If you went on a date with someone who seemed nervous/uncomfortable/awkward pretty much the whole time, would you give them a second date? Assuming that they asked you out again.

Part of me thinks that if a date is awkward then the conversation wasn't easy and flowing well. If either you can't come up with things to talk about with each other then you must not have a lot in common...
On the other hand, dates ARE awkward. Period. You're sitting there thinking "oh, god I hope I don't have anything in my teeth" and over analyzing everything that you say.
So, I dunno, I guess another date couldn't hurt. What if it turns out that you guys really hit it off the next time?

Eh, it would depend really heavily on how well I thought I'd get along with them after they got over the awkwardness. If we had enough in common, the person had an oddball sense of humor, there was chemistry, I might be willing to overlook awkwardness on the first date. After all, not everyone can be as smooth as I am :D
Just kidding... I'm the antithesis of smooth haha. But I am blunt and comfortable with who I am, and this enables me to get people to open up quicker than most.

Answer 3 of 3
Even when someone is awkward and uncomfortable, their personality still shows through. I have dated shy girls before, and I had to draw them out of their shell a little bit. It was cute and endearing, because the parts of their personality that still got to see were worth my time, and worth seeing them come out of their shell.
That being said, I had already felt some chemistry with them, and so if it was a blind date with someone, or someone that I wasn't sure of chemistry before, it would depend on how painful the date was, and (this is so awful of me to say) how desperate I am. If I have a lot of potential dating partners, then I might move on to the next one. If I have an open schedule, and no one else is showing interest, then I am more likely to have the patience to wait until that person relaxed a little so that I could get to know the real them.
