Is it too soon?

I was skeptical at first.. but I decided to just go for it and try the whole online dating thing. Obviously the "real world" dating wasn't quite working out for me, too many blind dates and friend hook ups gone wrong, so I just figured this could be Plan B. The most common thing I heard when I told this to people was "But- How do you REALLY know who you are talking to?" This is how I know. I use this site, webdate.com, that has live video chatrooms. This is a good feature because instead of searching through profiles you can actually go webcam searchin instead. I'm still new to this though so my question is this- I've been talking to someone online for about two weeks now and we share alot of common interests and have also talked on the phone everyday. Is it too soon to decide to meet in person?

No, it's definitely not too soon. You don't really know much about a person until you meet them. Really great writers often turn out to be boring and yucky in person. I always aim to meet asap and don't exchange a lot of emails or chats beforehand.
