Would you talk to him.

So I met this guy a few months back, at work, and we talked on the phone for about a month, about GOD, and relationships, and what we want from someone we plan to marry.
Then I finally decided that it seemed safe enough to go on a date, I asked him where we would go, and he said that since he had just gotten off of work, he didn't really want to go out anywhere cause he was all dirty, he lives at least 2 hours away from me, and he had to take a shower. So he was going to get a hotel room here in my area, to take a shower, and then we could go somewhere.
He invited me to go with him and wait that way he didn't have to go there and then pick me up. After a lot of protest and conversation, I agreed. Wrong move!
We got there, we talked for a long time about GOD, and our weaknesses, for about 2 hours, we just talked. Well then he laid down on the bed, to wach t.v. and after a little asked me if we could cuddle, I was hesitant at first but eventually I did, then that turned in to kissing, and, well you got the rest!
I was so hurt by my own actions, I am not this type of woman, who does this on the first date, or even after months, sometimes years of dateing. I cried, I was so ashamed! I never talked to him again, he called but I never answered!
He showed up at my door yesturday, I never expected him to do that. He said that he wanted to come over and appologise for what happend and that he never ment to hurt me if he had, he also said that he thinks he's in love with me because he hasn't been able to stop thinking of me since then. He wanted to have permission to start calling me again.
I said okay, but that I would never go to a private place with him again. Not that I blame him, but I don't trust myself when I'm with him, since he's so good at swindeling me into doing something he knows I wouldn't have done!
I want to know what you all think I should do, should I say you know I'm sorry but I don't think that we should talk. Or do you think that him going totally out of his way to appologise should give him another chance?
Let me know I really want all of your oppinions?

you've already established your boundaries with him this time. it sounds like he wasn't forceful before. if you can trust yourself and follow your own guidelines, you should be fine. who knows, it may turn out to be the relationship you've been looking for. good luck.

Thank you for your advice, I hope I can be strong enough not to let go of my boundries this time. With GODs help I won't.

by setting boundaries, you've given him the perfect opportunity to prove what a gentleman he can be. hopefully, for "mankind" sake, he won't blow it. i'll add you to my prayer list.

I know that's what I was thinking, He is pretty smooth, but the truth is I knew where it would end up and I wasn't strong enough to say no way! So really it's my fault. Thanks for the comment I appreciate it. Have a good-night.

Lara, a very difficult question to answer and a very tricky situation to handle.
I am writing you my obsevations -
Whatever he did to you on your first date...was NOT orer or say appropriate at all (though you yourself should also get some blame for that event).
The situation can be viewed both ways...he may be a nice and genuine person...but somehow on your first date he could not control himself (his emotions)...but he should have also known his boundaries and limits on his first date.
Here I may quote - "The first impression is the last impression". Right now, your feelings are governed by this saying, I believe.
YOu will have to introspect yourself...whether that guy deserve a second chance? If you are bold and courageous enough...you may give him a chance...(You are right...if you are going to meet him...do not meet him...at all at private place...and if you think that he is a swindler or can befool you easily....then do not go for date at all...confine youself to other mood of communications with him, before arriving at a decision)
But if you ask me my frank opinion.... I would say...that - that guy does not deserve a second chance...because whatever he did to you...was not appropriate at all and was not right.
