In general, I give at least a second chance and sometimes more. So much depends on the circumstances. What's key is how I'm treated in between.

Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

I think a good follow up question would be... How long do you correspond with someone before you decide to meet them for the first time?

Well... If I'm not desperate to get laid, then I don't count chances - I look at what they have to offer. But I'd say 3 4 times? And then there was this one fricken lady... Twenty years... I was sort of chasing her... Yep 😶
40 minutes away is my commute... on a good day... Too bad it didn't work out. Oh well... 😔😗

I'll give a few chances but eventually I just forget about it.

I lead a crazy hectic life, with family and a business. So I'm pretty understanding of time constraints. But, I'd have my limits, like you said. I think your's was a understanding and legitimate waiting period.

Especially if you were that close to each other.

Usually give more chances, I always try to listen to the other part!

I have a crazy life so I need a few chances and so I give a few...lol. Having said that there is a limit, eventually you have to realize both your schedules just aren't conducive to anything happening.

I'm a true believer that we can always make time but why we choose not to
can only be defined at the time it happened.It also depends on who
is doing the initiating and is a good indicator of who lost interest.

Using more than all the road!

Love the point of how treated in between. My last one didn’t treat me well in between, no communication. So, on his reappearence, I was over it. I won’t be an afterthought or a rebound. Alone is better than no regard.

I give a few chances because I know life is busy because that's how I am. I don't believe in closing doors altogether....you never know if there is a diamond in the rough that you didn't give the opportunity to find

Give him a few more chances, you will know. The dating pool is rough, believe I know.

If it seems like there is a connection, I'll likely give more chances. I do understand when real life gets in the way, but, if a relationship is going to work, at some point you have to prioritize time together. So, those chances are not unlimited...but I probably put up with more than I should.

If the first time was disrespectful and rude....That's it ....it's over
Otherwise I would give at least a second chance!

It really depends on the person/dynamic, and the situation. Could be one, and done or a few chances. Lately though, I'm not going to go chasing after it. Been there, and done that and ended up feeling real small.

I guess I am a bit forgiving/understanding, at my age all things move a bit slower so I am used to it. just have to weigh the circumstances at these given moments, sometimes just not a yes/no decision, a bit of understanding , but don't be fooled into a fantasy situation that can't work...... But life is good, the weather is good, looking forward to thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. I hope all have a good holiday season..

I tend to see the best in most and will give them a second or third chance.

If the vibes are good, I give a few chances, If I question the feelings, not to many chances.

I have stayed friends but knowing that's as far it will go is the best I can expect.

I know that life can be hectic and that things do come up. I will give people a couple of chances and if it can’t be worked out, then I say goodbye. I was lucky that I met a person on here and we met. The meet didn’t go well because of the noise level of the place we met and explained that to her. She decided to give me another chance and we met in a much quieter location and hit it off well. We have been seeing each other at least once a week since then and enjoy the time we spend together.

    Quoting superbjversion2:

I ditto this sentiment.

And as people often tell me...if he was really interested, he'd find the time. I know that's not always true, since I know my life is abundantly full at times. But if I can find the time...just sayin...

Depends on how well we connect talking before we meet and why the meetings DIDN'T happen
