Default 1st date

HI
My fiance walked out on me 2 years ago. Since then, I have went on 3 dates. Only 3! I am pretty much over him, but I still feel a sense of guilt when I want to go out with a guy.
I am probably older than most of you, so the dating thing is really new to me. So I joined an online site.
Well I get a match and I liked his profile and he liked mine. So we emailed back and forth then he asked for my # and called me.
We met for a date and it went real well. He was everything I am looking for in a man. So he asked me if he could kiss me goodnight, and boy what a kiss it was. Not a peck on the cheek if you know what I mean.
So he calls the next day and we talked for an hour on the phone. He said he would call me during the week to make plans for another date.
Well it's Wendesday and nothing yet.
My question: DO I WAIT FOR HIM TO CALL OR DO I? I am by no means desperate, but I really wanted to get to know him further, and he seemed very interested in me. Do guys get turned off if a girl calls them after only one date? It's not the 50's ya know. I don't know how this whole dating thing works.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

i too am not very good at these types of things but there is that oprah book not sure of the name but

if a guy likes you he will call.

i know that isn't what you want to hear but i think it may ring true.

i hate the waiting game. i know it isn't the '50s but i'm old fashion(at 35)

i hope he calls. good luck

I would wait on it. Men are just as insecure as women and play just as many games. He probably doesn't want to call too early, so I wouldnt' be too overanxious yet. Wait for it. If he doesnt' call, there's no harm in calling him. I think you should relax and feel confident that the date went well. Everything will fall into place. Good luck!

Well, the guy I am currently interested in is definitely into me. However, we wouldn't get very far if it weren't for my checking in with him from time to time. Let me tell you, I start to wonder if he isn't really interested after all, maybe I said something, etc, etc, but then I contact him, and it's perfect again. Now, I am not usually forward like this, and am old fashioned, and let the guy make the first move. AND, I'm definitely not a dating expert. However, what I would suggest is this.....Just drop him an email saying you just wanted him to know you had a really great time and you're looking forward to getting to know him better. Simple, not over done, not pushy. If he's truly interested, this should give him the nudge to call you.

Just my 2 cents....

I might go the email route also instead of calling since you guys have already been exchanging emails.

Men are funny when your waiting for them to call. I met a guy at a New Years party when I was single and it took him like almost a month to call our significant friend to get my number for a date.
