I'll be honest and straightforward here, I recently met someone via online dating and for the first week, we messaged each other almost everyday. I had noticed her looking at my profile quite often and I thought it was finally time to approach her. I asked her how she was, she said she was okay, and was also annoyed at how stupid guys were online. She seemed happy to get a message from me after we talked a bit (guess it helped that I didn't even come off as a pervert for a second, and here I thought only douchebags attracted women). Two days later, I had asked if she would ever consider meeting me, and she said she'd love that. So I had deleted my profile altogether because I just didn't feel right staying on there, but not before she got my number and I got hers, so we still kept in contact via texting. Then last week, I texted her again stating I'd come to where she lives and meet her the next day. She seemed excited to hear about it.

 

Finally, Monday May 6th, 2013 came and the first thing I did was catch a bus to get there. After I got there, I told her I was here, I waited for her to get off work, she came to where my bus had dropped me off, and then took me to her place. We watched a movie on her Kindle Fire while I was being a little physically affectionate (touching her face, rubbing her back), then she paused the movie because she wanted to get comfortable with me. It was one of the best moments of my life. We looked into each others eyes while we were cuddling. In between, there was also some french kissing, me kissing her neck and nibbling on her ear, both of which she seemed to enjoy very much (also both of which I've never done before). Shortly after, she started to kiss my neck and nibble my ear, both of which felt great to me. We didn't really go any further than those things I just mentioned.

 

Unfortunately, I had to leave after four or five hours had passed because I needed to catch the bus to get back home (which I did). To this day, we still text each other every single day and not an hour seems to go by without me thinking of her. Honestly, I'm not even sure if that's love or something else entirely. Help me out here, please?

I think it may be a little early to call it love; but there's no question that there's something there....

 

it sounded like a great meet-up...

Spend more time with her, physically. Invite her to your town or visit her again. After a few months of this you'll know whether it's love or just lust.

Way too early for it to be love. Infatuation, a crush, etc.

Sounds like lust to me. It's shocking she was willing to take you to her place.

 

You do come out with some bizarre, off-the-cuff remarks sometimes.... What the thought process behind the above statement?

Ask her to go skydiving with you. If she says yes, then she likes you.

so when are you going out with her again? you should probably get to know her better before declaring love and all that.

Supposedly, she's coming over sometime this week. If she can't, I may just visit her town again.

I agree on it being too soon to take somebody back to their place, especially after first meeting them, but that's not what you asked about, so in my opinion...to early to call it love, but there is definitely potential. There certainly is a spark. See how things go a few weeks and then a few months from now. Baby steps. These things can ignite or they can fizzle. Only time will tell.

I can be such a hypocrite sometimes. Here I am telling you that this can't be love, but I told my late wife only after 2-weeks that I was in love with her. 9 months later, we were married and for 12+ good years.:)

 

But when I said this to my late wife, we had been dating and seeing each other daily for two weeks. We spent a ton of time talking, kissing, hugging, grinding, touching, etc.

 

So, I would like to say, I don't know. Maybe you are and maybe you're not.
