How can you tell?
How can you tell if your prospective IE is just as great in real life as they seem in their chat? I'm loving talking online, and I really hope he lives up to my expectations...How can I certify my gut feelings!

Make use of video, such a great way to see beyond a photo and we all know that you can easily invest a lot of time without knowing if you click. Seeing your potential lover move and talk can help you know 😊 x

In my personal experience, you cannot, hence why I do not do all the waffle before and meet as soon as possible.
I also do not (in 99.99999%) of cases make up my mind about about a person in a few minutes however I have found that many men (and from the letters women too) will make assumptions from a photo) will.
Many times I have chatted well, (with a man) made each other laugh, many things in common, they see my photo and, no thanks.
Expect rejection, anything else a positive.

Guess what? You can't! In fact there is a phenomenon that too much chat starts a process where you manufacture a picture that becomes more fixed the longer you go on then explodes like a Zeppelin when you finally meet.
Chat just enough to get some basics sorted then quit until you meet. That way the let down is more like a parachute than a dive bomb. Preserve the mystery!

Maybe move onto Kik exchange Live Photo’s and plan to need to coffee or a drink... I never plan/want anything more first meet.. plus if he’s not your type you’ve not wasted to much time and if sparks happen then all the better for second date.... 😉
Go with your gut hun it’s always right..

Well you can’t! Not straight away anyway and certainly not until you meet in person. A telephone conversation can be interesting and just hearing their voice can help to gauge personality.

unfortunately .... you can't until you do meet and find out whether the pedestal you have put someone on is justified..
Given the amount of time before we are allowed out keeping that sense of perspective is going to be very tricky .
Try and get a sense of things from your chat , and if it seems to be going well then thats great , but you will just have to cross your fingers till you eventually clap eyes on him and assess that height / weight / hair / age matrix !
