My first date

So I went on my first date ever on Friday I thought ever thing went well me and my date were talking a lot enjoying each other's company she was smiling and laughing. she told me she had plans with her cousins before the date but we ended up taking for like an hour and a half then I had hugged and kissed her good night she texted me as I was driving back home thanks for dinner. I was thinking about texting her today after work just to see when the next time she is free. I don't know I just need advice on not being too attached and getting crushed however the fact that I was able to even successfully get a date and even kiss her on the first night was something I thought I never could do and I'm proud of myself. Any input or opinions would be nice thank you I really love this community and it has helped me tremendously

 

I will thanks I know I'm overthinking it lol sometimes you just need reassurance

 

Haha bro I know this the crazy thing is your brain will trick you otherwise but she told me she is too busy to date right now but I left the door open so I'm not expecting to her from here again but in instances like this I would have felt bad for myself but I feel at peace knowing I did my best for my first ever date she won't be the last one dust myself off and try again it's hard to be detached from outcomes as a human being but I just got to keep putting myself out there

 

Haha thanks things will be going just not with her I guess lol love this community you guys really help me understand why I continue to avoid pmo and should get out of my comfort zone

 

Haha it's funny you say this because she said she is very busy with work and grad school and dating might be too much but I remember her asking me from the app what I'm looking for and I said to date and see where it goes and she said me too lol I think she just wasn't too interested in dating and maybe she just wanted to hook up I have no clue but I felt the attraction there so I just told her I understand but we could keep things casual and told her to text me when she is free and ever want to go out again but I sent this texting knowing I might not hear from her again but I'm ok with that Ill figure out this whole dating thing out it just takes a lot of patience and awareness the right person will come along but this was a major breakthrough for me

 

I did she said she is not ready to date I don't what that meant really maybe she wasn't trying to hurt my feelings I guess who knows it's none of my business gotta move on keep trying

 

You're right at least I'm not wasting my energy lol

 

Haha thanks you will

 

Yeah I wish her the best im gonna focus on my goals career and hobbies
