The only danger is when you give details of a personal nature like your address, or mobile no, just be carefull get to know someone very well and if you do meet make it somewhere busy, dont give your details for a few meets after your comfortable, and you know he ok. good luck.

Hi, there will always be dangers whether on the internet or not as you can never really know someone in the beginning - look at those stories you read about when the woman finds out the man has another woman or wife in another county! That said, I can highly recommend the internet providing you pick a well known one. I met my husband through Yahoo Personals 3 years ago and we married in May last year and are very happy - we are soulmates. I did meet a few others first, although my husband didn't. My advice would be to chose to meet someone who does not live that far away as it means he can't hide too much! My hubby lived just 15 miles away and soon after we met he took me to where he was living and I met his friends to put my mind at rest and to trust him. Always, always meet in a public place and tell someone where you are going to meet him. Never get in a car with anyone or go anywhere else other than where you meet on the first date. You should get a pretty good idea if he is genuine or not. Exchange emails, talk on the phone before the meeting. You can tell if they are married if a) they are cagey about a phone number, b) they are late meeting you (means they had problems getting away!) or they are cagey about where they live. I met someone who had all three of these - needless to say I didn't meet him anymore! It is not at all sad to meet someone on the Internet as it becomes harder and harder to find someone elsewhere - you would have to have a wide circle of friends and social life to do this. If it is not happening for you then go for it and good luck! I am proof that it really works as I have never been so happy as I am with my hubby. x

I think it would be dodgy, yeah. But only in terms of you just really dont know who these people are. I mean im sure there are genuine folks looking for someone on the internet but id say theyd be few and far between. If you feel you need to try it well than dont be worried about feeling like a sad case coz you never know you might meet a good person. I do agree with whats been said already about meeting real people, theres really no substitute for that. But i do get it that it can be a hard thing to do...

no you would not be sad millions of people meet on the net and are very happy you have just as much danger of something happening to you if you meet some1 in a night club so if you meet some 1 from the net meet in a public place maybe have a few friends in the back ground so if you dont feel safe you can leave with them a go for it just be safe good luck

I think its a good idea, join a reputable site. they cost approx 15 per month. there will be 8 guys for every girl so you should get lots of attention. Go on the group nights out and have fun. Yes there are weirdos but there are alot of normal people too so as long as your careful i don't see a problem. Good luck to you

Don't go on the net looking for love. I am not saying that it can't happen, that is where I met my husband but neither of us was looking. And yes it can be very dangerous, there are too many pervs out there just waiting for someone who is "looking". So don't look, just let it happen. But as I was saying, you can meet someone online but don't push, just get to know them. Goodluck!

Exactly the same as if you met someone at work, although people in real life have a tendency to be nice until they get what they want, or realise they aren't going to get what they want, and then turn into not nice people.
At least on the Internet you don't have to see them again!
