I once met a guy off the internet and the last thing I said is "we'll keep in touch" and I never talked to him again. I guess people say things then mull it over later.
Hmm, I remember you mentioned in one of my previous threads that you feel "we'll keep in touch" means.

It most likely translates into either "I never want to see you again" or "I might if I can be bothered or want to try to be polite, but its a low priority and I probably won't".
If someone I really like I met online.. I would text them pretty soon after. I probably wouldn't bother saying that.. I would say "I will text you".
OP, I think she may have felt pressured into giving you a reply, not so much trying to play games with you. She may have been thinking about the date and sorting out how she felt about it too. So there was no issue with attraction based on the details of your last two threads. What the issue seems to stem from is the fact that you perhaps come across as pushy (you want an answer when she is trying to sort out how she felt about you).
Next time, perhaps maybe you don't mention future plans on the date and just choose to call her at a later date and ask her out again. It's more low pressure and any excitement she might have over wondering when you will call again or not is answered. Of course, I find women are very interested before the date... I also find that it's up to the guy to show interest after the date while also allowing her to sort out some feelings about the previous date. The first dates are always the toughest.
