I have a question: I went on a first date with someone the other night, had a great time. We were out for hours and he walked me to my car and we talked for another half hour. We had SOOO much in common, he said he had a great time. So I asked him if he wanted to get together again sometime and he said "You'll be on EH yet right?" I will catch you on there" ?????
What does that mean???? Shouldn't he have asked for my number at least?

That doesn't sound too promising, does it?

It might even sound suspicious, were I of such frame of mind.

That does seem odd. But maybe he is just waiting for you to offer your number or e-mail address. I would send him an OC message with either your number e-mail addy or both. No reason to keep using the eH system.

I see one of two scenarios: either he said that to prompt you to give him your e-mail address, phone number, etc. (some way to contact him outside of eH) or he's not all that interested. My guess is the latter, because if he were truly interested, he would have responded more directly to your suggestion to get together again by asking for another date (or at least asking for your phone number).

My approach in such a situation is to say, "I had a great time and I'd love to see you again. If you'd like to get together again, here's my number..." or something similar. That way it doesn't put him on the spot with a question he has to answer right then (in case he's not interested), but gives him the info he needs if he is.

Thanks everyone for your advice, I feel he isn't interested, but then again, why stand outside with me for half an hour talking after three hours on the date? It doesn't make sense, guess it doesn't pay to figure it out.
Thanks again
