Don't rush the physical. Let it happen in due time. Instead, focus on getting to know him and let that be the foundation of your relationship.

GREAT advice!

Hmm. Maybe he's trying to be a gentleman? I'd give it one more date and see what happens. Some guys are shy about making a move. My friend's boyfriend didn't kiss her until like FIVE dates! Or you could make a move on him?

Yes, thanks. I have an odd feeling I shouldn't try to make a move, not sure why. His ex-wife kind of became extremely temperamental, high strung, insecure, erratic (at least by his description), so I want to be very emotionally steady. So if it needs to go slowly, I guess that's OK. I mean, it's difficult and it would be a relief to break the tension with a little kiss, but ...

We had our fourth date last night, and it was wonderful, and it ended with a hug, BUT he had taken off his glasses, so I think ... sigh ... that he was ready. But I am happy with taking this one slowly. It's worth it, kind of a soulmate thing going on ...
