I have been emailing back and forth with this woman, and after about a week...I asked her if she wanted to meet and hang out sometime and gave her my phone number...but no calls or emails since then. Is one week too soon to ask someone if you share commom interst to meet that person?

No. If it was too soon and she was interested, she'd just say so.

I always preferred to meet right away, if they were local. Truth is, you have no idea what is going on in her life. Don't take it personally.

I know I hesitate if someone gives me their number. I had a few bad experience with that. So, one week is too soon. She probably needed time to get to know you more or feel comfortable before all of that. If she REALLY liked you, she might have taken a risk. But hey...who knows? glasses

A week would definitely be too soon for me. I waited 2 weeks once, and that was an absolute train wreck. So it would have to be longer than that for me. E-mail, IM, then maybe phone calls -- and a fair number of those -- before I would even consider meeting anyone in person. But everybody has their own schedule, I guess.

Most people like more time to get to know someone there talking to over the internet.

Maybe not to soon for a phone number, a meeting maybe, some women are just like to take things slowly..

I gave her my number so I could get to know her better, and the emails were going great.

It may have been too soon but there are no rules and if someone likes you they don't put a time limit on it. Although it does sound like she freaked. Oh well, chin up, and keep trying, that's all we can do. Never quit. Go get em Tiger!

A week being too soon would have to depend on the individual people involved. I usually wait a little longer than that, but I have met someone that quickly. A few years ago on yahoo I met a guy in one of the general chat rooms that lived in Houston, even though it was the opposite side of town. We talked for about a day or two online, then I gave him my number and we talked for about two or three days on there, and then we met in person. I think it was the best first meeting I have had with someone. We played miniature golf and games for a few hours, then went to a pool hall down the road until about midnight, then he drove me back to Putt-Putt to get my car and we ended up talking until 4 am. We had a good relationship for about 8-9months then things came up. We actually were on and off for about two-three years altogether. We still talk to this day. Others I have waited a month or so to meet. It just depends on how comfortable you two are talking and if you both are willing to meet.
