You both agree there is a nice click on line, you've had three or four great conversations through email or text and a phone call or two... and you decide to meet up to see how that is.

Describe to me what you normally do.

Tell me what would be your ideal meet up.
I'm a fairly "nice looking", reasonably well educated, reasonably well-cultured, well educated, older woman. I'm good humoured and a pleasant dinner companion. I sometimes arrange to meet people in my travels: largely because I'm interested in a local viewpoint on where they live; how they live there and why; and sometimes because I find them particularly intriguing. I generally make it clear that I'm just passing through and my life will remain elsewhere.

Twice now, in many many encounters, this has led to people making the arduous journey to Canada to live with me... for long relationships... I have never been moved to do the same and likely never will. My business and long time interests keep me here and I've seldom wanted for local companionship. I enjoy those I meet, however briefly, but I do not lie or make promises I'm essentially unlikely to keep.
