Ok, a guy friend of mine asked me out last night. He says he isn't joking, and he isn't the joking type, but we've only been talking on yahoo. he's never seen me before, but i told him all sorts of stuff about my appearance - including the assets. I'm scared he's trying to play a joke on me, but he swears he isn't joking at all. He says he's all serious, and I don't really remember him lying to me before -- he even broke up with his gf because of what he says is for a different reason, trouble and relationship problems. He was really sad and depressed when he had to break up with his other gf when i first met him cuz he moved to a different skool and he'd never see her again, but he's never seen me. He even used my own line against me when i told him he's never seen me before after he asked me out : appearence doesn't count as aquaintance. I do like him, he's really sweet, but i need some answers, PLEASE!!!

Relax. What are you afraid of? What's the worst thing that could happen?
It might be great and then you'll have a boyfriend who is already a friend. That's a good place to start a relationship.
If it doesn't work out, you may lose him as a friend, but maybe not.

Be a bit carefull here because you don't know for sure that you can trust him. I can scare you now with true stories about internetkillers and very 'charming' internet rapists, but I won't. Just use some common sense.
If you make a date with him, go to a public place and make sure he does not have your adress, and that you are not somewhere alone with him (like in his or your car!).
If you have met him a few times i't is just like with other new people you have just met. See how you feel around him.
Take it slowly from there.
Internet can create illusions!
But then again, I also know people who have a relationship together now after meeting each other through the net.
be carefull, and do enjoy yourself!

Looking at this from an neutral stand point.
I would recommend getting together with a group of friends for the first few months. What a person says online may be the complete opposite or obscured edition of the person. Once you get to know the guy personally via meeting face to face, then you can start going one on one. It's just a safety precaution.
With all the stuff that's happened with girls on MySpace.com Bringing a group of friends for the first few months would be a safer method.
Hope that helps. =D

Sweetie, don't do this. There are predators out there who
may hurt you. It's very dangerous. Lots of guys pretend to
be something they are not- young, sweet, handsome.
Keep this relationship casuual and only online. Don't tell him
many clues about you: where you live, what school.. Don't.
The chances that you'll find him attractive are slim even if he
is on the up & up.
Also, it's a very bad idea to talk about your so-called "assets"
online. Your true assets are things like your personality,
sense of humor, compassion, etc. They have nothing to do
with size of anything unless the other person is interested in
a sexual relationship.
Don't even entertain the thought of meeting him. Let it cool
down.

What is the problem? From what you have said it sounds like he is a really cool guy. I think you should meet him. Of course meet him somewhere in the day time like at noon, where there is still plenty of sunlight left in the day. Meet him somewhere like a mall where there are lots of people around but other than that I do not know what you are so worried about. Go meet him.

Be very careful. What a person says on the internet may be very different than what the person actually is like. If you go meet him, take a girl friend along. I don't recommend it though.

first of all, you've never met this guy- so, you need to be VERY careful bcuz there are perverted ADULTS who pretend to be teen-agers out there & you dont know what youre dealing with-
you need to tell your parents about it and if you want to meet, they need to either go w/ you for the 1st time, or talk to/meet his parents first. Please be very careful & your parents will be the best judges of the situation. DO NOT go alone.

Why can't you just be responsible for your own actions and see him...? Just do it and find out... Why does every person who dates need to know everything (including how it's gonna work out in the end)...? Just relax, see him, and enjoy the time together...

I wouldn't chance it with someone who hasn't seen me. He may not like the way you look and you can save yourself from getting your feelings hurt and maybe meeting someoen who isn't what they say they are. It is also very dangerous too.

Sounds dodgy - maybe hes desperate ? How can you ask out someone you've never met ?
Make sure other people are there if you meet him !
