I'm brand new to this game. I found a guy I'm really excited about, we've had 3 exchanges. Since my email comes to my phone, I get them right away and am always excited to answer right away. However, I don't want to appear like I'm checking all the time, either.

 

Is there an appropriate amount of time I should wait between sending the messages? Is this something silly to even consider?

I would wait a few hours so he wouldn't think you were over eager and had nothing else going on. In fact, make sure you are doing things so you can tell him about it even if it's something as silly as "I had to drive all over town and couldn't find a gas station where someone could check my tire pressure." I once used that one and the man offered to check my tires for me, so it was a win-win because we went to lunch afterward. I have a fear of letting the air out because I've done that in the past. :o

There's absolutely no reason to consider an email delay. If you're excited about reading them and responding back, just do that. The only thing I would worry about is sending too many, i.e. five replies to his one. Just relax. And good luck!
