Well... from my experience: if your counterpart is an overconfident son-of-a-peach, when there's no grounds for being that way, then it's definetely a "he". Empirical evedence, as meeting in person, supported my theory so far.
Good for you. The only thing I can tell from hearing a voice is whether I like or dislike it. The manner in which a person converses contents a lot of information, though. As does a correspondence.
15 min away? I would go straight to a date.
But everyone conducts their affairs as it fits them.
I won't give anyone my phone number before meeting in person.
I prefer to see information; I'm very bad at understanding it by ear, numbers and dates are the worse. (Sure, there's a clever word for that.)
Then there's a thing with voice: if I don't find it attractive at once, I wouldn't be eager to meet him in person. But your voice is the only asset you can use on the phone. In person, there's a lot of other factors and dimensions, that can outweight a shortage in one feature.
If someone doesn't behave exactly as you, can mean that the other person isn't exactly as you and nothing beyond that. Don't jump to conclusions.
Well... I've been to several towns in Siberia, in Turkey, in Egypt, on Cape Verde, now in Caribbean: I do take myself out of Europe. I'm actually go out more often, than within. If there sun and sea in winter - I certainly will consider the option :)
But then there're the usual matters of budget, distance, bang-to-buck ratio... The practical stuff.
After a second thought I stick to my first suggestion: a low-income Southern EU country under low season. In that way more people would be able to afford it.
Advantages: friendly locals; relatively high standard; low prices in general; cheap red wine of good quality; orange juice from real oranges, not a carton; we Northerners would get some sunshine before summer, you Southerners would get some chill; possible to cancel reservation on short notice (low season); approximately same cost for everyone...
The majority of CS posters are Anglophone Europeans, mostly Ireland. Pakistan is too far away for everyone, but you. We all can, of course, make an effort and meet on your farm, but I'm afraid that you would be forced to move afterwards, as your neighbours will never accept anything less. Be rational now.
