The one thing I can say is that when you do meet someone online and talk to them on the phone to me you get to know them a bit better (if you are asking the right questions) than if you were dating in person.

Like for instance you go out on a date with someone and you go to dinner. Are you really going to be asking the "deep dark" questions about hwo they feel about things or are you going to answer their questions as easily as you would without looking them directly in the eye. Sure you can get more of a feel for the person with them right there in front of you and see their expressions and so on. But are we really getting to know them with all the distractions going on around us? We have or tend to be more in tune to them on the phone and ask more in depth questions. I do like talking to ppl on the phone to get to know them I'm able to ask more questions "sooner" than maybe the 5 or 10th date. So to me talking on the phone for an hour is like 3 - 5 dates.

With all that said... Dating online to me isn't that scary what is scary to me is when it's time to do something about it. You all know what my answer is there..... Living separate for the first 6 - 12 months!
