I don't think doing it in person is necessarily the best option in all situations... I can think of some where I'd prefer the phonecall (for example to spare you the nervousness for the date). But I do think you went about it very nicely and gentlemanly. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Good luck with C number 1, happy to hear you two clicked so well!! [img]smile.gif[/img]

You did good Magik, I honestly didn't know you had it in ya to be nice. J/K I wouldn't have told C2 about C though. And is a full name that much of a hassle? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yah, you did good. Although for me I try to set up dates one at a time so if it works out I can avoid the little complication that you endured. However you handled it very well.

I guess I'm cold-hearted, then. I would have explained things over the phone. Like Melusine said, spare her the jitters of meeting a virtual "blind date". Not only that, but she could be wondering if your excuse was factual. She could think that you had a nice fabrication ready just in case you didn't like her looks. You just never know how someone is going to interpret something, even when it is the truth...
*just as an aside, I would normally recommend face to face if it's someone you already "know". But you two really didn't "know" each other, other than online.* [ 11-19-2002, 04:00 PM: Message edited by: Ace of Spades ]

I agree: you're always a jackass. [img]graemlins/evilhaha.gif[/img]
No, seriously, being man enough to meet with the girl and tell her to her face is always the best route. Besides, who knows, you could have struck gold twice. |

I agree - absolutely a jackass - looks like that vote is overwhelming - but, it seems, an honorable jackass with a kind and compassionate side - good luck with C number 1 you hopelessly romantic curmudgeon

Sorry about using C and C2 [img]smile.gif[/img] I was being a bit goofy. There was a real reason I didn't use their names though, Colleen I can say and spell, I have a real hard time with cecilia's name for some reason [img]smile.gif[/img] So since it is hard for me to pronounce Cecilia I just said C2 [img]smile.gif[/img]
