I told him that I wasn’t going to exchange multiple emails and text indefinitely to try to build a relationship that way as experience has taught me that it isn’t wise to emotionally invest in someone until you meet them as it can get super awkward if there is no chemistry. So….haven’t heard from him since I wrote that. If I do hear from him, great, if not, then he definitely isn’t my person.
I'm 100% with you on that and have done the same. It's a time efficiency thing. I do question if incompatible online dating styles is the same as incompatible values. The "Let's talk for a year before meeting" seems common to people inexperienced with online dating. I have a friend 3 years divorced planning for her first date in twenty years. She talked to the guy for three weeks before agreeing to meet?! I suspect a half-dozen dates in she'll be playing our tune.
