Sorry for the long post, but this is a first date story, I’m a woman that has previously had bad experiences w dates where they really dismiss me, but I recently had jaw surgery and think it’s changed my attractiveness for the better and don’t know how to decipher this change in behavior. I (21F) just went on a first date with (22M), I’ve never dated anyone older than 25 so didn’t know how different he was gonna be going into it. He asked me out for dinner at a sushi place. When we met he was super talkative and seemed more of the on edge type. A lot of the times I couldn’t get my words in cos he kept on talking. But he was super accommodating, kept on asking me what I wanted and wanting for my approval on everything, what I liked to order, drinks, Ubers. But He just seemed really jittery which I didn’t like, and much more extroverted. Anything I would say I liked he would super agree, and anything I disliked he would say he hated. I’m not sure if this was just him trying to be as agreeable as possible or impressive but it was quite overbearing. He works in finance although only a year in so he’s new to the nyc scene. After dinner he suggested to go to a dessert place, and kept asking me if I wanted to walk or uber there since it was cold. He didn’t hesitate to get a cab when I said I was cold. We spent the rest of the night talking at the dessert place and I said I needed to get to my station to see my friend who was waiting for me. He just followed me there, and it was cold so he initiated contact by holding me whilst we were walking. I really appreciate all these gestures but idk why I’m so thrown off since he was really uptight and jittery with it. I might of been oblivious but when we were saying bye he reached in for a kiss and I totally moved out of the way by accident, and then he went in again which I just gave him my cheek. He texted me straight away saying he had a great time with me, and I texted when I got home. He said he’d like to do it again sometime so I’m guessing he’d want to see me again. Honestly, I haven’t really had many dates where the guy seemed very interested, I recently had double jaw surgery and think it’s made me more attractive, and this was one of the first dates I’ve had since that change. He also made a comment on the date and said I seemed very content myself, which I was. He’s very good looking, 6’3, has a good job in finance, smart, I’m sure a lot of women would like him so I was expecting him to be more smooth I guess. Im just not used to this and don’t know what to do moving forward. submitted by /u/Vast_Indication_9901
