I just have a quick question, I have just started online dating, been separated for almost 4 years now but it has taken me until now to even contemplate dating. I have never done online dating before, I have started chatting to someone and he seems nice. But it is always me who has to start the conversation, out of maybe the 5 times we have messaged I started the conversation 4 times and him once. Once we are chatting he is always very quick to respond, sometimes the messaging goes on over a period of a couple of hours so quite a lot of back and forth. Even our shortest conversation has been for about 45 mins. Out of the 5 times we have spoken I am always the one to say, right I am going to go now, and then a little line what I am going to do ie Right I am going to go now, have to get to the shops or something like that. And then he will always responds with something like, Nice to chat to you or Have a good day etc. If I end the conversation do you think I should be the one to start, or not necessarily? (I am sure that someone will tell me that it shouldn't be this difficult, it should just flow, shouldn't need to think about it etc, and I totally agree! I just can't help bring an overthinker!!)
