HELP!!! Internet dating?

I met a guy online recently. After our first date he seemed very interested and wanted to go out again. He picked me up and we went to a restaurant and a dance club. I had a little bit, to say the least, too much to drink. I think I acted stupid. Needless to say I am sure he’s not gonna wanna see me again.


This afternoon he texted me to find out how I was feeling and I said bad. We exchanged a couple of texts while I was driving. I told him I was driving and was still hangover. He suggested that I shouldn’t do that. I didn’t respond. I am sure he just sent me a text message to make sure I was ok and it’s just common sense to contact someone you’ve left in that kind of condition. It’s courteous and nothing else. Also out of curiosity I went on line today to see if he was active on that dating site, and sure enough there he is Online Now.





My question is – should I forget it and move on – damage is done or should I at least send him a note apologizing for my drunken behavior?

It depends on what you did and what you said.





I have gotten hammered on a couple of first dates, but guys wanted to see me again anyway. At the same time, a girlfriend of mine got drunk on her first date with a guy he met on the Internet as well. She totally messed up her chance with him.





We were both present at a dinner with her date because we were away on vacation and the guy was living in town we were visiting at the time, so he invited me to come along. She threw a fit because she didn’t like something I said, poured water on me, cried and screamed, then said she didn’t want to know me anymore and ran off. The guy went to get his car to drive us to our hotel, while she ran on the street staggering.





After I finally dragged her in the car and we were riding, she opened the car door and jumped out when the car stopped at a traffic light.





So, it really depends on how the date went overall.





As far as his text message, I agree with you, it may have been a courteous gesture in addition to thoughts about potential liability due to pouring drinks to you while you were already drunk. I wouldn’t read into it.





I would say if you feel that you somehow hurt his feelings because you said something or did something, I would definitely apologize. Even if you don’t hear back from him, you’ll at least have found out. What have you got to lose?
Reply:Continue texting and driving at the same time and you won't have to worry about it. You'll be dead or in jail from killing someone. I think he should forget you and move on himself.
Reply:why not just text and ask him about it?
Reply:Appologize to him and tell him what you feel and ask him to tell you frankly about what he feels too.





It may hurt you but it's for your best and helps you to make the best decision.
Reply:i don't think that an apology is really necessary - we ALL have (unfortunate) drunken mishaps, but possibly a "thank you for a wonderful time, see you around" could be good.
