Berwin Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hi all, I have recently tried my hand at online dating (4 weeks now). I have had 2 failures so far. The first one I emailed for about 2 days and then I gave her my mobile number and we text for a bit, then we chatted on msn and arranged to meet but she got cold feet and bailed out. The second one I decided to go about it a bit differently so just emailed her a bit, got her number and called her for about 5 minutes, text her for a few days as you do, mentioned I was keen on her. She responded basically how can I be keen on her when we've never met. Never heard from her again. Okay, so there's a bit of my history and I probably went about certain things wrongly. Anyway now I'm onto woman number 3. She is nice, started emailing her 2 days ago. I don't want to mess this one up so am asking for advice from people 'in the know' about online dating and the successful ways to approach it. Also would be interested in their failures and why they think they failed so I don't make similiar mistakes. How often should I email? I'm thinking once a day is enough. At what point should I hand out my number? Or would it be wiser to wait for her to give out hers? I'm thinking it's better to wait for the woman to come to me. So basically I'm just after people's opinions on this. Thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites
