How would they get to know each other if they kept guessing each other's thoughts? After all, she wouldn't know what he was thinking if he wouldn't say it, right? Moreover, since it seemed impossible to predict her, he might as well be honest and train her to do the same.
They still have two dates left. So, while the agreement between each other stands, Matthew wanted to get to know her and vice versa. In that case, they would have a mutual agreement if they wanted to continue the abrupt decision from last night.
