A forum is a place to discuss things.
Just because you do not like the turn a conversation has taken, does not mean it ends simply because you say so.
I have however read a few of the other threads you have posted on and it appears you intentionaly set out to hijack threads and cause conflict and in this case i will step away, there are already two many threads on these boards gone that way due to your comments.

what part of " carry on" didn't you understand?

The beauty about message boards is that people have free will, they can continue to discuss the topic within a topic or not as they see fit.  Personally I find it quite relevant to Llyren's initial post.

My own thoughts are that I would definitely want to meet where possible before starting to talk about intimate things and two days is not trying to rush things.  I have met people the same day as we first emailed and I had no qualms about this.  It was a coffee in a public place with someone who may or may not turn out to be someone cool.  At the very least I got to get out to a nice cafe for a drink, in the particular situation I am thinking about it ended up being a coffee followed by another and another, a quick shower at home and then dinner that evening with him and so on.

By meeting early you don't have time to build up often unrealistic expectations, you haven't had the long conversations about needs and wants, you haven't built up this picture of the other person and started thinking about how perfect a fit they are for you... my feeling is that the longer you wait to meet someone, the more chance that the image built up is incorrect and thus more likelihood of being disappointed.

My opinion only of course

let us know how it goes Llyren and happy new year

The best compromise I think is to meet people online (it's just easier and I don't go to bars) and then meet them fairly quickly in person to see if the initial attraction on the screen translates into an attraction in real life. If you spend too much time with the person online you invest too much into something that may disappoint you. After doing that too many times I just go for the meeting as soon as I can.
