Picking people up is like selling a product: yourself.

Talking to someone in person is much easier once the huge obstacle of asking them out has been overcome. I wasn't talking about building a whole relationship online, only about asking someone out on a (real) date. The date itself would be physical. That's the whole point. That's what OP was talking about.Blood Fetish said:I understand that they have more confidence typing, but what is their long-term plan? To never be in the same room with the person they are dating?
Eventually they need to be physically present and carry on a conversation. Get your practice in now.
