When I clicked reply, I was initially going to say that the issue is not even that you’ve only been corresponding for a week and a half and if that was all there was I would say go for it. I met my husband 12 years ago on match.com and we’ve been happily married ever cents. The huge red flag is not that he’s asking to meet so quickly, it’s that he doesn’t have any photos. Ask him why. This is not an inappropriate question. Judging by what he tells you will judge you on whether or not he is a decent normal person.
