I joined an online dating site and browsed multiple profiles that I liked. One of them actually noticed that I saw her account (the site tells you who views you), looked at me and sent me a flirt. Well, I noticed the flirt when she was online and decided to start an IM conversation with her. The conversation went really well and she seems cute, accomplished, funny, etc so I asked her on a date. Problem is that I was flying out for the weekend to meet family and interview for a job elsewhere. I set up a date with her for next Tuesday night. That's 6 days between when I talked with her and setup the date. I got her number and gave her mine and told her I would call her a night before the date to work out a time with her. Is that too long of a silent period or might that work to my advantage? I've already noticed that she's been back on the site daily since the conversation.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
