    Met on a night out and I gave him my number/he gave me his. At the end of the night he said he would text me and he seems like a genuine guy. How long is reasonable to wait before assuming he is not interested anymore

    Why not just text him?

    I don't really like playing games. Just text him if you want to.

    Who wrote the rules on 'how it should work'?! You've been watching too much Disney.

    I am guessing she has a phone and the capacity to send a text, so I think it could work however way she wants...

    Just text him, worse case scenario is he doesn't text back or says he isn't interested.

    Exactly, then you move on I hate how as humans we other think **** rather than doing or not doing as we want.

    Just assume he is not interested, so if/when he texts, it'll be a pleasant surprise; if he doesn't, you won't be disappointed.

    If a guy hasn't text within three days I start to lose a bit of interest. Usually I then text them, if they have a good reason that's fine but if they don't respond it's time to move on
