I've been involved with a person i met online and we're even thinking about getting married soon but my mom doesnt like him because i met him over the internet.
I'm not a very social person so i dont get out much. My cousin my sister and i all joined a dating site and that's where i met my boyfriend. My mom didnt seem to care at first but now that i've gotten pretty serious with him she's drastically changed her mind and i dont know what to do. I mean, we've all been very careful about this, we seen tips and such things so we wont find ourselves in difficult situations... he's a very nice guy and all his family seems very nice as well so i dont know what the problem is
What and how should i tell her that what we're doing is not wrong?

I like your name. That's my name too! If you have already met your on line boyfriends family. That's good. Your mom is just worried because maybe she thinks your jumping into marriage to quick. I don't know how long you been talking and dating him. But you should wait. I'm not saying it won't work out. You should just wait and get to know him a little more deep. When you become a mom you will understand why your mom worried. It's a mother thing!

Have you met this guy in person yet. If you havent then I would recommend that as a first step. get to know him in social settings and you'll see that a person's online profile doesnt even tell half the story.
I think even you mom is basically asking for is that you get to know this person better before you give your heart. Convincing your mom shouldnt be a problem if she was alright with your initial approach. Once you get to know him better and you are ready, You should invite him over with a group of friends to your home so that your mom can see that he is perfectly normal.

Hun, i would listen to your mother. Have you heard the news and stories about people who go missing are disappear because of the predators online.. your mother has a point, you probably aren't safe. Dont let your guard down because you think he is safe.. I am serious, i watched the news one time about a girl who was dating this guy she met over the net and just outta curiosity one day she put his name in google and did a check on him and found out that he was 'America's Mosted Wanted Fugitive" wanted for repeat sex offender, be careful!

nicely, in my opinion i think of 13 is a tad too youthful, yet possibly circumstances are changing. i replaced into approximately 11 or 12 while i replaced into even allowed msn. Anyhoodles, If speaking with your mum hasn't labored, then possibly attempt exhibiting her myspace and your human beings pages and such. you may desire to ask her earlier each and every thing whether you may make one, and easily pass on it for a couple of minutes each and daily or some thing, to get used to the assumption. You mightn't even like myspace. (i do no longer- I hate the bloody ingredient. supplies me lag). nicely, which would be no longer likely, yet possibly attempt getting your human beings into facebook if your mum likes that concept greater clever- facebook i think of has plenty greater privateness and is greater look after than myspace, in my opinion.

It's your life... if you love this guy than that's really all you should worry about. Perhaps your mom is upset because she hasn't gotten a chance to know your boyfriend yet. Give her a chance to interact with him and she'll soon come to understand that he's not an "internet weirdo". Internet relationships are so common these days. Your mom just needs time to get used to it.

Sounds to me like your boyfriend needs to spend some quality time with you and your Mom so Mom can get to know him better.

the only way your mom can be convinced is if she meets the guy and gets to know him for herself...otherwise nothing you say is going to change her mind...she's a mother that's trying to protect her baby...its normal...
