There seems to be no fixed rule for dating. For me, I enjoy going for coffee and chat first. For others I feel an immediate connection and want to meet right away. How do you get acquainted with a prospect?

jvaski: Turn the dating site off - leave the computer - then hit the local bar ?

jvaski once again misses the point. many of us who are here are here because we do not want to hang out in the bars

jvaski - here you go: Dating 101 : see cute profile within a reasonable distance. send message (s), chat, establish reasonable possibility of attraction and compatibility, say. "Can I have your # to call, call and ask her to meet. Maybe even ask her on a date - now there's a novel idea. I should get a Pulitzer for this!



There's a quiz tomorrowlaugh

if I find someone interesting i will message her a few times and then give her my yahoo or AIM so we can talk there. If that works out I will give her a riddle that will give her my phone number. If she solves it then she can call me and if we hit it off there I will meet her in person.

Email a few times first before meeting in person and I am actually amazed at how high the percentage was for that option in the poll results given the fact that so many men want to meet right away.
If they can't be bothered to get to know you a little online first typing PLUS if you don't feel that connection, even if purely based on friendship, then it's not worth meeting. It's not a reflection on anybody, only that there is no connection..

I am chatting to a couple of people at the moment that I would love to meet because the chat is good, steady, interesting; we have common traits/interests/life experiences. But that would take some organising as they are from other countries!!

ideally i prefer not to do it on a dating site. when i meet new people locally, male or female I usually just walk over and introduce myself

on here i have had no choice but to use e-mail, which to me seems cold and impersonal, there's no humanity to it, how does one express the genuine warmth and emotion in print?? and from great distances popping out to the nearest pub for a drink and conversation is a ridiculous suggestion.

phone conversations help some at least you can hear emotion in the other persons voice.

next step is traveling to meet, sometimes costly process.
