okay , you`ve chated and exchanged messages, you`ve arranged the time and place to meet.
you turn up early , so that you can see this person/persons first, you catch a glimpse or you even here them talking ...you`ve taken an instant dislike to them now that you`ve met them in person as it were.
would you be a total git if you immediatley made your excuses and left...or would you spend some time with them?
told them I wasn't interested straight away. I left. Why waste their time on polite chit chat ?
I'm kinda a mix of the above two posts - I'd tell them I wasn't interested but I'd stay for a cuppa if appropriate etc.
The last thing I always say before I/we meet anyone is 'please say if you ain't comfortable with what you see/hear/feel... as I/we will'.
:P
I0d say that depends on circumstances...if one of the two (or both) has made the effort of driving a long distance, it seems appropriate to me to at least have a polite chat and a drink..in the end it's not always about shagging...for me.. .quality time is worth meeting someone even if it's not leading to the bedroom.
but yes..better to be upfront, on average.
For my part, if someone is good enough to talk to online, then they are equally good enough to chat to face to face regardless of what may or may not tanspire. If the other person wishes not to, then that';s equally fine by me.
I know it's a theoretical possibility that when a pair of people or couple meet face to face it all goes horribly wrong. But with loads of chat, phone calls, pictures or cam; what are the actual chances of all that being right and face to face being so bad that having a drink together is unbearable?
Just theorising here - not saying anyone should ever go through anything they feel less than comfortable with - I know I wouldn't.
