English term or phrase: she wrote for you
First Date Do's and Don'ts
DON'T:
Leave him hanging. If you'd like to see him again, say, "I had a great time. The time really flew." Yes, you can kiss him goodnight but don't act desperate to set up a second date on the spot. If the first date is all she wrote for you, say, "It was a pleasure meeting you. All the best." Don't dilute the message by engaging in kissy-kissy.
