Update: First date went really well, we've exchanged numbers, and we'll will be seeing each other again!

I had planned to meet him for 2 hours max, but it went on for over 5 hours haha. He's a really nice and sweet fella. Wholesome. He's into cuddles and hugs. We're both of similar heights. He's slightly taller. But I'm a little more muscular than him. We've exchanged numbers, and we'll will be seeing each other again!

He's slightly taller.

You're a manlet, but I'm still proud of you. :marseyembrace:

Thanks haha, yup I'm 5'3 while he's like 5'5 or 5'4. I'm r-slurred, but what do people generally talk about over text messages when dating each other?

Oh wow, even I'm taller (5'5") than you.

Silly back and forth is all. It's more about keeping a connection alive, showing you're on each other's minds. Keep it light. Too heavy at the beginning can smell of desperation.

Thank you, yes I plan to keep it light. But I don't want to bore him tbh lol.

There is only one important rule for texting someone you're dating: the messages are bids and responses for attention more than they are about communication. Find a way to make that contact -- up to a couple times a day depending on reaction -- in a way that is sustainable, not annoying, and easy.

Like, I have a FWB across the country who sometimes visits to play, and we just send each other pictures of animals we find cute and reply with reactions. It keeps the chat alive between when we (rarely) discuss more substantial topics.

Cheers for that! Yeah for deeper and substantial topics, I'd rather discuss in person.

If your FWB lives across the country, isn't it hard to meet each other often?

I don't use my airline miles for myself (because they confer no status on use), and this is one of the other options. I wouldn't say we meet often though.

Perhaps helpful context is that my kinks are quite specific, and I travel a moderate amount for work.
