i was at a works 'do' last week and nearly all of us were single...only 2 were attatched,only one of those 2 were married...we were all talking about meeting people etc and everyone there except me and one other girl had joined a dating agency or chat sites etc...one woman had met a guy online and is going out to dinner with him next week! We were all saying that the stigma has gone from meeting people online and that in essence it is as safe as meeting someone in a pub or out...until you get to know someone you dont really know them...and online i suppose people can spend a long time chatting before they meet...the woman i mentioned had been speaking to this guy for 7 months...you only ever hear the bad news...never the success stories so im just interested in would you...have you and if not why not? Not personal to me just interested in the general concensus of opinion,lol...;0)

DM...nothing to do with anything...the bad news is the people who have had terrible experiences and we always hear about those...but in fact there are many success stories of people meeting online...personally i have never met anyone from online...but its not always about me,lol...i have a general interest in people behaviour and this interests me as i wonder how much we are affected by press or what we see or hear personally...if you met someone that floats your boat would you let adverse publicity and safety issues stand in the way or would you throw caution to the wind and go for it??? thats my interest here ;0)...

i've met like 5 people online. none of them i ended up dating but i'm really good friends with all of them. its weird because you get to know thier personalities before thier looks so you tend to get along with them better. just talk to them a few months before you meet them. that way you know they are not freaks. now i'm in love with someone i met at work but i am completely for internet relationships.

I would love 2, but I haven't been lucky yet. I got in touch with some 2 chics from here, exchanged photos and phone numbers but the only huddle was the geographical locations. One was from the States, the other was from the UK, and am in Australia. Things couldn't work out. Otherwise, if I met a serious one preferably here in Australia, I would definitely respect her and do whatever it would take to sustain that relationship.

This is the biggest scum and business. You are going to deal with imbeciles, bunch of losers , sociopaths, people with problems on their own to be not accepted, lonely idiots, hungry for any relationship or just sex. The successful story is ball shiet, if somebody tell you was successful - what he is doing on this crazy web side giving some sweet answers and not have real life. Is dangers, very dangers. I knew come people who try and they said never ever again to see some net connections.
There is no guarantee or protections of predators. You can be killed or rape on the way to see the person.

Personally I don't like on line dating, but only because i think most on these are only fooling around, I have the experience of this, as my Husband had online affairs that I eventually found out about, it almost wrecked our Marriage, I am cutting a really long drawn out story very short here, but I saw a lot of his mails to these women, and he lied through his teeth about who he was and what he did, one women he was even going to meet, he had arranged to meet her whilst I was in Hospital having an operation to remove Cancer, he didn't meet her, as he backed down at the last moment, the story there was that we live in Spain and he got chatting to her, she lives in the UK, I went back to the UK to have my Operation, and she lived only about 60 or so miles away from where we were, so he was going to meet her, the excuse he gave her for not meeting her was that we had a house fire in Spain and he needed to get back urgently.
Yes we are still together, but only because I found out about all this and I am giving him a second chance, I have complete control of all his email accounts so I can see what he is getting up to, thank god he has stopped all this.
What I am saying here is, that your friend has absolutely no idea if this man is being totally honest with her does she, yes she may of being talking to him for 7 months, but my husband had been chatting with this women he was going to meet for about 4 months too, she had no idea he was a married man as he told her we were divorced etc...please warn her to be very careful, I know we can meet this type of man anywhere, but on the net for some reason men and women too feel they can be someone they are not in real life, to many (not all) play games with us like this, it is just a game to them and they don't care about hurting us

If you've ever been disillusioned into thinking that there's nothing you can do to prevent premature ejaculation and that it's just something "you're born with" or "can't do anything about" then hopefully this will change your mind and inspire you https://tr.im/mnHx9
Because the truth is that there are many ways to prevent premature ejaculation, and being able to last longer in bed is something that lies within your control.

i would not advise anyone to meet someone off the internet...but saying that i did meet some great people from Newcastle last year at an internet meet...i went along with 6 friends so i was not alone, we had a fantastic weekend, but i would not advise anyone to meet up one on one especially if they hardly know them....too risky

when i was in colleage i met a guy online and we talked a lot and he used to call my dorm we talked maybe a month and i was honest with him and told him i might like him but i was hung up on one of my guy friends so he ended up comming to indiana and he came home with me for a weekend and hung out with me and some friends
the ironic thing is that it ended up making my guy friend really jealous and set things in motion for us (now happily married lol)
the guy i met online ended up changing my life i never really talked to him again he got kinda crazy when i told him i could be with him... thinking back it was kinda dangerous on my part

Yes. I agree with you. Chatting with girls on line is a very common features. whenever you come on line, she also comes on line. You express yourself and she listens to you. The chatting goes beyond chatting. If her guy asks her to show her private parts , she does and comes before webcam to satisfy her guy. This is the climax of chatting and doing sex on line. If your friend was speaking with her guy for seven months, it is not unusual. Almost all dating and chatting couples do like this. The guy goes one step forward and asks her to meet him in person. If she meets t he guy in person, the ultimate hapenings that is, sexual intercouse takes place. So I assure you that whenever you chat with the opposite sex, you are bound to reach the ultimate happening of sex.
