I am doing the myspace thing, maybe to meet somebody. However, when it comes down to going out with that person, it scares the **** out of me? On one hand, this maybe a great opportunity for a relationship of some sort, on the other hand, it may be, well, awful. I say I am lonely and want to meet someone, but my nerves have gotten the best of me. What to do?

I am a guy who has dated about 10 women from the internet. It's my favorite way to meet them because I can actually find someone who shares my interests, rather than walking up to random women and finding out we're not alike. So, don't be afraid of dating someone from the internet and always be safe. Don't give out your home phone number and when you two do meet, always do it in a public place when it's light out.
When I first started internet dating I got nervous when meeting someone new. The key is to just push through it and remain calm. You can force yourself to do amazing things, so force yourself to be talkative. Another thing you can always do is just come right out and tell the guy you're nervous. It won't be offensive. For instance, if a woman told me she was nervous about meeting me it would actually make me feel better.
Also, when you're on the actual date don't turn it into a job interview. Instead, focus on fun conversation topics rather than family, work, school, etc. Just have fun and enjoy the conversation. Think of how you communicate with your best friend and mirror that on your date and you'll do well. The one thing that makes me not see a woman again after a date is because they're boring as hell. So, don't be boring, be funny :)

I have met several nice men over the Internet and had a wonderful time with them. We e-mailed for some time before the actual meeting and when that took place, it was always in a public place of my choice. If you e-mail long enough you can pick up on the kind of person he/she is and pay close attention to all mails. I use to print them out so I had something to compare to later. Good luck and have save and clean fun.

If you do choose to meet him..go to dinner or someplace where there are lots of people. drive you own cars or booth of you take public transportation, also have enough money to pay for yourself and call a cab. If you have a cell phone, call a best friend and tell her everything you know about him b4 you meet and then after initial hellos go to the restroom and give her the description. This will help if he turn out to be crazy..lol Have a great date

I am engaged to be married with a woman I met via the internet. It DOES work. It doesn't work for everybody, but it does work. Arrange to meet in a public place, be sure to get to know them as much as possible and when you do meet them, have a friend with you just in case he turns out to be not-so-nice. Ideally, talk to them on the phone first to get a better feel of what they are like.

You have received some good advice. You have no idea if the guy is who he says he is, is the age he says he is, or what his plans are. Do not meet him alone. Ask him to come to your house while your parents are at home or have him meet you with you friends in attendance. There are other ways of meeting boys than on line. Try them!

classic case. you probally like the fact that seeing or meeting this person may not actually happens but then what if it does and you really like them you may also worry that you cant do the things other couples do so you may be wondering if it will last or will it be just a fling the truth is that noone knows just go into it with and open mind and dont expect anything

It's ok to go out. But everything has good & bad so. If u had chat with the guy long enough & both got to know each other well & feel comfortable with each other, then is the best time to meet up.
Other side, why waste time? so if u feel bored then just follow your heart with caution.

Before meeting him chat with him online and on the phone but be very careful because there are alot of people online that lie in every way you can imagine.On the other hand there are also alot of people that are sincere.Just take your time and be careful.
