Do you prefer email, chat, phone?
Find a Conversation

If you have met someone online though a personal ad or something and you are interested in getting to know better/date them, when you communicate, do you prefer email, chat or do you move it to the phone?
I'm just curious...
It seems so many women are into chatting more than anything nowadays and I'm finding more and more that is the type of woman I'm not interested in talking too.
It seems to me when you meet someone that just likes to chat all the time, it is like their online life is just waaay too busy for them to stop for a second to communicate directly with one person or something? If you are chatting with someone and they are "multi-tasking" and chatting with 5-6 other people at the same time, somehow I don't feel that they are that serious then about dating or anything, I'm only getting a small portion of their attention.
There are many times when I'm not on the computer when they are and if all they want to do is chat, we'll never communicate. Plus I figure if they want to chat to get a "real" conversation, why not just move it to the phone so you can really talk?
I prefer email mostly for all my initial conversations. That way at 8am I can write someone a nice email, ask questions, answer theirs (if they had already sent me one)... they could still be in bed at that time sleeping or whatever, they don't HAVE to be right in front of the computer at the same time I am writing my letter. So then I go off to work and they are up at 10am and can answer my email while I'm busy working. Then when I get home at 5pm, I can read their email and answer them back... etc...
Here a whole conversation could have taken place between two people, whereas if a woman only wants to chat late at night or whatever, we'll never talk because we aren't on at exactly the same time...
Are there still women out there that prefer email over chatting? Am I strange or odd for feeling this way?
I'm just curious...
