paperboy48 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 I met a girl online on Monday night. We have a lot in common almost to the point where it is scary! We went to the "text zone" this mornng. I iniatied and within a 1/2 half she texted me with a very funny text. Iwant to ask her out for this coming weekend becuase next weekend I have my kids. Is it too soon to ask her out? Sidenote: I met her on Match. I can't stand how they show if your connection is online or if they have been online in the last hour, 24 hours, etc.
MidwestUSA Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 No, it's not too soon. She'll think she was a last minute sub if you wait. Go for it and good luck! 1
Balzac Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 If you don't ask you'll never move this forward.
mammasita Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Nope, go for it. I met a guy on line this past weekend and we've been texting. He asked me out for this Friday yesterday. Totally understandable since we both have kids. GOOD LUCK
Author paperboy48 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Posted September 18, 2013 I can ask her out via text, right? Don't have to make the traditional phone call, right?
mammasita Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 I can ask her out via text, right? Don't have to make the traditional phone call, right? It depends. Some women are more traditional and might prefer a phone call. I personally don't mind setting a date up via text. How do you read her?
pteromom Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 So I guess this means you broke it off with the lady you were seeing who wouldn't wear makeup and gained weight?
Lansing Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 One of the reasons I don't call is I feel like the girl might find it "weird" if I call... like, everyone texts nowadays... I would call if I am trying to figure out details of something and going back and forth with text would just take too long..

Set it up via text, and we can firm up the details with a call the day of or something. But that's me. I HATE talking on the phone.
Author paperboy48 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Posted September 18, 2013 GOOD LUCK Thank you One of the reasons I don't call is I feel like the girl might find it "weird" if I call... like, everyone texts nowadays... I would call if I am trying to figure out details of something and going back and forth with text would just take too long.. I think she'd be ok with a text! It depends. Some women are more traditional and might prefer a phone call. I personally don't mind setting a date up via text. How do you read her? I agree, I mean if everyone didn't text and it was ten years ago but, I am under the impression its almost wired and awkward to call. I did that once last time I was online and it felt awkward an unecessary.

I would call if I am trying to figure out details of something and going back and forth with text would just take too long.. Not everyone "enjoys" texting though. Why not text her to set up a phone conversation and then ask? I've never asked someone on a date via text. Always via voice. Good luck!
FitChick Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 If you've never heard the sound of her voice it can be very instructive. I agree with the others and would text, "I'd really like to speak with you soon. Would you be available tonight? Let me know what time works for you. If you'd prefer, you could call me instead. My number is ______"
