Is he shy, or a gentleman, or just not interested?

Strewth, give him a kiss on both cheeks when you meet next time and see what happens.

j.e.j.

Maybe he's not a touchy-feely kind of person

I think in your shoes I'd try holding his arm, or getting close. If he doesn't withdraw your onto a winner.:D

You either have to be patient and go on more dates and then see if anything happens, kiss or touch wise.

Or you do it yourself and show him your keen

Or you don't do it yourself but you ask him if he's into you (you could say it in a way that tells him you don't want to waste your time on something that isn't going anywhere)

Good luck whatever you do, hope it's just that he is a real gentleman

JUST GO FOR IT

wandering along just link arms or hold his hand you will have your answer in an instant

It's only been two dates! He is probably worried that if he had done more, you would have questioned his intentions. Many women would find it creepy to have a bloke brushing your shoulder or getting into your space.

I sometimes really do feel sorry for men, they can't seem to get it right. Just to add, met OH on dating site and he too was a total gentleman for first couple of dates, no show of physical interest, but when we arranged a date close to his home, we both guessed where it might lead and I suddenly saw another side to him!

Stop making stupid rules for yourself. What's that all about? Go and meet the other guy as well, instead of inventing an artifical decision point for no reason.

You could just ask him - asking about a potential relationship seems reasonable when you found each other on a dating website.

I think he is taking you seriously, judging by the comments he is making to you about his family, and even more so introducing you to work colleagues. Moreover, he must think you at some level are 'attractive' i.e. he's not embarrassed to be seen with you/
I wonder though 'how experienced' he is!? Has he had many girl/lady friends?


Perhaps, there's a dance class (Salsa) you could both go to - he'll have to hold you then!


It's a bit unusual though, finding someone, who doesn't have 'wandering palms'.


Good luck, seems a decent guy, a good man, could be worth it.


Don't understand it myself, I'd feel insulted if the girl/lady wouldn't accept a good-night kiss - on the first meeting.

Maybe he just doesn't fancy you but likes your company as a friend, that's how it comes across to me. The only way you'll find out for sure though is by going on more dates or just asking him.
