Dear Dating Again,
There is Nothing Wrong with Avoiding Intimacy
It sounds as though he wants to take things slowly and not rush
the physical aspect of your relationship, which I think is commendable.
Maybe he regrets coming over and spending the night and is now
trying to slow things down to a more appropriate level for two people
who just met.
It could also be that he is simply not the hugging type. I know
plenty of men who do not feel comfortable hugging, for whatever
reason. Maybe he was raised in a home where affection was not outwardly
shown, or it could be that he has other ways of showing affection,
such as giving verbal compliments or simply being close to you and
cuddling together. Or maybe he felt awkward ending the date, not
sure whether to attempt a kiss. (The end of a date is usually the
most awkward part!)

Hoo boy! I remember all to
well the angst at the end of a date. |
Regardless of his reasons, I wouldn't be too worried yet, as this
is only your second date. There are plenty of men out there who
are willing to take advantage of women and use them for a physical
relationship. I applaud him for having more integrity. Give it some
time and be patient, and try to appreciate his respectful attitude!
– Hope
