Got chatting to someone online tonight, well for about 5 minutes, he wanted to meet up straight away tonight!
do people not chat anymore? at least for a few days? I haven’t answered him, not sure I want too.

That does seem a little soon! I dont think I would meet that quickly either.

He's only interested in sex

That’s what I thought, know nothing about him really.

Sometimes I didn’t mind this, sometimes it’s easier to meet up in person straight away for a drink to see what someone is really like. I hate wasting time talking for weeks, it seems to be going great then when we meet in person, it’s completely off and a waste of time.

I know what you mean and I don’t mean chat for weeks, but we’ve only exchanged about 5 messages, after 2 or 3 days would be better.

Very odd! I would not go, you just don't know anyone's motives these days.

Exactly! No I haven’t gone, he messaged again saying “have I scared you off’ I haven’t replied.
