Dating?

I will pose a question to... probably no one since this blog is actually hard to search for. But anyways, the question: how long does it take to figure out if someone is "worth" dating?



When I say "worth" I don't mean a judgement on the fella, more a judgement of your/my compatibility with him.



So is it something that you can tell early on or does it take a while. Two dates, three, ten? How long do you try it before it's too long?



Okay, I'll explain the reason for the question. I've been chatting with this fellow online for a few weeks, a month, whatever. He is nice to email back and forth with for the most part. The first date was good, a first date for sure- the get to know you stuff over coffee. Tonight we had date two. It was nice too. Yummy dinner, nice conversation, a little more comfortable and I got a hug instead of a handshake. Whoo! So obviously a nice guy, but...



But what, right? That's what I'm trying to figure out! Do I just need to give it time? Or is my inclination right, have my two extremely entertaining best guy friends ruined me, spoiled me?! They make me laugh and constantly entertain me with their adventures of all sorts. This guy, not so entertaining. I only laughed once or twice in the hour and a half we were together. This seems like a problem. It isn't that he isn't interesting... maybe we aren't comfortable with each other yet. I don't know, but I figure another date can't hurt. So we'll see what happens.



Any insight? Any knowledge on this front that I'm missing that anyone can fill me in on? Or do I just need to figure it out with time and experience?



Answer three, huh? That's what I thought. Darn.
