I messaged my BF first online and was the one to suggest he call me so we could "Meet up sometime for tea or something." He upgraded said request to dinner. We had dinner, and we've been happy ever since. I've never felt desperate.

 

I've only been online for a week, and already I can see why people quit. Maybe it's just better to meet people in real life. I just wanted to try online dating because quite a few of my friends have had success with it.

 

Maybe the guy is chatting with other girls he is more interested in, but I might as well try to be more assertive.

 

Just assume people are multi-dating or could be if they see a lot of interesting people, and accept it. Making it a competition or worrying about it just seems silly.

 

And being assertive kicks ass. That's the only way you get anything good in life, really---going out there and admitting you want it.
