I laid down some ground rules for the Hungarian dude in my life. I told him if he wants to meet me IRL he needs to book a hotel when he comes over here, and to plan on making it a vacation/holiday or something. That way we don't have all the pressure to make things work the first time we meet.
I sort of got fried with his always wanting to talk, so have made contact via email for the last few days. I needed space, and I think he needed time to reaccess his approach. I don't know exactly what is going to happen, or what will come of this, but at least I'm trying to be reasonable and safe. Right? __________________  MY BLOG IS NOW CONVENIENTLY LOCATED HERE!!

That was smart, and you are looking out for your best interests. Good to take space if it's too much, and it's great that he has to stay in a hotel. Definitely best to take the pressure off -- congrats on setting good boundaries! =)

I think so too you made fair and reasonable rules, boundaries. Seems like your playing it cautiously ie treading carefully. Unsure what else to write since unfamiliar with IRL. My hunch is you feel you need to know him better before you proceed.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
