I liked the idea of marriage better when the responsibility for finding a match fell on the parents.

But what if you found a terrific man to date and he is happy living in LA? What then?

Well then, you'd be 100% wrong about me. I don't care what she looks like, and my advice to her wouldn't change. I give tons of advice to people here where I have no idea what they look like. And if you go through my advice posts, my most common question to the O.P. is asking how old they are.

Looks are relative and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I think that he did like you, but that he could tell that YOU weren't into him.

I think that when he told you that he was half jewish and half christian, you must have had a disappointed look on your face. And that when he told you about his dad, you looked horrified. If you want to see him again, it's on you to make the next move, even a small one.

You said that you were impressed when he pulled out your chair for you. He's a gentleman and gentleman aren't pushy, they don't go where they aren't wanted.

He contacted you every day up until your coffee date and then stopped. That's because in meeting him face to face, your relationship moved to the next level. It's really up to you if you want to see him again.

Otherwise, since you weren't really into him, you should instead be relieved that he's not being too friendly at this point. If he were, then you'd be posting that he's bothering you and you don't know how to let him down nicely.

You are bothered because by not contacting you afterwards, he's rejected you before you could eventually reject him.

Happier now that he's made the first move and called you?

Not calling you for a few days is a considerate way for the two of you to digest those 3-1/2 hours together and decide how to proceed next. I think that it also shows that he's not a conceited man and thinking that he swept you off your feet.
