Another online dating Q... when do you meet up?
This is my first time online dating. I've exchanged a couple of e-mails with one guy (just this morning). It's kind of hard to get used to. I'm much better at face to face conversation than e-mail. I'd much rather just meet up to see if we get along. Is it an online dating faux pas to ask to meet up after only a few e-mails?
Re: Another online dating Q... when do you meet up?
Not a faux pas at all and in fact I prefer to meet up sooner rather than later. I find that it's a waste of time "getting to know" someone over email if you don't have a connection in person. Also, it's tough to "get to know" someone through email at all. Sometimes people suck at email and are better in person, sometimes you had a great written connection but the spark isn't there in person.
I value my time and don't want to waste it so I often will suggest meeting up before they do. It can be a natural progression from an email (I like hiking and wine tasting. Me too. Wanna grab a glass of wine?) or I will just flat out ask if they'd like to grab a drink or coffee.
