Search Results: finding this site

So I'm a single mother of 1 and he's a single father of 3. We are both very shy but I've gotten to a point that I can be more bold when needed. We started talking on an online dating site and have exchanged numbers etc. So for my first question: he's seemed very interested and had said things like he's so excited to meet and can't get me out of his head but now only occasionally can I get a real conversation going. We do talk every day and when he doesn't here from me he does at least send a "how are you beautiful?" text but does this lack of actual conversations seem like he's losing interest or maybe busy or shy? Second question: he asked me out on a date for last weekend (which I suggested coffee instead because of our busy schedules/babysitters so close to Christmas) to which he was excited about but then family came to town unexpectedly. I then asked him if he wanted to reschedule (date or coffee) for this weekend and he said yes but since then he kind of clammed up and it's now Friday night and he hasn't mentioned our "date" again. Is he maybe nervous to bring it up? Does it seem like he's just not that interested anymore? This is my first time using a dating site and I also haven't dated much so last question : am I just over thinking things or finding things to be worried over? Lol obviously I need some objective advice please!

I met a guy on a dating site, he's 8 years older than me, which isn't a problem for me. He's been married once and has 2 kids. He's incredibly handsome, and has been very respectful to me. We've swapped photos, we text and have talked on the phone once. We have been chatting for about 2-3 weeks now and we've both mentioned how we'd love to meet. He has such a fantastic sense of humor, i love people who makes me laugh, not to mention we have the same sense of humor, like creepy jokes too soon.. lol. Though the only cons I can think of is he's one) an inch shorter than me 2) he lives in a different state. Now we're only about 4-4.5 hours away from each other... but that's still a good hop and skip. Granted my ex was 1.5hrs from me, at one point 2.5 and we made in 2 years. But I'm nervous about traveling that far to meet someone, I do own a gun and pepper spray lol but I don't think I'd need to use either.. I say id travel bc I've always wanted to go to a certain area of the state he lives in, I live in the middle of nowhere with nothing close by lol. Also, about his humor.. we had just swapped phone numbers close to Thanksgiving and I texted him, i got a reply, then a message from another number asking why I was texted her husband.. and they had 5 kids together... then I got a pic of a woman, a man and him.. saying they were his extended family and had to break me in right.. which I found hilarious after the finding our it was a joke. He said he had no idea until after the message was sent, they said his jaw dropped.. but anyways, he told them about me.. and a buddy at work as well he told me today he showed him a pic I had sent him this morning. Any advise on meeting, and experiences with this? Did it work for you?
