Anyone ever sent pics online to a friend?

I met this guy online, seen him on webcam so I know hes real lol and after a few weeks he saw me on cam and has a few pics of me. The thing is hes become really obsessed, not because im nice but cause he sounds desperate and ive been nice to him talking to him about his depression etc. He wants to meet up as he lives 30 mins away but i keep saying not yet but recently he said 'Id love to make a website of you'. Im scared that hes gonna put my pictures all over the internet:frown: I don't want anyone I know to see them but there no way of stopping him is there? He might not do it but what do u think? When im not online for days he sends me emails etc and if I block him all of a sudden it might make him more likely to do something stupid like create a website.

You could have the website shut down after it opens, since the guy doesn't have ownership of your photos, but I don't think you can really do too much beforehand. Your best bet is to just block him and hope for the best. Otherwise, you're just delaying the inevitable, and might even make him more obsessed with you.

But chances are his demands will grow more extreme, and at some point you'll have to give up anyway. So why go through all that agony when you can end it now? If he puts up your pictures, he puts up your pictures.

Why don't you want anyone to see the pics? Are they compromising, at all?

If they're not, I'd just sever ties with him - and then, if he does make a website, the chances that your mates will find the pics seem fairly low to me anyway. If they are compromising... then... definitely don't meet up with him, but you'll have to be careful talking to him on MSN. Maybe just try and slowly become more distant.

Put more time between your replies on MSN (or Yahoo, whatever) don't say hi to him as much, let conversations die, and pretend you've lost your webcam.

That sort of thing.
