Answer 1

lol i would never do that ever! u never know who u might end up meeting

Answer 2

I met the father of my children online and in the beginning it was great we are not together now but that's because of him as man not the way in which we met...Our relationship lasted 4 years so I think that's sorta a good sucess story. I have made some great friends and dates from online...It just depends on the circumstance and your age your invovlement before meeting all of that. I tell people all the time you get to know people online alot more than if you had met in the bar or a club. I mean you actually may talk for days or weeks before you exchange numbers or meet where as at a bar in an hour or two u have to exchange numbers or move on...Good Luck.... dating is dating there is the good and the bad no matter how you meet.

Answer 3

I met my husband on-line (He is now deceased). We did the computer thing for 3 months then met in a public place. We married 2 years after meeting on-line. It was a happy ending.
I've just started back into the world of dating and returned to the internet. I've met a few frogs along the way, but am currently dating (2 months) a wonderful guy that I met through a site.
I would recommend this method of dating --- with precautions of course..... always met in a public place the first time, tell someone who you are meeting and where you are going, never give your personal info on the computer.
Good luck!

Answer 4

I did. My current bf of 9 months and I first chatted online for 2 weeks and then met. We have been together since. (Pictures were on our profiles.) I would suggest that you talk first and then meet in a very public place. Make sure that someone you knows where and when you are going. Be careful and good luck!

Answer 5

I've met a few people online, swapped pictures at first then met. You will be deceived 90% of the time. Only one of them was what she said she was, and we hooked up a few times. No love stories tho! Good luck and be careful!

Answer 6

I met a girl online once. She had sent me a picture, but it must have been old. We spoke on the phone and we got along OK. I picked her up and she was HUGE! She looked like she ate the girl in the picture that she had sent me. I was so bummed. Needless to say it was the shortest date of my life. I took her to the first restaurant that I saw once picking her up and right home for her. I think that meeting someone online can be both good and bad. Good because you can get to know their personality ahead of time and see if your compatible, bad because people lie online and you never know what you are going to get. Be careful, but have fun with it!

Answer 7

yep went online on yahoo chatting and met an awesome guy...
We are happily married now since almost 2 years

But it also can go completly wrong, they might have told you lies or sent wrong pictures.... If you meet a guy from the internet always do it in a public place and have an emergengy plan so you can back out

Answer 8

I met a few people off of the internet. When I did, I made sure that it was in a public place. Usually I've swapped pictures, just so when we meet, I know who it is I'm there to see. About 6 years ago, I became friends with a guy from my area that I met in a yahoo pool room. At the time, when we did meet...he had a girlfriend, whom I met as well, and we all became really good friends. Over the years, even after I moved 4 hours away, we always managed to keep in touch. About 2 months ago, I finally moved back to the area. After a large dating flop, that tanked faster and harder than the Titanic, I decided to just hang out with friends, have a good time, and not worry about dating so much. I got in contact with my friend and his girlfriend, to see if they wanted to hang out one night after work, only to find out that they had broken up a few weeks prior. I was sad, but still intent on reconnecting with my friends, even if seperately. So I made plans with his ex-girlfriend, to go out one night for 'birthday shots' since our birthdays were fairly close together, and then made plans with him to go shoot some real pool after work. I drove out to his place to meet him, where we both decided we didn't really wanna go out, so we just hung in and watched movies all night long. That night we made plans to go see a movie, that we both really really wanted to see. We went and saw Beerfest, had a great time, and then next day he decided that he wanted that night to be a date. We've been together ever since, and we're both head over heels for each other. For 6 years we built up a really great friendship, that over time became something else. The ex was pretty pissed, but admitted that she had always thought that if the two of them didn't work out, that we'd be perfect for each other...and that was way before we got together. So there are happy endings when it comes to meeting people online!

Answer 9

I met on line and met her when she just lived 25 miles away. When I drove up to the meeting place I seen a 300 lb woman and kept driving on.

Answer 10

I met a girl on a swingers site, we exchanged photos, and later went out. She didn't look as good as she did on the site.

Answer 11

Yes, I guess you could say I've met someone.
No, we haven't gone out yet. Distance is a problem.
I sent her a picture, but I'm still waiting for one from her..........Hopefully in her cowboy boots. :)
Can't tell you the ending yet cause I'm still "playing my cards".......
.........But either way I enjoy her emails.
