I have not done this "dating online" for very long but... does everyone just give out there # and go meet for coffee, all the time untill they feel they have met the right one???? What about meeting when you live in another state, or country??

that is a good question. I wondered if groups of people got together and met? I would make some women feel safer, I think.

Chat here for a while, then maybe ph. calls, then decide to meet. If there are enough Minglers in your , yes make it a group meet.
I like to meet for coffee or lunch first.

Yup.

Plus i would also recommend demanding to see the person you are meeting on webcam as well so you know they are at least being honest about what they look like.

In the area where I live, another dating site has parties twice a month.. They have greeters so you don't have to feel uncomfortable if you go alone...I've not been to any as I always have had other plans but I hear they have a good time...

I long for the old days when you just went to a bar and got drunk. Then went home late with the best looking woman in the place and hoped she still was in the morning----

I'm not afraid of giving my phone # and meeting up for coffee once in a while, and I've met with people who live 200 miles from me. I can see how others would be scared to do that but I'm not really truely afraid of anything anymore, so I wonder. Unfortunately, not being afraid caries some interesting side effects.

I've met a few friends in the area for lunch. I've also met someone in another state... but we emailed/chatted/talked on the phone a lot before that happened.

papersmile and I yahood every day and talked on the phone or a long time (she could tell you how long, I never remember stuff like that)

we finally met when she flew from Toronto to Dallas and I picked her up and we went to a big meet with a dozen or so other people. But we hit it off so well that we ditched all the other people and went off on our own

and the rest is history

haha almost...
...but not quite

i did fly to dallas and you did pick me up, but we were alone that first time, except for meeting matt for dinner on the return trip to dallas.

it was the very next time that we met up with the group in fort worth.

but i'm still surprised (and impressed) you remembered THAT much! :tongue:

It never fails, if I give someone my number and decide to meet them for lunch or coffee...they call me 20 times a day. I don't like to be called every single day, that becomes very annoying very quick.
Any more if someone asks me for my number or even out for dinner, I just say no. It just seems like the people I have met are lonely and obsessive and I don't need anymore people like that having my number. Is there any "unclingy" men out there anymore?? LOL I didn't think so.yawn

i wouldn't ever leave the country to meet someone unless i were absolutely sure of their realness.

like dan said, i'd cam with them often enough so that i could read body language and facial expressions.

send mail to them; just a little inexpensive gift. this way, as they confirm what it is they've received, they have verified an address where they can be reached.

the more information they provide me, the more comfortable i feel about their being who they say they are, e.g. home, cell and work numbers, last names, addresses, etc.
