What period of time would be reasonable, all things considered, before you meet in person someone yo (16)
I did not vote as the people I have met on other sites and soon one from this site( hopefully real soon) comes down to when both people feel comfortable...rushing or hesitating can lead to disaster..good luck

Metson: Some of us are new to this online dating thing and others have done this for some time now. Assuming you have met someone you like on this or any other dating site, if you are seriously looking for a mate the next step will be to meet them, hopefully to escalate things!
The question is: how soon would be decent, all factors considered?
I hope to learn from you and that you too can enrich your perspective from others. My take is there is no right or wrong answer!
Have fun! Oder Viel Spaß!

That depends on you and the other person, my friend.
There has been time when me and other women have communicated for a week and decided to meet. Other times it was one or two months, sometimes six months and one time 2 days! There are no recipe for online meetings leading to real life meetings, you have to see how comfortable she is, especially regarding private conversations about private stuff.
And sometimes, you just have to grow balls and ask, what's the worse that can happen, she says no? Cool, then you know to move on, no time wasted on time wasters!!

As soon as you both decide you want to, I have no tome for endless emails, the only way to know if you actually want to date someone is to meet them.

as soon as possible, you may waste you time writing a lot, then reality may show to be totally different, nothing is better than a real meeting.
you may agree already in the first email if you want/expect the same things of each other, then why wait?
when i read others here, the "normal"pattern is first write a lot, then speak on the webcam or on the phone a lot.
what people have left to talk about when they eventually meet?

I can't speak for anyone but myself. I was involved with a guy online for almost 7 months he lived an hr from me by flight 6 hrs by drive. After asking when we can meet and he saying "soon" always, it left me frustrated. Finally he would give me an estimate date and then bam it came and passed with nothing. I finally said see ya. I think if people drag it out for a long time period, there is a reason and a deeper issue. Do ur homework like I did, it won't take u long to figure out the game being played. I might add I also was gonna pay for the whole trip jst so we could meet, even if nothing more then to say hey those 7 months were hell but it sure is nice to meet u dude.

too many moving parts to put a time on it.
when both folks decide it's time.
and add to the mix, distance...
i think ideally, it's best to meet as soon as possible.
but when distance/cost is added to the equation...i don't think it's
reasonable to expect one to cross the globe without having
a sense of knowing each other first.

It would be hard to put a time limit on when, you just gotta feel the vibe and go with your gut instinct.

Would have to depend on how far away the person was.

The Distance-Factor is a BIG consideration...
If they live reasonably close by...a quick discussion could result in meeting the same Day....or at most, in a day or two.
Further distances require more planning and discussion.
