Had a very nice date with him. Was able to overcome his geekiness. Still, he is a tad too heavy for me. Other than that he is OK. I will see him when I am back from Europe. He said several truly comforting things. For instance, he was once in a r/s with a woman who had suffered from abuse and and if anything, some minor thing went wrong she would be in tears fearing that he would kill her / lose his temper, because her past male partners behaved like that. He was steadfast, persuading her that he would not lose his temper, that he is not this kind of man, and ultimately she developed trust in him. Eventually they broke up as lovers but remain best friends (she is now married). I was impressed. He also reports being friendly with all exes. Not me, that is for sure. So I was impressed, again.
