Ok so I've been chatting with a potential. We click on the phone VERY easily. We talked for 3 hours last night. I haven't done that since highschool. We never ran out of things to talk about. We have alot of the same interests and I'm impressed by his level of intelligence. He's traveling to visit me next weekend. There has been so much chemistry on the phone that it has me wondering if there will be that same sparks in person. We've seen pics of each other and there is a mutual interest. My instincts tell me that this one is different. Before I've chatted aimlessly with men about nothing too important.Now I'm having in-depth convos about every aspect of life. This man is the package deal, but I'm worried that I'm setting myself up for failure. I explained how I wanted to start things off the right way with him( real effort=waiting to be intimate until we know each other), but I can't invest everything based off of phone convos alone. I don't want to rush into anything, but I'm really digging the guy. Do you think I'll like him as much in person as I do from our chats?

Meet as soon as you can...the longer you wait the more you build the person up in your mind and that might not be reality.

I would say try not to overthink it too much. If this guy is is a good fit for you, things should have a sort of natural progression. The fact that that your anxious about meeting eachother is a good sign that you guys will "click". Good luck meeting him, have some fun!

Personally I feel that if you set up expectations of this guy and your relationship that you end up setting yourself up for disappoinment and possibly failure. Just let things happen.

In other words your expectations can lead to disappoinment and failure.

Also remember that you are what you seek. If you want it to work then it will, if you think it's going to fail then it will.

Think positive and good luck. I'll say a little prayer for you.

Take your time, and make sure he respects that. Rush in equals failure almost every time, keep it steady and slow. Don't invest too much emotion early, allow time for the emotion to grow.

Don't fret, just meet the guy, make sure that he's what you want in a man, take your time and stick to your boundaries, let everything else happen naturally.

Astrology says we are not a match, but I shouldn't listen to that...right?!

You said,there has been so much chemistry on the phone that it has me wondering if there will be that same sparks in person.

I think this is the one thing most worry about. If you really want to know if it's there. the best way to find out is by using a cam. I have met three women this way and going to meet someone in July that i have chatted with on cam and every time i have used the cam. the person that i went to meet looked the same and the chemistry was there. Now how the person may act othere then what you see or hear on the phone, cam, email is a whole new thing. Thats the actual test if you were to say. Is this person the same as they have been the whole time we have shared with each other. I cant stress enough on people. Don't go by pic's of people. never know when that pic was tacken. Use the cam and at least from there you can get your idea if the attraction is there....

If chemistry is there on the phone then likely it will be there in person. It's about the person, how you relate, etc not based on the physical and I for one think that is the best way to start a relationship, as friends that became friends without the is he or she skinny enough, tall enough etc getting in the way. Good luck!!

steak knife in your purse at all times, If trouble stick and twist, best advice I can give, because Charles Manson could sound like Prince Charming on the phone.
