I think it's time to sit back and wait. See waht Mr. Big Lots does with all this.

This is also a good wake up call (thanks kml) for all of us on this side of the board. What will we tolerate in a new relationship? How do we stay true to ourselves and the boundaries we must set? I agree with SFO that you have to set priorities and stick to them.

I just went on a first date last night and asked all kinds of questions (partly because of this thread). It probably felt like a police interrogation to him. YET, I'm done with guys who aren't a good match, but I make excuses for them. After I got home, there was an email from him saying what a great time he had and how he can't wait to see me again. Now I'll sit back and wait for him to show me that he's "into" me. It's off to a good start.

We all deserve to be treated with respect and we show our dates how we wish to be treated. We show them what we will and won't tolerate. And, it is a two-way street. I'll answer his email today to show him that I am also interested.
