I agree with so many of the things written above but I also can see the other side of this from a "newbies" eyes. I (Craig) and We (Kelly and Craig) have posted a few times on here and have emailed a few people on here but haven't gotten up the nerve yet to actually "talk" on the phone to any of the couples let alone set up a date yet. So after reading this thread I'm wondering if everyone that we chatted with thinks bad of us too :-(
Everything I have read in the original post makes me think that it is just him and his wife doesn't even know about this. I'd bet if you all went through with your date he would be making excuses why she didn't show up at the last minute.
That said I'd give up on the couple(or acutally a noncouple) but I hope you don't give up on every couple that moves a little slow.
