Going on a third date after an awkward second date?

[Anonymous]

So I met this girl on Tinder. We chatted for a while, and she seemed really cool, we shared a lot of interests. I had several friends who knew saying that we'd be good together. yada yada.

We went on a date - had a casual movie night (not netflix and chill). We marathoned a few movies, made out a bit, it was fun. It was awkward though because I was thinking about a girl I dated over the summer for a lot of it (which made it awkward for me).

We did another casual date, but it was also kind of awkward. We didn't talk a lot and there were a bunch of awkward silence. I felt like I was forcing myself to talk at times - I'm not good at initiating conversation. But I could also tell that she was extremely tired (which she told me too), so I decided to accept that as a reason why. It was a lot more awkward, in that sense, than the first time we saw each other.

So, we had planning to go on another date (i did the second idea because there was a long space of time in between what we we're going to do). Is it worth still trying it?

If you both like each other then sure it's definitely trying again, just take the pressure off of each other and have fun at a time that is convenient for both of you instead of trying to squeeze it in.

Gotcha - if I'm trying to avoid that kind of awkwardness, though, should i try to avoid a sit down date, like going to dinner (we were going to see a play, but i initially thought dinner first would be a good idea.
