I have a few people on my friends list on myspace. They keep saying they want to meet me cause we're in the same city. Don't worry, I'm not going to. But would anyone out there actually go through with it and meet that person? Maybe if it was in a public place?

I've actually done it... but it's that I'm careful about it. Actually my ex boyfriend, and we're the love of each other's lives, I met online. He and I chatted for a long time first, and then we decided to meet. We really liked each other online, then fell in love in person. The first few times, we did meet in public places, and as the friendship grew, and trust grew as well, we met in more private places. I mean, yes the internet is full of weirdos and just plain scary people, but you don't think you're scary, do you? There are a lot of good people online too. Maybe if you have a religious faith, you might feel more comfy meeting people within a sphere like that rather than just arbitrary people online.
Good luck!

Yes, I did but I wouldn't do it the way I did it even though it worked out for me. I am married to the guy now, lol and have two kids with him. I didn't make it a habit to meet guys on the Net but I kinda just stumbledi into this. I was drawn to him for reason. We eventually exchanged phone numbers and talked on the phone for a while (3 months) Not a good idea b/c someone can locate you through your phone number....anyhow then we met in the middle of the night alone in the dark....Yikes!!! We dated for 1 1/2 years and took turns driving the 400 plus miles that separated us then we lived together and got married. (eight years now) However, I wouldn't want to lead anyone on that this was the right thing to do b/c I just happened to luck out. I should have met him in a public place with a friend coming a long with me. I may even do a back ground check on him first, lol! I don't why I took that risk but I did....It would have worked for us either way if we met in public with friends along b/c we were meant to be together.

Its possible to meet people online and become friends. There are a couple of websites that I have made contact with individuals. We had similar interest and hung out at the same places. If the chemistry is right; meet up with them; only if you feel comfortable and it has to be at a public place.
In essence; because of the chemistry and personalities we hit it off and are now social friends. It can happen, but I urge you to use caution. Sometimes the people we meet online are really different from what they expose on the websites.

As long as you are old enough to make that decision on your own. And make sure you meet in a public place. I have met up with some people that I met online. Some where cool some were crazy so be very very careful!

I've done it many times. Just be careful and do it in a public place. If you also want, just tell the person you'll be meeting that you will have a friend with you. If they say something against it, then you shouldn't meet this person.

Why not ?
What are you scared to meet another person from your own town.
Unless you could someday actually meet someone online it's seems as though it a big waste of time.You may have well heve been playing some stupid video game.
Is this person by there online profile / picture someone that you think you may want to meet?
What makes them special?
Yeah definitly a public place.

Yes, and I have known of successful meetings. It can be a good thing to do. However, all safety precautions must be in place.
If you are a minor, you must have your parents speak on the phone to his/her parents and approve the meeting (probably in their presence).
Or you must meet in a public place with lots of people and never go from there to another site. Make sure you have a cell phone and that someone else knows where you are. I am sure there are many helpful rules. Leave if he/she looks different from a picture that they sent.

I would have to be on crack or I would have to be really stupid to do that. I mean why do't you just go out to a restaurant or a club and meet real people not fake people that you meet in myspace.

I have 'gone through with it' and met several internet friends whom i've talked to for a long period of time. most were exactly who they claimed to be.
word of warning; public places are key and it also helps if you can round up a group of friends to meet at the same time.
NEVER EVER MEET ANYONE ALONE.
