Well we're only just still getting to know each other so I'm keeping my options open haha. I wouldn't date more than one woman at once or anything, but since we're not dating yet I'm just not ruling out the possibility I'll meet someone else in the mean time.

Lol sometimes there is a spark on first encounter (yes even over messages or skype etc). Hard to explain.

But guessing by your response there isn't something there that makes you want to hold out until you get to know them better.

It's more I get the sense they're not really that interested so don't wanna waste 2 months waiting for nothing to happen.

Lol, the old saying that a woman do not notice a man until he has someone else I believe is always true.  I told my Son this when he went off to college.  He liked this girl but she was not giving him the time of day.  I told him you are never suppose to hold out for a girl.  State your claim and then move on.  He did that, started to see another girl and the one he liked got jealous.  They had a conversation and he told her that you turned me down so what did you expect me to do.  Its like women do not really accept you as dating material unless you have someone else.

I know exactly how you feel with being in love with your solitude.  Actually you will find that there are a lot of woman who are at that same place as well.  Try changing up your Tinder profile to highlight that and see what happens.  There are a lot of women who do not want needy men and it seems you do not want a needy woman.  Instead you want someone who has their space and you have yours and you both have common interest to do things together.  Stating those things in your profile I believe will net you someone who is in the same place as you.

I would say its definitely correct behavior.  Never hold out on a maybe and instead continue to pursue what you are looking for. Your maybe could find someone else and be like "Oh, well I found someone else sorry" and you would feel like a fool for waiting. If the maybe comes back and you are still available great.  If not then you at least have a decision, keep going with what you have now or go with the maybe.  I have faced way to many maybe and then that person just moves on without ever giving me a shot.

Actually this happen with my son where the girl stated she was doing her masters and did not want to commit to any relationship at the moment.  I told him to move on but still be cool and do not hold any grudges, she is just not in the same place where you are at.  She end up leaving the college and going back home which was far away.  Turns out after about 6 months, she came back to the same city and sought him out.  They are not dating but during that time when she was gone he was dating a few other girls which got back to her and she felt she needed to come back and stake her claim.  

Thank you.

This was basically how I thought of it, waiting two months on a "maybe" and not keeping my options open in the mean time seemed really limiting and like it could waste a lot of my time. Especially as I've just matched with this other girl. Man I'm so damn nervous even when messaging women, just holding a conversation feels like juggling while walking a tightrope, blind-folded haha.

Never wait for a maybe. A maybe is more than likely a no. Maybes are too polite to say no.

On the surface online dating appears to be a good way for introverted males to date but it has a very low response rate and makes it more frustrating than taking the risk on asking women out in real life interactions. 

Online dating apps are a waste of time and it gets boring very fast. I delete apps after 2 weeks and come back months later to try again for the same predictable results of no matches and no messages. Paying for upgrades are only a waste of money and will not improve things.

I have bombed out on OKCupid and Plenty Of Fish. I have not bothered with Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, etc but I expect no matches and more time wasted. 

Okay so it was a no-go with the girl on Coffee Meet Bagel, she stopped responding and our match timed out, but I matched with another girl on Bumble and I asked her out and she said yes!

Now, that doesn't mean it will happen as I've been ghosted after receiving a "yes" before, but we seem to be vibing really well so i hope this time I get as far as an actual date. She's really cute and attractively quirky.

nice, good luck man
