If a man asks, via e-mail, a woman out on a date knowing full well that she read the e-mail as soon as he sent it, if he is rejected 100 minutes later via e-mail then does he read into this A) She hesitated, therefore she must have liked him a little bit and pondered the matter for a while out of respect before rejecting him or B) She deliberately delayed her response because in her world she had other more important matters to attend to.So, the question is, ladies and gents, if a woman does not fancy a guy, should she tell him right away or keep him dangling on a string before rejecting him. Votes for 'A'? Votes for 'B'? Thanks so much for your input! Ultimately a rejection is a rejection of course, but I'm just interested on the various opinions out there... Thanks again!

Why did you ask her out via email? Is this an on-line dating site, do you not have her phone number?
If you have her phone number it is always more appropriate to actually call her and ask her....that way you can sense her rejection more acurately, as it could be that she already had something planned for that date, and then you could suggest another time.
Hope this helped you.

Tell him right away, god, why would you string someone along?
And he might read into it or he might not care, depends on the guy and if he actually liked the girl or if he was just interested in a casual date....
