Met online - pick me up at home?
| Sun, 02-04-2007 - 1:13pm |
I am new to online dating.
How many E-mails/phone calls do you consider enough before you meet for coffee?
How many times do you meet at malls and coffee shops before they can pick you up at home?

There is no rule of thumb about how many dates before picking up at home - the only #1 rule is "SAFETY".
If I feel a connection with someone and they are calling/contacting me and not playing any games I'd let them pick me up at home after...say ... a month.
Online dating can be so sketchy that it's better to err on the side of caution and meet them in public and then maybe after a couple dates meet at his house.
I did let my husband (we met on Yahoo) pick me up at my place on the 3rd date, but we'd been chatting online for close to a month and had this really great connection. Before that - I hardly ever let anyone come over, especially since I have a daughter and my concern was for her safety first.
