And block access to your phone info.
I hate talking on the phone, so I would go to email, to messaging on Skype to eventually (and only if I have to!) talking on the phone.
I have met people quicker than talking to them on the phone
will keep that in mind coz i never do thought of that
i hate skyping because as soon as my cam is open i see things that are not relivant and become the subject of microscoping .
Real gems of wisdom lol
Real gems of wisdom lol
I don't use the camera because it doesn't work
And even if it did, I have no problem whatsoever in saying no to anything
It is their problem at the end of the day if they don't believe you.
think i will just do that instead .
have been scared of skype because of stuff that i have seen there its really nice to see who u talking to and be sure they are real but i have been turned off .
now i will try what u have said for a change .
its best coz its instant and u know when u have a message but it can be so annoying especially if u just dont want to talk to that person at that moment sometimes i have family members ii use it with and as long as u online everyone knows .
Generally(when I'm dating) my first or second message will include an offer to meet or chat little first. If she wants to chat first, after a few messages if we're getting along I'll offer my number.
I'll also offer my number if we plan to meet, so we can change plans or let each other know if something comes up.
If I were a woman, for local dating I wouldn't give out my phone number until after the first meeting.
anti social advice only.
even if i say outright i am at work the messages never stop.
had someone here stop talking to me because i ignored his message while i was at work after i told him i was .
and it hasnt been the first time i have had to told him he just didnt respect my job.
u always are amusing
now i am so confuse because i dont know what i am doing wrong .
sometimes i feel like a pawn talking to someone only to have to get rid of them because i dont use skype or because they just dont understand that at i gotta work.
even at home i have my chores to do and cant be messaging all the time
If some man doesn't accept that, dump him immediately and count your lucky stars you got away lightly.
i wonder whera are all the good men
u have refine it very well i like how u put that just now , how u think about the other persons feelings and all , very reasonable .
and the last part about a few days with him abroad , i do agree and anyway i wouldnt agree to meet a local in a few days much less lol.
thats one thing that scare me about it the meeting and their expectations ,
i need someone who is willing to take the time out to get to know me with my clothes on not off
But usually harmless
and always be the first to blame the woman even when he knows he is the one at fault.
we have to learn how to care for ourselves .
Happening
Only when your ready to share, not before
after my ex and i broke about 2 years after i met a man well the first man i consider exchanging talks with that is .
he use to visit me and because he drove i use to just sit in the vehicle and talk.
he never took me out and i never ask.
one evening he called and told me he will not be driving that evening , that he will just take a cab , instantly the bell in my head went off.
i was like really? and y wouldnt you be driving? its not as if we live miles apart. but his thoughs was he would come and we would talk until it was to late to go home .
what a laugh i just told him no.
after that one evening he pick me up from class to show me where he lived and when i when we reach his house we went inside i sat on a chair and we were talking then he suddenly have something to search for and then he is tired and need to sleep. i sat and watch him sleep for a while with growing anger and then i told him to take me home , he was like u "u know its not good to drive so tired come lay beside me at that moment i was in so much rage because i told this man i need to get home to my kids,
so i just stood and ask him for my fair to get home and he gave me and i hit the road it was pitch black but i walked to the main road and catch a taxi nex he called i only ask if he really have the nerve to call me again.
so i dont think if i meet someone i dont think a few days will buy him the ticket in my clothes
