I'm about to arrange a rendezvous with a woman I've dreamed of meeting. The question is, how much time do you think would be optimum? An hour seems to short, and an overnight seems too long (probably best when rapport has been established).

I was thinking at least 2 hours. Money is not an issue really, just the timing for a first meeting.

Thanks

I'd suggest two. I did that with the last PSE I saw and like yourself, I was quite "taken" by her before our meeting. It was a good move on my part and she was a living doll!

If money is not the issue, I would definitely go for two hours.  Three may be a bit much if you have never seen her before and one hour is not enough.

Two hours is my minimum, and for me, 4 hours is ideal... An hour to get to know each other, and then plenty of time for fun and two or three pops.

If an hour is too short and overnight might be too long.....you answered your own question. 3 hours is a stretch unless you like to cuddle and nibble after.

If money isn't the issue, then I suggest 4 hours with at least one of those hours being conversation over dinner.  I think you'll both enjoy the experience more if you establish rapport and get comfortable with each other over a meal and maybe some wine.  

That's my $.02.
