If you exchanged 20+ emails with someone without speaking to them on the phone or meeting them then you are the chump my friend! I like to cut to the chase pretty fast. It's just a phone number. I can block them if they blow up my phone. Exchanging endless texts and phone calls without meeting is a waste of time IMO. I like to talk a little bit so I have some idea what they're like but I want to know if we get along in person because if we spend 4 weeks talking and texting and then dislike each other in person that whole 4 weeks was nothing but a waste of time!

You are right and I have allowed it like a FOOL. But it all ends tonight, my new limit is 6 emails.

If they're talking to you, I propose they are not paranoid enough.

Bless your heart. You surely do not get wiser with age. You'll be doing this same kind of stuff at age 75. At your current age there's a whole lot of smarts you are definitely missing.

So that you can confirm to her that she made the smart decision in NOT giving you her number? Nice.

I personally don't like giving out my number to online guys. My phone number is my ONLY phone number and I consider it very personal. I don't talk on the phone that much to begin with, so I really don't want to some guy I've never met. Plus, it doesn't take a whole lot for a guy to disinterest me, so if he has a weird voice or says my name too much (had a guy put my name in every sentence and it put my teeth on edge!), I won't give him a chance. Much better to meet, get the whole package, and give the guy a decent shot...

Yep. And many women like to talk many times before meeting.

See I was stood up meeting someone face to face just chatting through email so I don't want to do it again. I asked the waitress..."excuse me did you see a girl in here wearing glasses and a ponytail hairstyle in the last 30 minutes"

The waitress says."NOPE" and then I said....."Ok can I have a chicken on flatbread to go?"


LOL
