Hi Ellie,

It’s perfectly natural to feel anxiety when you are about to meet someone from a dating app that you have been talking to. Many feel this anxiety. Oftentimes, it goes away once you have met each other.

The most anxious part is the anticipation. As long as your physical appearance and personality is consistent with the person that you have presented yourself to be on the dating app, the nerves subside shortly after meeting in person.

Your confusion with the possibility on going out on more dates with this person while they are still online dating is understandable. However, don’t forget that online dating is often used by many to figure out who they have the most compatibility with.

Dating more than one person while trying to determine this is actually a good thing. You should do the same. You have a better chance at meeting your best match when you go out on dates with a manageable number of people.

When you meet the one that you truly believe is the most compatible with you, if the feeling is mutual, the both of you normally come to an agreement to solely go out on dates with each other.
