Lets say you are on Myspace talking to someone that doesn't live too far from you and you are really enjoying talking to them so you get thier #. After a couple of days you decide you wanna ask them out on a date. Is it really any different from seeing a guy while you are out of town, getting his # and hookin up with him later?? Its a stranger either way! I just want to know how other people see it.

Oh of course I would be very careful,...I've done it before and Ive had some good experiences and some bad, but was never actually "looking" for love online. Its just that some people see it as lame and when you look at it, its almost like regular dating cuz you have to be careul no matter where you met them!!
I think some people didn't read my details and was just paying attention to the question!!!

I met my boyfriend on myspace and it started off exactly how you said. We've been dating for a month now, and the relationship just keeps getting better and better.
Just be careful when you do meet up...make sure it's in a public place, JUST in case. You never know.
It's kinda like setting yourself up on a blind date. And if you feel that you don't like the guy, then move on to the next =)
I think it's fine though.

i think its not silly. Everyone is worth loving. If you cannot find love in your surroundings, you have full ight to explore it elsewhere. Net has been a good source of finding friends. And you never know, when you find someone lovable too.
Most people though search for a GF / BF to go out with on net. I dont think anyone looks for a long term serious relationship on net. For such a relationship, knowing a person is important. So we can say that people look for short term friendships, which may later convert into marriages.
There have been several cases of successful relationships which began adho on the net. But when they were interviewed, they all (most of them) admited that they started of just like that with no prior intention for a long term affair.
So its not foolish, but its on you what you want to achieve, and what you do to get it.

Honest answer- yes it is
No it is so different in person. I think it is almost necessary to start with normal physical attraction. The problem with the net is that people get too familiar too early because they are not afraid to say things.
If you are in front of someone you will be nervous and it creates a sexual tension. Its good to be a little afraid of what someone thinks of you. Its a challenge.
Whereas if you have had a marathon no holes barred chat session with someone on the net and then meet up-- its like- whats there to talk about in person you know-- I've already told her these intimate details theres no challenge to gain the intimacy. They are almost always destined to fail.
A guy before was asking why his 2 month relationship was floundering and revealed they were emailling daily-- I mean you dont get the chance to wonder what the other person is thinking or talk about it to your friends

Its risky when it comes to rapers and the such... Its just so easy for some guy to win ur trust over then when you meet he catches u off gaurd. Unless you know them through a trusty friend, it might not be a good idea to arange a meeting.

Not so different. I actually know of about 4 couples who have met online with very successful results.

In this day and age...the internet seems to be the new bar/club/any other public place. You just gotta be careful on my space or any other interactive website.
