daisy333: In my experience, if a guy is genuinely keen in getting to know you, or in continuing to see you if you've already met, there's never any doubt. They keep in regular contact and leave no doubt in your mind that they want to see you.
If you haven't met them yet it's a little bit different; you can't expect a commitment from someone you haven't met face to face, but I think you should trust your gut instincts. At this stage, I think it's a good sign that the guy is very happy when you are online and is always keen to chat when you are. If it seems that he doesn't mind if you chat or not, then maybe he's not the man of your dreams.
He may be trying to work out how genuine you are, and also trying to walk that fine line between attention and stalking. If he is keen he will move everything forward - you'll hear from him, he'll want to chat, he'll want to get to know you. He'll want to talk on the phone as opposed to just online. He'll want to meet as opposed to just keeping your relationship on the net.

Sure... but let me assure you that you will also run into your fair share of players, etc. I think some of them find luring a woman with confidence and self-respect a challenge.

The only way to know is to just go with it. Just because it says hes online dont mean he is at his comp. I will leave the window open and go off and do other things. Just be smart and use your head. Red flags will always appear more and more over time!
