely get an invitation for that second date.
Good luck, and believe in your amazing self. I mean, look in the mirror. Who wouldn’t fall for such a wonderful person like you? Only a crazy man, right? Well, if he’s crazy enough to let you go after the first date, then you don’t need him in the first place.
