That's Not What I Want

I went out with a guy I met online a few weeks ago.  He seemed like a nice guy in person.  I tried very hard to get past his height.  He's much shorter than 5 feet and I'm shorter than the US women's average of 5'5".  We had a nice dinner and he asked me out again.  I agreed because I really wanted to give him a chance and get past his lack of height.

Days leading to the second date, he was texting me.  Then the texts took a turn, for example, "Let's go back to your place after dinner so we can have some private time."  I told him no and cancelled the second date.  To me, he's a guy who's just trying to get laid, and that's not what I want.  I do like that he was upfront about it because it saved me a lot of time.

A Month Or So Ago

Let's go back a month or so ago.  The guy I ran into at the airport texted me, a lot.  He's asked me out to lunch and we went.  He's a nice guy who I see at work every now and then.  I don't consider himself to be a long term prospect because he just got out of a serious relationship, has some young kids/baby mama drama from a different woman, and I'm not sure I find him attractive.  I don't find him unattractive, but that's not a great vote of confidence.  If anything, he'll be a work friend?  I wouldn't mind being his work friend, but from that lunch we had together, it seems like he's interested in more.
