How much leeway do you give a new partner?

If you've started seeing someone new....how perfect do you expect them to be?

If hes only done it once hes defo worth another chance!
Define 'let me down'.
It's difficult to determine an appropriate response without the circumstances!
not doing something you ask them too..
or forget to do it.
as long as he had a good reason it shud all be ok.
Does he have good enough reason?
And The 'perfect' feeling is never gonna last. Sooner or later their habits that seemed cute and funny at start become annoying as fuck. But you've got to be able to see through all that and decide if you like them as person and if they are worth you investing your time and energy in em.
Personally I'd give him another go
Thats webcam it always makes people look fine.. when theyre not.
And he could of been generally ill.
Dito. I dont think there is an easy answer either
If you havent been seeing him that long he might not feel comfortable telling you that he isn't up to being an attentive boyfriend and may think turning up to see you feeling rough and sleepy would put you off, or it could easily just be the case that he does feel ill. My bloke gets really funny when he has cold, headache or is tired but luckily we talked about the stuff before it became a huge issue for either of us and we both understand each other now.
I hope it works out for you xx
I personally would give him another chance if hes been great up to now, but i wouldnt carry on giving chances
