Any person who is not yet committed to anyone has the right to explore online. If there was a delay in his reply, there must be a reason for that and if there is, why don't you try to find out. Give him a chance to prove himself worthy of your attention and know what's exactly his intentions are, if it's just friendship or in the long run when you establish good rapport it may lead to a more serious relationship, how will you know if you won't try to see. Let him show you what he's got and only then you will know his true intentions. Don't expect too much from one text or call. If he is truly interested with you, he will make a way to contact you and consistently communicate with you in the long run. Just entertain, get to know him, observe, establish friendship and see where it leads. Just be careful of those men whose game is collecting women and who likes to play around, those are uncontrollable and they are lurking somewhere in the dark. Be careful when you mingle. Stay positive, have an open mind and open heart:wink: :heart: think :thumbsup: waving

I'm talking about people in general don't like talking on the phone. I'm not dating anyone. I hope the next man I am dating can talk on the phone with me at anytime, just like he would want me to call at anytime.


Calling is good for me too but face-timing with skype etc is even better . Body language gives so much texture to a conversation along with the sound of a person's voice .:smile: And on a different note , I relate to your point about the long distance being a complication. Living in the Caribbean, I dont have the luxury of meeting anyone here for coffee or a pleasant lunch. The guy and I have to eventually take a plane to meet each other in person if mutual interest is there. And then fly back and forth if things develop further. But hey.. where there is a MUTUAL WILL, there is a way. If both parties are committed to the process, BOTH will email, call , skype and skydive if they have to to make it work with the person they want :smile:

Forget messy orgies, emotional or otherwise!!
Lets first get, to the party.
This is the comparison. Men's brain is like a waffle...compartments for everything. Women's like spaghetti, yup! complicated . And off course, they are known for window shopping, and this spills over into online dating...lol...my point being, for a guy this online dating is not so complicated after all...all i am saying...


This is the first time I am being compared to spaghetti . And I like it!!! Don't stop you silver-tongued flatterer!You're making me weak in the knees!laugh

Texting or calling.

Once a person gets to the point of giving a phone number out, then the only reason to text is if you do not get a answer when you call. If that person does not have the respect to either answer or call you back then get rid of that person they probably have a wife/husband. Time to move on.

Has something changed recently? Is there a new rule guys are following in regards to texting or messaging? I am clueless as to this. I've meet some guys once. I text the next day then 2 weeks pass before they reply back. Why does e even bother at that point???? I don't have time or patience for games. Either you're interested or not......



I've experienced such too mostly with white guys. Makes me lose interest in the friendship that never even started.

Do not kid yourself, women to , employ this tactic.They fish different ponds, use different lures and bait, and as always when they get the fish , they then decide whether its going to be a keeper or one to put back into the pond....catch and release policy.
True story. I dated a woman from this site....turned out she was a serial dater. In my humble opinion, she gave regular women a bad name...all I am saying...


Is it serial dating if you are not having sex with the guys?


I cannot answer that. Third date on we are doing a lot more than having coffee dates...all I am saying...lol...

I would love for a guy to chat with on a real phone call, but if he can't even send a text his likelihood of picking up the phone to call is low

I need as much practice as I can get as I was married for the first twenty years of my adult life. I'm not familiar with dating rituals online or real life. I'm just trying to get clued in so I might have success in love while I still can.
