I was tempted to write him off because it was so strange and insulting, but DH is a great guy who has been there for me through thick and thin. He was just nervous and said one rude and weird thing.
I almost didn't give my DH a second date because he talked about himself through our ENTIRE first date, nonstop. I don't think I said more than 10 words the entire time and this was a 2.5 hour date. Thankfully, I gave it another shot in the hopes he was just nervous (also, I was bored and didn't have anything to do the night he asked me out again) and it turns out he was. He's definitely a chatty guy but not the obnoxious "let me treat you to a two hour monologue about myself" jerk he seemed like on the first date.
