If you met someone on the internet and this person had a lot in common with you and you started talking to him on messenger, would you meet him?
I mean, have you ever been fascinated by someone on the web?
Just curious.

I saw his photos on his blog and he looks so familiar, like I knew him from a past life and his blog is amazing.

Be careful of predators kiddo. This world has some ugly people in it. If you are going to meet them you should keep some safety guidelines:
1) dont meet them alone: bring a friend, meet in a public place
2) dont meet in their turf: go to a place you know, where you are known, where you can have friends
3) have a safety net: tell someone where you are going, and when to call you to see if you are okay
4) dont put yourself in a position of weakness: have your own car, and your own money. be able to "eject" if you need to.
5) dont use these rules just for the first date. Cons feel out prey before jumping on you. They may place nice the first few times. Be safe for the first 20 times you see them, not just the first one or two.
Good luck, I hope it goes well. I hope these rules are followed and everything turns out wonderful. If things dont turn out wonderful then rules like these can save your life.

I've met lots of people in person after first meeting them online, but I don't know how old you are whether or not your parents know you're doing this. I wouldn't recommend that you do this without their knowledge or without first telling someone where you are going if you do decide to meet. Meet in a public place, like a mall or a restaurant, and never go anywhere in a car with a person you just met.

If you decide to meet up with him, do it in daylight in a public place. Also, if you have a male friend or a brother, take him along but he can stay in the background and keep an eye out for you. Its better to meet up soon so you can find out if you really like him than wait months to meet someone who is a disappointment. Then you can move on if he isnt the guy for you. Just take care!

I got talking to my now wife on internet and found we had a lot in common, I travelled from Liverpool to Glasgow to meet her and we have never been apart since, we both had been speaking to other people but we were both just looking forward to hearing from each other and told the others that we had met and didn't get in touch with them again, some wished us well and we have both been very happy and in love with each other, so it does work as you can get to know a lot about them first before meeting

Yes meet him - but not on your own - once you've met him then you can find out things about him that if he meant you harm he probably wouldn't want you to know. He might be the loveiest person on the earth and you were meant to be together - or you could meet him and die of stupidity !
Don't be a victim and see an illusion and die stupid, be smart and wise and when you are sure then you can throw caution to the wind - and experience the rich diversity of life that this other person may have to offer!
Become his companion not his trophy !

I would be very careful, if he lives in the same town as you then it would probably be okay. In fact thats how I met the mother of my kids, off of myspace. Funny **** eh? Yea I think its fine as long as you make sure the guys ok and not some weirdo. And if you do meet dont meet somewhere secluded meet somewhere public or safe until you see if hes a weirdo or not.

I met my husband on the web. You have to be really carefull there are a lot of weirdos out there but there is nothing wrong with trying to find Mr.Right or even Mr. Right now. I was not sure about meeting him in person, I was really scared but I am so glad I did!!!!

Oh yeah,like you i too was taken by a guy online and we hooked up.we shared many things in common,but as months passed this guy turned out to be a jerk and i had to kick him in the @$$ and let him go.Also met many other jerks online,i just suggest you to be careful while dealing with them.But chances are good that u meet some nice guys online.Depends on your luck.

I have been intrigued by some people on the Internet, some of them on Yahoo Answers, but as to whether or not I'd like to meet them? Not sure about that, I think sometimes things are left best as they are... or maybe I'm afraid they'd be psychos.

You should go meet them, I met my girlfriend through myspace lol! things might work out but you dont know unless you try, I suggest if you are going to meet them do it in a public place like a mall or busy coffee shop just to be safe. If they dont want to meet somewhere public then dont agree to meet them alone cuz it might be dangerous.
