Back when I was dating, I never took anybody seriously if they didn't want to meet. Not that I ignored them altogether if they emailed, but I defintely didn't take them seriously if they didn't want to meet.
For all I knew, they could be obese gay men posing as women, so... email only was a red flag too.
Have I confused you?
