Have you ever met anyone you met online in real life?

The thought is making me feel ill

I find that if you get to know them first, even if it is online, it helps to aleviate the awkwardness of the situation.

bloomin hell, right loada weird girls on the internet !!! i used ICQ, no longer thank god !!

hahaha i bet she was one of those viking welsh ladies who look like men, did ya ever see a pic of her?

if a sexy girl did that, i woulnd't have minded but this one was a bit chunky and fat, and she had a really rough manchester accent, also i think she had asthma

Well, when I met someone online we arranged to go and play footy together...so it was kind of impossible to talk anyway! I think I must be the only person here who actually had a good experience...!

heheh when i get nervous /shy my hearing becomes shit and i have to ask people to repeat themselves 3/4 times, it's quite embarrassing

Well that is why you get to know the perso before hand, probe about any problems they have and their accent, things like that.

It wasn't her accent, just what I like to refer to as "a lazy mouth".

Heh. I wasn't shy, I just didn't like the girl! Her voice annoyed me, a lot. It's amazing how people can come across as being so articulate in text, but when they speak... they're not.

Do you mean like "awrih? havin a fag, innit" kind of thing?

oh how I hate that common tongue with a loathing, I just want to gag them and take them to forced elequetion (sp) lessons.

It's probably because most of us are quite young and just went to meet someone for the sake of it. I had an okay time! Just I got in trouble for it.

You would love Birmingham mate.

i hate it when people use colloquial terms and popular phrases,


i never understand the peculiar lexicon of it all lol


i enunciate my t's perfectly all the time - people take the piss out of that heh

haha im off to Birmingham in sept

Well I met this guy when I was 15, he was a bit older....it's quite funny the way things have worked out though - we sometimes go clubbing together now - I consider him one of my best friends. I think it's only worth meeting up with someone u meet online if you really feel like you want to get to know them better...I would def never meet anyone just for the sake out of it - think thats when it could become a bad experience.

Me however, I am both articulate in text and speech and have actually been called posh. I prefer the term well spoken myself

That's the one!

Same here.. I'd be happy to meet someone from online again if I knew them fairly well as it is and liked them, but I'd never meet a random. That's just asking for trouble!
