Back when I was dating, we did very basic talking first about who we are, what we do, where we’re from, etc... Then we’d meet in a public place (yikes, sometimes I’d even have them pick me up in their cars- I don’t think anyone does that now). As the date progressed, all that more detailed, personal information would come out.

My mother trained me to be like that saying there’d be nothing left to talk about on the date. So, my observation is you have been doing too much online chatting before ever meeting him. If he fell asleep while you were chatting...

I think the idea of meeting during the pandemic wearing masks is funny, but that’s what will have to be during this time, so go for it. Just be sure you are in a public place with others around.

I hope there hasn’t already been sex talk yet. That would have put this budding relationship onto the wrong track from potential boyfriend to hook up. This is just my old school way of thinking talking...but I still believe in it.

When I met my husband, at a bar, he told me his occupation which was very successful. My cousin told me the next day, when I repeated it, that I was an idiot to believe him and how he must have lied. But he didn’t lie. All he said was true. Our struggles didn’t start until after we were married and had a baby. . Good luck to you!
