The excitement of how well the first date went had you sending him a red heart emoji after it.
This was in response to the text he sent you that was all about how much of a great time he had on the first date, how smitten he was with your intelligence and exquisite looks, and how much he was looking forward to seeing you again on a second date.
This was further confirmation that he had just as great of a time as you had on the first date, and you didn’t think twice about enthusiastically replying to his text message and including a red heart emoji with it.
Although the red heart emoji ❤️ is a beloved digital symbol whose intent is to convey love, passion, and romance, its use has broadened since the early days of its inception.
Even though it was a great first date, he was hiding the fact he was disappointed by what he saw.
He didn’t mention it during the date so as not to be impolite, but this disappointment stirred within him throughout the first date.
If you initially connected or matched with this guy on a dating app or social media, he already had a very set expectation of what he thought you looked like physically.
When you showed up on the first date looking physically different from what he was expecting, he was disappointed inside.
The less experience he has with dating, the more likely he is to get nervous before a first date.
Unfortunately, since he doesn’t have all that much experience with dates, he is thinking about how many things could possibly go wrong during a first date.
Some of the most popular pain points he worries about before a first date are whether he will be capable of maintaining a robust conversation without awkward silences, whether she will be attracted to him physically or be disappointed, and whether a kiss at the end of the date will result in an embarrassing moment.
He is already looking at the entirety of the first date in his mind and getting too caught up in how it could pan out.
