I had a bad experience...I spoke to this guy, who I do believe to be an engineer, he loved his profession and said his whole life it was what he wanted to do etc, anyway spoke to him for about 4 weeks by email before we met. We subsequently then went on 2 dates where we met in a public place both times. Long story short, by date 3 he wanted to pick me up at my home and have me ride in his car with him somewhere. I told him I was still uncomfortable with this, as I felt it was pretty soon in the relationship and wanted to meet him somewhere public again. To him it was enough to break it off. He was very upset with me saying I didnt trust him, we had been together for a long time, he had been totally honest with me, spoke for weeks, etc even told me I had a protective shell that I needed to get over, etc. and was quite upset with me even saying something about how I should have let him know my expectations up front. I was really surprised by his reaction, to this day, I still feel it wasnt unreasonable of me to not want to get in his car after just 2 dates, even after talking for several weeks, he felt I was being really unreasonable about it too. I dont know if it was his engineer mentality or anything but just thought I would include my comment here. He had said he hadnt dated in many years but all of his friends and family were waiting to meet me too, is this normal after 2 dates and about 6 weeks or so of talking online, even only had 1 phone call, all the rest email.
