Downloading Torrent without Seeds but it has limited Peers

I'm currently downloading a torrent with limited peers. I will at the very most get about 1-3 peers, with 3-6 in swarms. I leave utorrent on during the night and it usually gets about 10% every night. However, I left it on last night and it never got anything. Does this happen sometimes?

I'm a somewhat impatient guy, but I can be patient if a know progress is occurring. But in this case it concerns me that there is possible nothing that is happening. Is it safe to leave it on again and see what happens?

Check the availability of the torrent when you're connected to as many peers as possible. (...Which sounds like 3 peers.)

If it's not above the amount you already have, then there's nothing more you can get from those peers.

It shouldn't hurt to leave that torrent running and start another one if you have a reasonably fast line. If you've already uploaded a lot, (to be fair) you can even lower upload speed on that torrent and set upload slots for that torrent to 1.
