I want to know who all does this...
I hate to go out by myself and everyone is in college... so I have a tendency to look for people around my area... I found this one girl, and we seem to have a lot in common... she lives like 15 minutes away from me... i feel like a loser when people ask where we meet and stuff... |

Aww, don't! I don't think there's anything to be ashamed about. I mean, meeting people online is "the new thing" I guess, although I'm not one to say you're following the crowd. Still, it's normal in our society today. It would be just as if you met someone in person...sometimes it's better to meet them online first because you get attracted to their personality opposed to looks, which might end up as a bad thing. I wish some of the people I met online lived closer...that would be great.
 Anyways...yeah...I hope I made sense.

Aww...well, forget them.
Just don't think about them...their opinions don't matter...they're close-minded, ignorant people.  Wish granted; topic moved |

Don't be ashamed, I know a lot of people who have met online and are very happy. It's not anything to be ashamed of. My friend met her boyfriend online..so that turned out okay.
The best of luck to you. |

QUOTE(Kathleen @ Apr 30 2004, 10:09 AM) sometimes it's better to meet them online first because you get attracted to their personality opposed to looks, which might end up as a bad thing. Totally agree with that. Since you can't see them at first, the only thing left is their personality. So it's actually a good thing. QUOTE feel like a loser when people ask where we meet and stuff... I know how that feels. When people asked how I met my BF and I told them online, they start looking at you all funny. And to answer your question, yes I have met up with the people I meet online. Since online is one place you can just spill your guts out, your online friends know more about you than your school friends so it's great to be with people who really really know you. |

 im a xanga whore...and how! Group: Member Posts: 139 Joined: Feb 2004 Member No: 3,028 |
i met my ex online, but i mean, we actually got toghether outside the internet, but i guess when people say they met online, its like strictly an online relationship, this guys in new york and shes (supposedly) in california, and wooo shes hot right??... online relationships DONT count! sorta... well, its unless you got definite proof, like maybe you two get toghether and take a walk in the park toghether.

I met a few of my friends online IRL at anime conventions and I also met one of my good friends from an aviation forum in Vegas. But of course I am cautious when meeting people online IRL.

No matter how convincing it seems, I just can't trust the internet. Be cautious....

I've never trusted much people online lol.. I lied alot lol saying i was living in a whole different country lol or something like that... But for some I tell the truth.. because I do gain some trust in them and such.. actually, from this site, I've actually trusted some people on here. It's becuase they post their thoughts and opinions and they prove that they are who they areb(most of the time). I mean, I actually went through and called Jackie (foolish heart)! hehes It was so awesome (sshh, she's my secret lover! lolol) and I mean, i never trusted anyone before enough to call them. I usually give out fake numbers if they ever asked, that, or I never gave them a number at all.
I rarely trust anyone ont he internet.. And if I do ever meet anyone offline, I would definitely bring a friend (probably 2 if I could). You never know what could happen...

Go for it. If you're scared to meet her, bring a friend or something. Or meet in a private place. Just be careful and remember, it's always hard to know what's behind the computer screen (if that makes sense...
 ).Good luck! Bye! |
