i did a post earlier about whether i should meet this guy or not. I am getting to know him very well and quite like him. I asked if he would ever meet up with me and he said 'probs, I feel nervous whenever i think about it' i'm confused cos i don't really know what this means, can anyone help me out???


Maybe he thinks your not going to be how you act online?
or you wont like him when you meet up

maybe you both really need each other because of this, meet up as friends and maybe take friends with you to carm each other down :smile: if you live in same city maybe each other drop hints were you will be and you could just "bump" in to each other

he doesn't live too far away, he has met sum1 from the net before and he keeps dropping hints that he wants to see me but i don't know whether i should take it seriously. i think we can give each other confidence but i don't like the idea of draggin a m8 along cos i just want to get to know him

Hmmm internet relationships are notoriously slightly dodgy. I'm not saying this is definately a bad idea but just that you should be incredibly careful. :smile:

Firstly, just how much do you know about this guy? Do you know other people who have met him in real life? Are you sure that what he is telling you actually resembles reality? Of course some people are genuinely shy and find the internet as a great tool to meet people but it cannot be ignored that a lot of weirdos are atracted to the internet too because of the anonymity it provides.

If you are going to meet this guy, regardless of whether you know that all the things he has been telling you check out, make sure that you do not go alone. I know you might feel that dragging a friend along may cramp your style but it's just so important that you have someone there. Also try to avoid giving out personal information (i.e your address) and try meeting in a public place. This might all sound a bit OTT but it's better to be safe than sorry plus it might be fun to meet in a social situation initially as it will help remove some of the nerves of being one-on-one initially:biggrin: .

i have done it before and so has he but i don't know how it went. He's been on web cam so i know he isnt some pervert lol and he has seen me on web cam as well. I should take a friend with me for safety and so should he i guess there's no harm in that i'm just scared that he might like my friend more than me sounds stupid i know but i get paranoid about things like that
I went out with someone I met on the internet once. Lets just say she looked better on webcam.

it isn't always about the looks, it's the personality that's important

:biggrin: Always a danger I guess!

And don't worry about him liking your friend better. He wants to meet you and if he's seen you on webcam he must be attracted to you :smile: . Alternatively, take an ugly friend! issue solved :wink:

Don't worry, there's no images. Well except for the ads, which are safe too, they're advertising domain names.
