devon80: 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!
Thank you for such helpful insight. I appreciate you taking time to post on this thread.
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.
PandoraX: 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.

PandoraX: How about self-confidence, a brown leather corset belt, and a brown suede fringed thigh-high boots? That's what I had on today in the unusually fabulous weather.
How can you tell when a man is being "for real" as he says he wants to get to know you.
Sends sweet emails (and sent a couple of flower emails) but is not consistent/sporadic in communication. As you at times can see he has been online or is currently on line but no communication.
How to interpret this??
I look forward to some great helpful insight from y'all.
Thank you.
One can never interpret anything on CS.......all is never as it seems......

Hi Blessings Saved.
Thank you for your reply, and yest very good advice bout not giving my heart too easily.
Well I did hear from him yesterday, so at least he did not come to any harm, but the excuses were just so incredibly lame, and cyber "I am sorry" cards, just don't cut the mustard.
I will not write him off completely, as I really do like him, but I am feeling reserved and a little guarded towards just how serious he is on this dating site, or whether it is just a game.
Also while I am here, I would just like to say how awesome these forums are, it is so nice to have other people to discuss topics with, and everyone is so supportive but also candid in their advice. I have to say I think this is the best dating site I have been on, mainly because of the forums and the "human" contact that is lacking on other sites.
