I ask them to send me an EMAIL message. They argue with me. Can't we text or can't I call?? Too argumentative. Delete

People asking to go off site for chatting = Red Card

. . . or penalty flag.

Messaging is free in Mingle including the ability to share pictures. What do you think you can say in an email that you can't say in a Mingle message?

Totally agree they try to give me a number the first few e-mails and that is all it takes for me to back off..

What If they want to hear my Deep voice?

I don't suggest to use email as you can exchange PMs here as well. Only when it seems to be going someone, and only one of my Gmail addresses which aren't in my real name, never my own private mail addresses.

Texting, only when it seems to be going somewhere. And if he wants that to get comfy on the couch while watching tv, only replying during commercials --> DELETE
(I've been there).

Calling, it is important but only when you really seem to be going somewhere with someone, and both want to meet up.

Charge them by the minute.

No thanks, if that's the first thing that they ask then I'd be the one to block them.

Asking for my off site email address too early on,
is the same as, offering / asking the phone number
too early on.

This is free I'm not giving people my email.

how are you doing today

I'm trying not to know anyone better.
