I met this guy who gave me his card with his cell number written on the back. I'm trying to decide if I want to call him. The reason I'm a little wary (and weary) is because I have never been very successful at dating random guys. I mean, if a random guy asks me on a date, we might go out once or twice, but nothing ever comes of it.

 

The only relationships I've had are with guys who I met within a group of friends; we would become friendly and eventually start dating.

 

I also am not especially attracted to this guy, although there's a distinct possibility that this is because of how and where we met, and I would maybe have a different idea about him if we saw each other in different circumstances?

 

How many of you think dating random guys is a good way to start a relationship?

Take it oh so very slow because you don't know anything about them for sure. Sometimes it takes a while to find the crazy they're hiding. Most people do have something crazy about them and it is up to you to decide what amount is acceptable.

These candidates can be harder to read than someone you can inquire about of others in your social group. The good part they have over people in your social group is if they have too much crazy for you - you can not see them anymore instead of running into them at a friend's house.

Agreed. I think that maybe having friends who are in essence references, and getting a feel for someone before dating helps a lot....seems like way more effort to have to establish that through dating someone random.

 

 

But true that there is a downside as well.

 

Still can't decide if I'm going to call him though.
