I met a guy online, then we met and had sex on the first date. He left town and I haven't heard from him since. I feel bad for rushing things. Is there any way to let him know that I would like to go back and start over?

This is a tough one. Did you all "connect" (pardon the pun) in any other ways besides sexually? What I mean is, did you spend any time getting to know each other and find that you had a lot in common?

I have to agree with Jack Scotty on this one, he probably was just looking for sex. I don't believe most guys (or women) who use online dating services are like this though nor can I quantify it with any statisticss. However, the key here is that he left town AND he has not contacted you.

Don't bother feeling bad about rushing things and letting him know you would like to start over because. . .well, to put it bluntly, he already got what he wanted out of this deal. Sad, but probably true. It's probably just better to regret then forget. Find somebody else and be more cautious when using an online dating service in the future.

I know this is probably not the answer you wanted, but I hope it helps.

2 things are obvious here.

#1. All he wanted was sex. If he wants more sex he will call.

#2. He is not really interested in you. Otherwise he would have called.

Not to say that you cant find true love on the internet but 9 out of 10 times meeting someone online is about having sex. He surely wasn't turned off by having sex on the first date. Apparently he came to town and got exactly what he wanted. At this stage of the game, if you ever see him again, you can count on him wanting only one thing.

Totally agree. Fell very sorry for her cause she blames herself.

A female did this to me and it sucks from either end. If the person had just been honest it would not have mattered, but if you are led on and then used it really sucks, so I feel sorry for her as well...

You can, but it won't mean anything to him. He got everything you had to give in 4 hours. Why would he come back and "start over?" What could he possibly hope to get from you more than what he already got?

I wrote an article about handling yourself smart when doing online dating that you might find helpful. Check out LOG ON FOR A CYBERDATE at the link below:

It sounds like you were a one night stand and thats the way he wants it. You will probably get hurt if you chase him. i would just learn from the experience and proceed with your life.

He thinks your a slut now, so you have two options

1.call him/contact him tell him your serriously usually not like that and tell him you would like to really get 2 know him ( and make sure u dun have sex with him for a long time after, to prove your not a slut)

2. Forget him & learn from this.

There really is no way he told all of his buddys that he met a chick on the internet and got laid the first date! Also if he was a respectable guy he wouldnt of put you in the situation to make you have sex or not! Find your self another take notes from this experience and move on!

You are the one that rushed things? And, he left town? Well, I guess if you can find him you could tell him that. Say you want to go back and start over.

I thought that's what internet dating was all about. I've never gotten into it, but my friends say it's like the newest, easiest way to hook up for one-nighters. If that's not what you're looking for, maybe try making it a little more clear. I would not suggest sex on the first date.

Don't regret it.
Think of it this way:
Would you rather regret something you HAVE done, or regret something you didn't do?

You met him, you got some sex... Your only regret is that you didn't get to know him better.
Well, if you hadn't met him, you might be regretting it alot more. Sure, he might have just wanted sex, but who cares!?
Honestly? Move on. Don't worry so much about what other people think, and if you want him back, I'm afraid to say it's unlikely. Whatever you do, don't beat yourself up over it.

This is really where treating a guy like a girl comes in. You had protected sex right. Then just look it as you got what you needed to move on to the next conquest. Trust me when you really met the right guy, he is not going to care who you did before, he is just going to love that you can make his eyes roll back in his head. (LOL)
