Hi,

Maybe someone can give me some advice...I was set up by a friend with this guy who is decent looking and has everything going for them. When I first met him, I thought he was nice and all, but did not really feel a spark.

Well, he called me and asked me out, problem is that the day we talked to set up the date, he just really doesnt talk much and the conversation was awkard and never had this happened before. We are to go out, but I'm just not feeling it........should I go ahead with the date and if so, what if he doesnt talk or we are there just staring at each other. When we talked on the phone, I kept asking him questions but he just answerd them and did add much to the conversation. Its been my experince that guys always try to make you laugh and put you at ease, he was just there??!!!

What should I do?? Any advice will be appreciated.

Hi Yaddie,

I think you should go on the date and hope for the best- it's not like you have to marry him or anything. He might just be shy- shy guys are prime candidates to be set up by their friends. He might be a diamond in the rough! But if the first date doesn't leave you wishing for more, let him go.

C ould be he's shy and needs to be drawn out .Why not do a fun activity on the date (i.e. - hike) that serves as great icebreaker.
