you have had one date... what is the longest you would expect to wait before going on next date?

and when would you give up waiting?

I started talking to him on dating site oct last year.. we had plans to meet up but they got cancelled.. we texted every now and then after that... then he was sort of back with his ex and i was kind of seeing someone else..

then about a month ago started having more contact etc then met up

Really think he needed to do the ex thing as she left him for someone else.. and being back with her he said it has made him realise that it would never work between them. so in a way i am glad that happened because it has taken the what if away from her iyswim..

I am trying to think along these lines
What is freely supplied to me i shudder at , But if aught is denied me i long for that with constant mind, She who's effusive i flee. The girl who's elusive suits me!!!

He is 40 and i am 31

I like to text and he doesnt really..

You do need to know more about him .. it was a bit easier for me because i became clear that my friend knows someone who works with him and she confimed he was a genuine nice guy...

It is hard not to look for dodgyness when you have had bad experiences... I just feel that i am ready for some happiness now. my ex is remarried had a new baby... and here i am sat night, children in bed... i am on my own... thank the lord for mumsnet

Well I really hope it works out for you. You clearly need/deserve a break.

I really don't think that he would've mentioned plans to see you again and got concert tickets if he didn't intend to contact you.

Hang in there
