Yes that wouldn't be a good.
| ||
|
No, I wouldn't take it personally
| ||
|
Naw I wouldn't take it personally maybe they just didn't have time. But it just depends on if there had been discussion about meeting and how much interaction there was..Have a great day hun..
| ||
|
Of course not! There are a million reasons why, I know when I travel for business I rarely have time for anything else.

no especially like you said your not attracted to them anyway
| ||

This will be interesting to see how the male's answers differ from the females'! I think I would be a bit put out!, It would be nice to put a proper face to a name even if just for a coffee. Wouldn't matter if I was attracted to him or not, if we had been chatting a while, I would like to be offered the option!

No, absolutely not

Naw I wouldn't take it personally maybe they just didn't have time. But it just depends on if there had been discussion about meeting and how much interaction there was..Have a great day hun.. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

No, I would not.
| ||
|
Yes, I would. If no time or circumstance, I think an explanation would be nice. There really is no obligation, but I think it is a nice thing to do. Happened to me. I was a little insulted. Also, if they feel there will be no hook up they may have no interest in meeting.
| ||
|
Only if we had talked about getting together in the past. Otherwise, it makes no real difference to me. Just because I am not attracted to them doesn't mean that they aren't, so would prefer not to have to deal with that in person. If it was a female friend, I would probably be more willing to have met, but still wouldn't be offended if they didn't let me know.

While I wouldn't take it as a personal insult there would definitely be a part of me that would feel disappointed .... even though I didn't know about it until afterwards. I would bring it up in conversation later .... just to make sure it wasn't personal, if that makes sense. Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

No I wouldnt take it personally. I think there are some people I interact with on here that I am friendly with but I know we have little in common....

Nah. There's just too much of a barrier between the cyber world and the real world. Those worlds must never intermingle! If people don't want to cross that line, I totally understand. I'm not the same person offline as I am online. I'm sure the other person is too. And, to me at least, it seems like too much of a hassle to "get into character" for just a cup of coffee. I put a lot of effort into this version of myself, I'm not sure I really relish the idea of letting someone peek behind the curtain. I'm here to escape the real world, not invite people into the real-world me. It would be analogous to having my coworkers see me first thing in the morning before I've done myself up with my hair wrap still on. While it's not something I'm ashamed of, they're not privy to that part of my life, and their presence in it would be an intrusion. Sure, I would have done the obligatory "you should have told me, we could have gotten a donut or something." But I'd only be saying that knowing I have the safety of two states currently between us.

Och, aye, ah would take it personally, for about 5secs, then ah'd remember that ah've done the same thing so many times, and then ah'd gi'e masel a boot in the arse for bein an eejit..........

unless the meeting was preplanned, i would not think much of it...i don't know why the person is vising my area, such as his/her business, or visiting the families or what ever...i would assume they have already something to do in this area, so meeting me is not their main concern...we are just an online acquaintance, so it is not biggy for me...
| ||
|
Pretty much, yes, I would at least find it strange. I think of those I routinely interact with as friends, so missing a chance to interact in person as an opportunity lost.

To be honest, if it wasn't for fb I wouldn't have found out about a recent school reunion. I would have been gutted if I didn't go...Okay, I did drop a hint

No, I woudn't take it personally, on the assumption that they had OTHER reasons to visit my area, and that their schedule was "otherwise occupied". Check out my profile or and become a "watcher" of my blog FMAOPLS,to learn more about me, and for intelligent, lively, smartassy and fun discussion, with a little irreverence thrown in. "Like" or comment on my photos, and I promise I'll add more. Thanks.

I would think it a bit odd that the person didn't at least tell me they would be in the area, even if it was followed by "but I may not have time to meet" if time was an issue. Otherwise I would think it very strange to not meet if for no other reason than curiosity! I guess that means yeah...I would take it kinda personal like. lol

I wouldn't take it personally. On online friend does not necessarily translate into a real world friend, especially since you said "in a general friendly way". To me that doesn't imply a really close connection. That being said a few years ago there was a blogger who lived in Chicago and was in Austin for work and we each drove to Waco on the spur of the moment to meet, about 2 hours one way for both of us. We agreed that there was not going to be any sex. We spent several hours at a restaurant thoroughly enjoyed each others company. Now I thought about you as I drove through OKC earlier this year, does that count?

If we had developed a close online relationship and we had discussed how nice it would be to see each other in person I would be hurt if he was visiting very near me (no more than 1/2 hour- 45 minutes away) and did not at least tell me. I understand sometimes, especially if he was here on business, or family, it would be difficult to find time. But, if you can only steal a few minutes, just to make that physical connection (not necessarily sex), it’s worth it. Not telling me would definitely change my feelings toward him and our supposed friendship. I would think a lot of what he had said was not really sincere.

Those that are of substance will make the time and effort. Those not, will make an excuse. I have always maintained that the MAJORITY (not all) you come across on the old Internet are NOT true friends at all. At best they are mere acquaintances. So please remember this as I give my two cents. I tend to agree with Maybe Just that sometimes it's not possible to meet BUT a quick note shows that value of the person. You either value the person or not. I also agree with Positively and Papis that some may just want a quick romp and not want to put any effort into anything. So that's why I agree with them also. I also applaud them for having 'Standards'.... In saying this, then I have to disagree with both Jay and Miss Kissin. While I too, in the past travelled for business both alone and with colleagues/boss. When travelling alone, there is ALWAYS time to grab a quick cuppa or drink and have a chat. No excuses. ESPECIALLY IF you are single. When travelling with others, I'm sure most would not deny you a night out or quick meet with a 'friend' regardless of your status. So would I personally be offended. Probably not,(see first paragraph) BUT I know my next contact with them would certainly be a bit 'different' if you know what I mean.....

No, I would not take it personally. There are too many unknown factors and it's not fair to either person to read it into the why's.
