It's also normal to shop a bit for an instructor you "click" with.
Since you'll spend a decent amount of time in close quarters, under
hot, cold, and stressful conditions, the relationship is important.

Go chat with some more guys and gals, and see how you feel with them.

Unless you just dislike the guy, it is also recommended to
talk to the instructor about your feelings and expectations.
Communication is a key ingredient (even requirement) between
CFI and student.

Sometimes too often I hear advice such as "go find another CFI.."
when in reality simply sitting down with your CFI to discuss
concerns and/or feelings can open up a whole new channel of
communication with each other. Potentially the CFI can develop
a new respect for a student because he sees they are serious
about their training, know what they want and are not afraid
to express themselves regarding their feelings, concerns and
expectations. The student does have a level of responsibility
to communicate with the instructor and the instructor has the
responsibility to respond to and accept the student. From
this relationship the learning process takes place.
