After Our First Date, I Swore There Wouldn’t Be a Second

Daniel is polite, punctual and kind to the waiter, and she decides before reaching her car that there will be no second date. They have nothing in common.

Perfect couple

Before I reached my car, I had already decided there would not be a second date.

It was not because Daniel had been rude. In fact, he had been almost painfully polite. He arrived ten minutes early, held the restaurant door open for me, and listened without checking his phone once.

He was kind to the waiter. He laughed at my jokes, including the ones that did not deserve it. When I mentioned that my hands were cold, he quietly asked whether I wanted to move to a table farther away from the air conditioner.

Daniel was perfectly nice.

That was the problem.

There was nothing obviously wrong with him, but there was also nothing connecting us.
