As I read it through, that's the first thought I had about guy #2 - his laugh helps him mask his inability to say the right thing - almost like a coping mechanism. I get it - you don't like it and yep, you're sorting through what's tolerable and not.
I am clueless on these two -- there's so much more I would ask YOU to help you decide. But hey dating can surely be fun - maybe throw in another one in the mix now that #2 is out!
wishing you abundance of love, fun and comfortable companionship! Thanks for asking us! Let us know how the search progresses! ;-)
