I have had a little crush on a guy for about the last 9 months... his kids and my daughter go to the same ballet class. I have spoken with him a few times and always enjoyed our conversations but it was only a couple of months ago that I actually sussed out his status (seperated & single!)
I have always felt some mutual attraction happening and have flirted with him every chance I get but am not the type to just ask him out....
Amazingly, I open up my e-mails this morning and there is an RSVP kiss from him! I have had a profile on there for a few months, have got lots of kisses but yet to meet anyone who I find really appealing... until now! I am so excited that he has made the move and can't wait to hear from him again. If he asks me out I will say yes immediately, I mean I already know a lot about him and I know I am attracted to him and I think we have a lot in common too.
Anyway, I am going to walk around all day today with a dumb smile on my face... he he he
Wow how exciting!! I met my hubby on RSVP and remember how chuffed I was to see his kiss!! Good luck!!

adorable! :goodvibes:
So funny that you would know him in real life then bump into him online! The world is so much smaller now with the internet!:)

I have replied to the kiss so now I am just waiting to hear back from him. I'm not sure whether he will write to me or just have a chat next time I see him at my daughter's ballet class. At least we now know we are both interested so hopefully we can take the next step...

:gloomy: Feeling sad..... He hasn't contacted me again. It's been over a week since I replied to his kiss and I haven't heard a thing from him yet. I was thinking he is like me and not keen on paying huge amounts of money to buy the RSVP stamps and he was just going to wait until ballet class, but he didn't show up last week. I don't know the circumstances... I mean I guess he is really busy working full-time and sharing care of his two kids so I understand if he couldn't make it to take them to ballet last week. I just really hope he is there this week so we get to chat in person. If not, well I might just have to let it go. I don't like hanging around for someone who makes the first move then does nothing more about it.
Fingers crossed for ballet on tuesday then....

stupid question, but did he know it was *you* on RSVP? I just ask because maybe your photo might not have looked quite like you or something?

I think you are overthinking things a bit too much! And don't worry its something I do ALL the time. Chances are there is a perfectly good reason he wasn't at ballet, and given the prices to contact on that site, I would suggest he is just waiting to see you in person! Why pay to email someone you know? really?
And remember us guys are idiots in general and have no idea what we are doing when it comes to people from other planets, ooops, i mean women! ;)
But I think my gorgeous girl will be taking up ballet shortly!!
Just let things flow - if you meet someone else before you see him, then thats the way it is, if not, say hi and let the good times roll! :D

I work as a photographer. My photos on RSVP are very clear and and of the highest quality. There is no doubt that they are a great likeness. Plus I have known him for nearly a year. There is no way he couldn't know it's me.
Last night I was on RSVP and he came up as being online the same time as me and he didn't send me a message or initiate any chat. So I know for certain now that he has seen my reply, but I really do think he just hasn't purchased the stamps and will wait til tomorrow to talk to me at ballet. As long as he's there of course!

So he wasn't there at ballet today :no:
I guess that means he is too busy or not interested in seeing me.
Either way I am going to forget about it. I am not that hard to contact so I am sure he would find a way if he really wants to get to know me better.
Oh well.....

WOW! Maybe give him half a chance! :P
Hardly think he is avoiding ballet just because you are there! Hehehe Was his daughter there? There is just so many possibilities, and maybe he is a little more reserved than to stalk you down to say hi?
Give it time - and don't get to caught up in the negatives!
Smiles!
Probably best to sit back and not over think it. I learned that this week. The bloke I was seeing didn't phone when he was supposed to, and I couldn't get hold of him, and he didn't turn up when he was supposed to. So, I presumed he'd done a runner and sent him a very unhappy, 'never darken my door again' email. And before he read the email he texted to say sorry he'd been awol but he'd been really sick. Oops. So I'm single again! :rolleyes: People have a lot going on in their lives, or he may just be tongue tied. Don't put your life on hold, but you never know...

Surely he will forgive your email when explained? A funny joke for the Grandkids surely! hahaha

You underestimate the scathing tone I am capable of. I'm British, a mother, an intensive care nurse, a lecturer and 8 years older than him. I'm scary. Poor boy. :laughing: I'm hoping he does calm down, but the problem with internet dating is that there are always plenty more fish in the virtual sea. I mean, if I read him the riot act for not phoning, what might I do if he left the loo seat up...

I'd wait longer OP... I mean, YOU like HIM and you're not making a move... maybe that WAS his move. He could have a real reason for not being at ballet too... who knows?
Just because he's not falling over himself trying to get a date with you doesn't mean he's not interested. He might be shy. I will let someone know I'm into them, and pretty much leave it up to them. Maybe his "kiss" was his way of saying, "Hey, I'm interested," and then putting the ball in your court.

woooooo-hooooooo
He contacted me! He apologised for the delay but said someone else he had previously been e-mailing on RSVP contacted him just after he sent me a kiss and he didn't feel right corresponding with 2 people at once.
Anyway he said he knows who I am, has seen me at ballet and has always liked me but assumed I was married! He said he would have asked me out sooner if he had known I was single.
We chatted for a while this afternoon but both had to go and attend to our kids so we will chat again later.
But it seems he is definitely keen on me.... yay!
Thats great news! Internet dating etiquette is confusing - but it sounds like he's a decent bloke. I have my fingers crossed for you. My only advice - don't chat too much, just arrange to meet up for a coffee or something asap. You never know how it feels til you have them in front of you!
