    So I met a guy on an internet dating site. We sent each other a few short e-mails back and forth. He asked me if I wanted to meet up some time. I said that I didn't know alot about him (basic information). So I asked him/ he asked me some questions- we exchanged photos.. and we were still in contact- even after he saw my pic!

    I haven't heard from him since Sunday.
    Should I take it as- hes not interested or that hes waiting for me to make a move?

    With the current weather there is a good chance he may not be able to reply - I've been without internet access at home since last Saturday and it is wrecking my head - so I wouldn't read too much into it in that regard.
    If you feel you want to make a move due to the lapse in communication then do an email and base it around what is going on - loads of people have lost internet, phone, tv services, electrics, water etc. there are tales of woe for commutes and cancelled services, college and so on and so forth - so you could check in with him to see if he is affected much by everything that is going on.

    Best of luck with it

    my advise (from experience) is threat the internet no different than if you had met in real life, if you want to persue do, if you prefer to be persued by a guy (much more advisable) sit on your hands and see if he repsonds. If it is due to weather he will be in touch as soon as he is online. If he hasnt got intouch because he has lost interest emailing him is not going to make him change his mind, its just going to make you feel bad.

    When you are on line dating try not to get invested before you meet, its all a fantasy until you actually meet the guy. Most guys like to chase so dont chase him or he will looose interest.
