That's so true!
Men are simple creatures, unaware of a lot of these subtle "rules"
If I texted you twice by Monday and hadn't heard back by Wednesday I'd forget about it and let it go.
What's the rule? Three days to respond so not to appear keen?
Come on, keep it simple.
If you're interested text back or better still, call the guy
We are all expecting an invite to the wedding Becky, NO PRESSURE!

Well, well, well.... ????
How do you know what guys like?
becky - don't play games - you run the risk of him deciding that you're not really interested. The last text was from him so the ball is back in your court now.
A good few years ago I met a girl about a week before Christmas. We had a couple of text conversations later and then they dried up. I got fed up and actually ended up meeting my wife. The first girl claimed that she had no credit and/or didn't get some of my messages but you can't hang around forever waiting for someone to stop playing games.
The first girl is now a raging alcoholic with serious relationship problems ... probably!
That doesn't really sound right.
"I met the woman who went on to become my wife" is better!
Easiest advice. If hes in town you meet for an informal coffee - no pressure - if it goes well - you continue on for dinner.... if that goes well then drinks... if that goes well.....?!?!
But seriously - this gives him the sign youre interested, but not a bunny boiler. If he cant make it - he will respond by asking you out on a different day. If he's not interested - he wont propose an alternative time. You'll know by his reaction, but you dont sound stalkerish.

Seriously though - I dont think people of either sex like presumption too early on? Unless they are some kind of weird stalkery type.
No, you've said it now. We will all judge you accordingly!
Indeed!
Now must go, have to text this "becky" one that's been texting me all week. I'm on a promise here I tells ya!
Aaaah, simpler times
+1. Would not be able to keep up with the politics of who texts first and when to reply.
So true!
I would invite him out during Xfactor or Strictly come dancing or something. Show him you really care!
I wish women would understand just how simple men are. The only rule I ever adhered to was the 48hr rule. He has broken that by texting on a Monday morning so I would take it that he is keen.
In my dating days (not too long ago) I liked mid-week dates. If the date is crap, you have a work excuse to get away. Nothing worse than spoiling a perfectly good saturday night.
If it goes well, you have an excuse to get away early in the morning. You can't do that when you wake up on Sunday morning! "Sorry sweetie, but I'm just off to mass".

Exactly, what else could it possibly mean??

Maybe it would be a camping date - seperate tents of course.
