Clicky poll: Should I give this guy another chance?

Re: Clicky poll: Should I give this guy another chance?

  • I still stand by what I said yesterday.  If you keep thinking about him (in a good way) then give it another shot, what do you have to lose?  If you are just considering him because you're at a point where nothing better has come along then skip it.  That's not fair to either of you.

  • I agree with Achase. It sounds like you just want to date someone and have decided that Patrick doesn't have anything really offensive. You both deserve better. Move on. 
  • I said "yes" only in that it was a first date - he might have been nervous.  Give him a 2nd chance.  But after that - if it's really still "meh", then maybe it's time to move on.

  • I am kind of on the fence on this one.  I think in one way, a second chance would be good because usually you are not as relaxed on the first date and that he is being sweet and nice.  But sweet and nice is not enough.

    But... don't give him a second chance if you can't see beyond the superficial things about him.  That isn't fair to both of you.

     

  • Some people have a hard time opening up or feeling comfortable one a first date.  All you have to lose is is an hour or two of your time.

    I totally agree

  • Your biggest complaints seem to be the sweater vest and not asking you out again while on the date; these seem superficial to me.

    He could be really nervous around people he doesn't know (I am) and it may take a little bit for him to open up.   It can take a while for chemistry to happen.  I say give him at leaat one more try.

  • I voted yes because as long as he wasn't a douche on the 1st date, I think you should try a 2nd date. I think 1st dates tend to be over rated because our expectations are so high that it's easy to be disappointed. Check out this blog post. When I read it it made so much sense to me about how 1st dates aren't always so great but the 2nd date might be.
