I chat with a woman online from time to time, but I want to move it on to more. I would really like to be meet her in public sometime, and if not be in a relationship then at least in some close capacity.

She said she wants to meet me so we can go for a film, and this is penned in for after Christmas. At the moment, things are friendly, but how should I move them on to more?

How long have you been talking to each other? Do you email each other? Text? Then Call each other on the phone?

Wait until you meet and see if there's chemistry. Never get too caught up with those you chat with online. I once chatted almost nightly for 2 weeks. Great conversation and she seemed like a great girl. Then I met her in person. In real life she had the personality of a rock.

But if you have a good time ask her out again and play it like a regular date. If she's willing to meet in person she's looking for at least a friend. If you dig her then let her know.

About a year now. We've spoken on the phone once, and we've been planning to meet for a few months now. Because of work, we have not been able to do so.

It sounds like you've already made plans, so what's the question? You're already getting ready to take it to the next level. Have fun.

Talk more on the Phone. You can't hide so much. Voice changes on the phone pulses and such with conversation.

Have you ever moved things on to more with a woman that wasn't an online friend?

If you have, do what you did those/that time(s).

I agree. Been there, done that. OP, don't romanticize too much about an online acquaintance until after you meet her in real life. Nothing wrong with hoping for the best, though! Your first meeting will tell a lot. Hopefully, there will be chemistry.

First meeting should definitely be in a public place. Good luck!

I have a similar problem. I am talking to someone on facebook but met her on POF. It seems so difficult to get her on the phone. She lost her phone, she defended she wasn't lying when I asked her. She seems to fluff off any question that hints meeting like, what are your plans this weekend?
So I asked her the big question. Do you want to meet me?
Before or after christmas? I figure I would ask you in this manner. Plus it sounds like I am not hurrying too. I want to get her ass on the phone though.. Her voice sounds nice based on how she sounds on her answering machine.

I don't date much, so haven't asked a woman out in a while. The thing is, she is older than I am, and I prefer to go out with older women. I'm 31, and she is about 40.
