Question!

OK, I'd sent the email to the guy I met the other night and was getting bummed because I hadn't heard back. Well, I just got a message that it was undeliverable because silly me, I'd left a letter out of the address.

SO my question is this - I am actually kinda glad it didn't send b/c I'd said something like "if you'd like to chat, here's my number". I usually don't do that and felt wierd after I'd sent it. Should I just say that it was nice to meet him and to have a good trip or should I throw in the number?

Thanks for the input!

I would include the number if it was me, I think.

Well, pooh - I din't include the number b/c I chickened out. But I did get a nice response from him - it shows he listened to what we talked about b/c he wished me a nice trip to visit my parents (remembered the city I'm going to) and said that we should try to talk when he gets back. So, we'll see. I guess I'll leave it in his court now.

Well, there never was a first date so there can't be "another". :-) I met him at an 8 at 8 (dinner club) dinner. They set up 4 men and 4 women for dinner and he was one of the guys. We all exchanged cards at the end of the meal but I didn't know if I had demonstrated well enough that I was interested. We'd had good conversation but I get shy when it comes to the flirty stuff sometimes so I probably didn't do a good job. But his reply was nice enough so we'll see.

I am also chatting with a nice guy from eHarmony. We talked for about 30 minutes the other night and are going to meet after my trip. He sent a nice email through the site saying it was good to talk to me and reaffirming we should meet when I get back. I sent a quick reply echoing the sentiment and then giving him my real email address if he'd like to keep in touch over the holidays. I figure it can be a little awkward to be talking on the phone to someone you hardly know over the holidays - it seems so personal! So hopefully we'll still chat in some way,
