TheRock Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 I met a woman on-line a few days ago. She saw my profile and e-mailed me. I e-mailed her back and we've been e-mailing each other back and forth once a day so far and it's going well. These days, with all the whackos out there people are cautious and hesitant to give out their phone #'s to soon. Don't want to blow it by asking too soon, so... When should I ask her for her phone #? And, When is it appropriate to ask her to get together? Figured on asking her to meet me at a coffee shop or lounge near her town. Thanks
RedRose3373 Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Hello I have a new boyfriend that i met online & have been dating now for almost 3 weeks. We emailed each other for like 1 week, then he gave me his number & i called him & then we met that following weekend & have been together ever since. Good luck! I think i found 'the one' on match.com, unbelieveable!!
Outcast Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Give her your phone number rather than asking for hers.
flavius Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 The farther she lives, the longer you wait. Six miles, six days. Sixty miles, six weeks. Six hundred miles, six months. Six thousand miles? Just buy her by mail order and be done with it.

SmoochieFace Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 You ever have anything actually useful to say? Not sure why you said that. FLAVIUS *does* have a point with what he said...

Thanks All you have to say to her is, "when you're feeling comfortable enough, it would be really great if we could talk on the phone. I'll let you decide when you want to." And then see how she responds to that. Just let her know you really are OK with how things are now as you don't want to freak her out or come on too strong. Another option too is, do voice chat instead of the phone. Just a suggestion. Good luck, keep posting!
MadDog Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Not sure why you said that. FLAVIUS *does* have a point with what he said... "Buy her by mail order?" That's just plain insulting. This isn't the only post either.
SmoochieFace Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 "Buy her by mail order?" That's just plain insulting. This isn't the only post either. Uh... he may have meant it in jest. Hey, different people are *insulted* by different things, ya know, and it didn't bother me in the least. I thought it was a bit funny myself.
MadDog Posted March 14, 2006 Posted March 14, 2006 Uh... he may have meant it in jest. Hey, different people are *insulted* by different things, ya know, and it didn't bother me in the least. I thought it was a bit funny myself. Yeah he probably did. It's no big deal to me. I just feel kinda badly for the people he's responding to but if they don't care I guess neither should I. I take back what I said about the "don't you have anything useful to say." He obviously does. I just think he should be a little less cavalier about his responses. I think I just need to get laid. That's the main problem here. If only I didn't have to study so much. Forget what I said Flavius. MD

gfto Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Rock, too much back and forth e-mailing will not help your cause. In your next e-mail, ask her to meet you at the coffee shop, but do not ask her for her number in the e-mail. Wait until the coffee shop date to ask for her number. And, once you've scheduled the coffee date, no more e-mails until the date.
Guest Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Hurry up and ask for her number, the sooner you meet the sooner you'll be able to determine whether she's a whacko or not. Also- if she took the initiative with your first..trust me she's sitting around going..come on you putz ask me for my number and let's get the road on the show!
flavius Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 So Rock, are you still there? How far off does she live? You don't want to be a long-distance stalker, but a there's no excuse too small for a good road trip. Also, have you swapped photos? You don't want to drive to Yuma AZ if it might turn out she thinks you're mismatched.
