Hinge date: I want a second date

Hello everyone!

I went on a date with a man I met on Hinge. We had a serious spark and we kissed.

I told him the next day on messages that I want to see him again and he replied saying, "same, I would like to see you again and I can cook for you or we can do an activity but it will have to be next week as I have rehearsals in the evening this week"

Next week is now approaching and he still has not gotten back to me regarding a second date. We message each other once daily but I really like him and I want to see him again.

What should I do, it's really upsetting me?

Please help! Thank you!

Just ask him: "Do you still want to meet this week? If so would [day] work for you?"

He has already suggested that he "can cook for you or we can do an activity". So lean into that.

You could try, "What sort of things do you like to cook? Name the ingredients and I'll pick up whatever you need. We can cook it together."

Or how about proposing an activity? "My local pub has live music next Wednesday. Should we go?" (Or whatever "activity" you think you both might enjoy.)
