How long with just minor chatting back and forth on here would it take for you to meet the other person face to face if they asked you?

I'm not really talking about a date, but just meeting. Maybe for coffee just to see if you two click or not.


My answer:

I wouldn't mind meeting people the same day. I'm not the online chatty type of person. I like going somewhere public and just hanging out and having a conversation about whatever.

What are your answers?

I have meet the person that same day. We meet at a restaurant for coffee. Had a nice talk. But we both decide we would be better off friends instead.

Maybe the same day, maybe a few days, longer maybe. Guess it depends on the vibe I get from the person. I'm usually pretty intuitive.

I don't meet anyone anymore. I do not date locally, and long distance just isn't my thing. So I'm good at not meeting anyone, unless they just happen to visit the area.:tongue:

Haha, that's a good thing to know I suppose.

Is it bad I'm waiting on a response from a specific person? This thread was just to see if I should go for it or not.

I've met some one three days after initially chatting.. but I think it would depend on how far away they are, and on the vibe...if it feels good there are no worries
if you have your reservations.. they are probably there for a reason

If by reservations you mean the reason why I am waiting to see what they say here. I simply did it because I am sometimes a very forward person when it comes to meeting people. I usually don't waste time. Sometimes people don't like that, so its easier to discreetly see what they think about the subject.

:wink:

So if you're asking, because you've only started to chat with this person today, then why are you so worried about it? Obviously you can't know them THAT well. Just do it! :) You can dooo it.

I have met someone for coffee the same day I started talking to them and I have not met someone for months before the first meet. Just depend on work schedules, timing and traveling.

What do you have to lose? I say go for it. If anything you could make a good friend.:thumbsup:

No I meant reservations about the person you intend on meeting, not asking them..i.e. if you feel they want more than you do at the time
if their behavior has in some way raised red flags...but not so severe that you would stop talking to them altogether. I have met a few who say hey, lets meet in the next thirty minutes and see where things go... with no prior convo.. and thats just unnerving
now if we have been chatting and the conversation is going well i see no reason not to meet in person provided its an option

Just don't give up if they say o initially, and don't be offended if they bring a friend for a buffer....or protection, I watch CSI too muchshocked
