3rd date

hi there,
I have been on 2 dates with a guy I met online and he invited me to his place for dinner as the 3rd date. I am 31 and he is (a young) 43. There were a couple of things that he was not too honest about on his online profile, but told me on the first date (1. college education- only went for 1 year not a degree as the profile said, and 2. we met on Jdate but he told me he is barely Jewish both in lineage and practice). I want to get to know him better but the chemistry isn't all there yet- we haven't kissed or anything. He seems like a nice guy and seems to be very open with me in our conversations, but I am still hesitant to go to his house at this stage. What should I do? How do I politely tell him I want to wait?
thanks!

A simple, I'd feel more comfortable at this point if we were to keep our dates in public until we get to know each other better, thanks, will do just fine.
Just say that while you're really enjoying getting to know him, he seems like a really great guy,
I too, would be concerned about the lack of honesty in his profile. I met and ended up dating a man who was less than honest in his profile. I found out that not only did he embellish things on his profile he had no problem not being honest in other areas. I wasted a lot of time and energy on someone who I shouldn't have. The *dates* also stopped very soon after he felt I was his girlfriend.
Not that a couple should always have to go out, but I feel there are men out there who are just plain lazy when it comes to finding and getting a partner.
