I'm so sick of Online Dating right now because a woman wants you to talk to her online for a month before giving you her phone number. Makes no sense at all especially when it's confirmed that there is a mutual attraction. If we both see that we are attracted then what is the wait? Why no transition to the phone and start getting to know each other so we can work toward meeting.

Back in 2001 when you was on a telephone dating service, you only heard voice ads and then exchanged numbers and met face to face. And not seeing what someone looked like wasn't a big deal because if a female asked me these questions I knew right away she was attractive

do you have all your teeth
what do females compliment you on the most
what do u feel is your best feature.



Now you just run into a bunch of grown woman who is scared to transition to the phone stage because for some reason they think a man's "di,,,k" is coming to come through the phone and tickle their neck

Why don't you just cut to the chase and have a full background check done on yourself that way you've got everything sorted out for her and you will verify that you're not a criminal, axe murderer, or psychopath.

Send her that information in an email.

That means you was not on Telepersonals. It was nationwide and it was in all the major cities before the emergence of online dating. It was very popular from 2000 to 2002 because I used to run home from work and just on the line.

It was the HOT THING back then.

I know, I used it before. Online dating is much better.

She's trying to weigh all of her options. She loves the attention and the fact that she has multiple men to choose from. But if she was really into you, she would not make you wait.

Except for the advancement in science and medicine they can take this modern technology and shove it.
I'm likely in the minority with this opinion but life was better without it.

I never did the phone dating but hearing ones voice has to be better than the endless back and forth games played online.
