I've been going out on a lot of first dates in the past year, but I rarely ever seem to get past date one. Take this story for example:

I met this girl on plentyoffish and we hit it off. She was new to Internet dating and wasn't sure she wanted to do it, but I had her convinced otherwise after a few emails. We chatted on IM for about 1.5 hours and had a blast. I mean, we hit it off really well. We were joking and laughing about everything.

We made a lunch date and met up 2 days later. I had caught a fever during that time and had just got over it when we met at lunch (read: wasn't feeling too hot). This girl could talk. So much so it was hard to get a word in edgewise. No big deal to me I figure. She's probably just excited or something.

Well later that night she tells me that I don't have a big enough personality for her. That's just weird. I was talking and having a relaxing lunch and everything was fine to me.

However, what if she's right? What if I am a stick in the mud? I mean, at least 15 or so first dates with no second ones. Something has to be wrong with me, right?

Any advice or thoughts?
