Internet, Is internet relationships ok? Options

[Tkmsxs]

Theres this guy i met. Name is Paul. I met him through Xanga actually. Turns out he lives SUPER close to my house, should i take a chance and meet him? hes already my boyfriend and there a good chance we could end up not liking eachother afta!
Who knows

[X-Zeifer]

Nope dont do it you could get raped!

[cocoalightning27]

mkae sure that he is really who he is....ask your parents

[X-Zeifer]

Dont ask your parents they'll yell at you for going out with a guy you met on the internet and they'll get mad

[*Programmer*]

awww...thas cute....see thing about internet and real life is one is real one is not......if you meet him your both gonna be nervous as hell....lmao....because you really don't know that much about each other....maybe over the net you do..but it's so ez to lie about shit like that....be careful

[Skyline Drive]

Man that is kind of wierd. His already your boyfriend ? What the eff man.. you should at least meet him before you start a relationship. If you meet him bring someone with you.

[jordanriane]

1.) If you think you two won't hit it off, don't borther. You've never met him before, and you're not really losing anything but someone you talk to, who claims that you're his [only] girlfriend.

2.) If you really do want to meet him, bring a guy friend with, and meet him at a public place, say a coffee shop, an eatery, or a mall. Never go to his house, etc.

3.) Bring a cellphone with, if you can, for precaution.

[Angel_Cece]

hm... its pretty dangerous.

[*Azarel*]

Meet up in a public place.
Don't go alone.
If you do go alone, go with other people.

And to answer the question in your post title, it all depends on you.

[BOAmusics]

well i think it ok,
because some people jsut can't get a real relattionship in real life and the only thing the good at is computer, so that their only hope

in napoleon dynamite, napoleon brother relationship with that girl go prefectly ok.

online realtionship is ok if you actually talk to that person like 2hr everyday on web cam for like 4year or more. and then it save to meet that person.

[swe3ttemptasian]

meet him somewhere w/ a few friends. i think there's a topic like this?

But always go to a public place and w/ friends

[jordanriane]

Napoleon Dynamite was a G rated movie. Of course the interinet meeting was going to go alright.

Real life > Fiction.

[Chii]

NO DO NOT MEET HIM!!!

if he was an honest or at least normal person, you two wouldn't be boyfriend and girlfriend already when you haven't met...he seems like some weirdo...it's like he's controlling you and you've even been face to face yet...

he can't call you his girlfriend just yet or anything like that, it's like he did that so he has your trust...this seems so wrong...who can already be boyfriend and girlfriend but never met...? me might be a freak and guilt you into stuff and i don't know...just don't do it

[*wind&fire*]

what a whole lot of b.s dont meet him...

[FireArrow]

You can if you want.. just dont go anywhere ALONE with him... then you're probably safe... but I wouldn't if i were you

[to-devastate]

I think you shouldn't. Internet is like a scary world; walking in it alone. That guy could be like a 60 year old perv and he could rape you. Better safe than sorry. Good luck

[AngelTears]

If you've been talking to him for a long time and you just think you know he's not some stalker trying to get you maybe you could if you really want..

but maybe take one of your bigger guy friends just to be safe!

But in my own personal opinion, I wouldn't meet him.. it does sound kind of weird.

[eCkO.]

Just to let you guys know. I've been into an internet relationship before. And now it has become long distance. and it is still going ( 3 years and still counting) and I'm 13. I've done this behind my parents back.. please dont do this behind yours.. this will get you into deep shit. What ever these people are saying is ignorant because they dont know what they're talking about. They never been into this big shit. The guy I'm dating is a few years older than me... But still, i never had sex, or had been raped by this fool.

All i have to tell you is to

1.) Ask your parents
2.) Know this guy, take a few months like about 6 months clearance
3.) dont have sex on first blind date rofl.

[DrEaMgUy2K1]

sigh

[apple.]

Paul..over..xanga..i met ppl over xanga..but i wouldnt risk internet relationships..i mean..if u live close to him..you know..

[dahding]

sure.

then when u show up, its a 75 year old guy who ties u down in his basement and wants to do lewd uncatholic things to u.

internet relationships...hah. find someone real.

[EmmalieV]

I hate net relationships there so cyberish (sp?) hehe

btu if he lives close , but meet him at the mall or movies no where thats secluded! he could be forty years old and still lives with his mom for all you know

no sh*t he hasn't raped her, it's a long distance internet relationship, what can he do to her?

wow big deal, 3 years of telling some person over the internet, "i love you how was your day baby?" and all the while that person is probably messing around with other people...i think it's just stupid

[Shattered_Hope]

he's got a point.

[5ayuri]

if ur gonna meet up with him go with a friend or something so your not alone

[crazyuproar]

no. dont go

[Nicolatofu]

I'd be really careful. Over the internet, you can be whoever you want... Just don't go anywhere with him privately until you've seen each other more and established a trusting relationship. He may try to take advantage of you..

[kyuubi319]

get a few friends to go with you and tell him to bring a few friends. ^^
that way, everyone can keep their virginity (:

[WhiteLotus*]

Man that is kind of wierd. His already your boyfriend ? What the eff man.. you should at least meet him before you start a relationship. If you meet him bring someone with you.

Agreed.

[ch33sylici0us]

go to see him with a group of friends - preferably some guys included. This way you'll have some backup incase he does turn out to be a looney.

[*mishyerr*]

You know, there are all those things about people being like 50 year old men trying to rape little girls thru the internet

And than there are the exceptions, like most the people here on Createblog.

Seriously, if you really want to meet him, go with a big group of friends. And internet relationships are like flings, they die pretty fast. It's hard to really get to know someone over the internet... People usually have split personalities from their real, people personality and their typing personality.

[KELLYYY]

you'll never know, it might be a 60 year old woman trying to rape you.


just meet up at a place where there's a lot of people. don't meet each other where both of you are alone. it's dangerous.

[justalanna]

It's not a good idea. You have no idea if this person is really who he says he is. It's so easy to lie and make things up on the internet. I wouldn't meet him or anything like that, but that's just my opinion.

[eCkO.]

no sh*t he hasn't raped her, it's a long distance internet relationship, what can he do to her?

wow big deal, 3 years of telling some person over the internet, "i love you how was your day baby?" and all the while that person is probably messing around with other people...i think it's just stupid

LOL. He came to my house every weekend. WHat do you think? He is a good guy. Dont judge one by first impression.. first impression always decieves bitch. You think it's stupid cause you dont have the same feelings <3

[*wind&fire*]

bring mace and a machine gun

[toodlepops.]

If you decide to meet him, don't go alone.
Personally, I wouldn't go coz it's really dangerous.

[Teesa]

personally, I do not think it is a good idea. There are too many factors that could go wrong. Even if you think you know the person pretty well, the relationship is based on the internet, so there is no way of knowing the complete truth about that person.

[*mzkandi*]

he's your boyfriend already and you haven't even met him.....ok a lil to weird for me so i am leaving now

Thats exactly true
Yeah best to be safe then sorry, make sure you meet him the day in a public place. You never know he could be some 60 year old biker guy. Be careful.

LOL

[XaZnX07]

i went out with a girl be4 we met she lived close to me too we met on xanga and i found out that shes cousin in law with a guy at my school and so i met her at a school football game and our relationship lasted bout 2 months h
hmmmmmmmmmmm so go for it why not just be safe

.:tony:.

[yellowgurl]

he could be just pretending and maybe its a 30 yr old man behind the screen.. waiting for someone innocent to go *meet him* i hope u didnt give out any PERSONAL info.. maybe if u want you can call him but dont give out ur phone number.. u never know.. and if u can listen carefully.. i suggest u not to .. wht goes on the computer.. stays on the computer

[wincyyellow]

only if you thuink he really loves you and you love him...

[twelveislands]

If I met someone on the internet I'd find it weird taking my friends coz well.. it's just weird

As long as you meet in a public place with loads of people around and always stay in a public kind of place then you should be fine. If you do decide to meet him.

[mickybeans]

thats pretty dangerous. if he lives super close to you, do you know anyone that goes to his school or anyone that you know that could possibly know him? maybe you should ask around to see if anyone knows him because it could be extremely dangerous to just come outta nowhere and meet with him because it could just be one of those "online posers". be careful and if you really want to meet him in person, go with a few friends.

[pinayprincess]

thats the most dumbest thing ive ever heard of ... pshh people need a life if they do that kind of sh*t... thats just retarted -- i mean if you mean gf/bf things... if its just for being friends, sure.. but gf/bf things, then thats whole diff. story.....

[AsianUniQ]

Whats wrong with meeting someone over the internet who happens to live in your neighborhood? You could have met him in the mall. It wouldnt make any difference as long as he's not from across the country. He have xanga. So you can read his entries. There is nothing he could lie about when talking on AIM. Its there on his xanga. So if you so desperately want to meet him. Go with a group of freinds. Perhaps to the mall and go shoppping together, get to know him better. That sounds like a safe idea right?

[Azn_Angel13]

u nvr know if that guy is a messed up freak sitting on the computer thinking about gurls and looking at porn! lolz

[Litt0_TeeZy]

i would say no...it's not safe....

[starlette]

if you have seen him on web cam, I could see meeting him, but only if you have a lot lot lot of people with you. There are a lot of sickos out there. I have a friend I met thru the internet and I have known him for 6 years now, he wasnt a freak, but he could have been. just please be careful.

[i can break]

Theres this guy i met. Name is Paul. I met him through Xanga actually. Turns out he lives SUPER close to my house, should i take a chance and meet him? hes already my boyfriend and  there a good chance we could end up not liking eachother afta! 
Who knows

Online relationships can be very risky; that's why I don't believe in them. If you are willing to take the risk; please don't let me hear about a teenage girl getting kidnapped and raped on the news.

[_sarcastic_]

well only if you know that he's not lying, and you've webcam or seen his picture before or talked to him on the phone. if you really want to meet up with him bring an adult along.

i'm in a long distance, not really internet relationship right now. i've seen my bf, he's a family friend. so mine's a completely different story.

but good luck

[*XLilAznGrl592X*]

like most ppl said.. dont go or maybe in a publiv place with a whole bunch or ppl... i actualy know someone who married the person he met online they worked out fine... but who knows? some of my friends relationships work and some dont even though we r eleven hehehe

[vz_danielle]

no don't.
its really dangerous,
you don't even know him.
and u know what?
u may be rape.

[icy_angelx]

You should meet him....But just incase don't wear anything soooo fancy wear something casual....

[blah122986]

i say since u live really close...u should be able to meet up ..just bring some people along...andthen see how dat goes...

[cHuNsAbAbIe012]

it can be dangerous but pple dont usually lie. my friend met a lot of pple on the internet. even her boyfriend but they were all everything they said they were. n the webcam is a good idea

[HoodieObsessed]

awww...thas cute....see thing about internet and real life is one is real one is not......if you meet him your both gonna be nervous as hell....lmao....because you really don't know that much about each other....maybe over the net you do..but it's so ez to lie about shit like that....be careful

ya, I agree. I had a "bf" over the net, and I don't doubt he is who he said he was, but I realized that I didn't even really like him for what he said he was, he was jsut the first guy tha'ts ever had any interest in me anyway, you can meet if you want but BRING FREINDS and meet in a public place
