So this girl I havent met yet...

Oh, and the noun is "invitation", the verb is "invite".

You invite someone by sending them an invitation.

/pedant
 
she's inviting you to a party with all her friends, so i wouldn't think too much into it. Sounds like just a way to meet you surrounded by people she knows and just in case you turn out to be a weirdo, she'll just go to her friends and you head home alone. If she is really interested, she would meet up on a date, not a half-date.
 
Right, well if you're using a dating website you're probably not getting any on a regular basis. Annnnnnnnnnd you wont unless you put yourself out there.

Well 5 months ago I was engaged with 3 years of being in a relationship, and most of my social activities involve clubbing (of the non-cheesy variety) which I have given up on meeting women through.

I've had long-term things borne of the internet in the past, and the dating website was more a means to meet more people.

But never mind, this thread is going off topic as my original point was that I thought it odd to invite a stranger to a weekend away type deal, not to get advice on whether or how to 'hit that' :p

Plus it killed some time at the end of a work day, hehe
 
OP - go with a mate so that if you crash and burn you can at least go and make a night of it.

Go to Po na na if it's still there, quality place!

But as for creeping up on her in Bath and going "hi, I'm from the internet" for her to go "oh, hi, who the f are you" - your risk.

As for "should you hit it", the rule is obviously - if it moves, **** it. If it doesn't move, **** it 'til it does.
 
If she works in London and so do you, ask to meet up after work at some point beforehand for a drink, to get to know her a bit and then you can explain why you can't actually go...that or you can realise that you want to go and will have to blow off (not literally :p) your friends.
 
The problem is that:

a) I am REALLY skint at the moment, especially with Xmas approaching. As a result, I have given up on the dating thing til next year, but I had already made all this contact with her beforehand.
b) I'd be spending a weekend with her and all her friends, I'd feel reeeeally out of place in that sort of a situation.
c) I doubt it would work between us as she is a veggie and I am not.

*yawn*

No offence but some of your threads do tend to follow a pattern:

Dating site
Interest in hot girl
Pic of hot girl
Lame reasons why it didn't/wont' work out
Yadda yadda yadda

It's almost constitutes a LOOK AT ME thread. Being able to meet all these decent looking girls (and I use the word 'meet' quite loosely!) but, ya know: always a bit too busy/skint/lame.

And when I say lame I don't mean it as a massive insult, but the reasons you've given for not going to meet her are exactly that.

My advice: live a little. Get yourself up there, have a laugh and get yourself back home. What's there to lose.
