I'm new in this site and very naive. When I posted for the first time, one guy responded that "he would rock my world" and being a convent-bred girl, I was really intrigued by it. We have been e-mailing since and it had been pretty intense. I know there's anonymity and all that (so maybe it's safe enough) but I still want to know your opinions/comments on this. Am I treading on hot waters?
Please help.

That's exactly what I want to know. What does "rock my world" mean? BTW, I'm over 18.

Yes, I do take pride in my level-headedness but my naivete is killing me. I thought maybe a little experimentation (strictly on the Internet) would teach me some ways of the world, so to speak.

Just as long as you keep the relationship electronic, you're safe enough. You may find some of the language unusual, but if you keep looking up 'unusual' words without letting him know you're not familiar with them, you'll keep 'ahead of the game'.
To really find out what's going on out there, though, you'll have to one day GO out there with someone. Personally. Internet relationships are, quite honestly, just imaginary, until you're face-to-face.

That's really a personal decision you need to make yourself. Anything I might have to add or anyone else on this message board is speaking from his or her own personal experience. First and foremost are your ready to get "rocked" without a commitment? ...there is no difference that you're aware of between him and any stranger off the street. I assume that being a covent-bred girl you're a virgin and very religious. This goes against your values. Really be honest about how you feel, what you want and what you're prepared to deal with if this is in fact one night and you'll never see him again or if it's a horrible experience and you feel as if you've wasted your time.

Oh my God another poor soul without a clue---and actually believing that the guy on the other side of the screen is really a nice, true blue guy---Hey Sister---get a clue--get a grip---these guys are fat losers sitting naked in the chair talking crap to you---and you can get hurt or killed by these predators looking for new stupid girls to meet...and actually go out to meet in person---Don't you read the newspapers??
You better learn to meet a guy in person, at a place where normal people hang out and have fun the normal way. Are you in school?? Do you belong to any sports or clubs--plenty of places to meet guys the old fashioned way. Be safe and be smart---good luck

It's probably safe as long as you don't give away too much personal information on the internet. You never know who a person really is, regardless of what they write. People's real personalities and what they type to you on the internet are two different things. If I were you, I would probably keep up the correspondance, but don't let your guard down. Be safe, and I hope this helps. :D

It would be better to slow down a bit. People are always triying to hook up online...and you dont this person.
If you want to make friends, try joining a group of some sort. Look online and find a group that does something that you are interested in.
Plus, I reviewed the first question that you asked and this guy's answer was inappropriate to the question you answered. Please be cautious. He may be a professional online predator.

From the answers you gave in Employment and Careers I think most of us could use your advise than the other way around.
However, I'll answer this as I would a real question as I don't know that it isn't. I would TOTALLY avoid anyone that told me online or offline, at a first meeting ,that he would rock my world. I find it arrogant and childish if not rude.

you are not ready to have sex, trust me. it is not save to meet people off the internet. weirdos post other peoples pictures, and LIE. i hope you have not given your home phone or address because if you have you need to tell your mother. what would you do if you met this person and he turned out to be a 45 y/o fat greasy man. stop this relationship now!!

You can never be too careful, I'm not saying you shouldn't take him on, but...
Ask him how you're supposed to know he's not dangerous, maybe he's just looking for someone, or maybe he's out to get someone, ask if he can prove or assure you that he just wants someone to be with.

Nah, have a little fun in your life. But if you guys decide to meet, you should make sure everythings good, and meet at a public place.
Have fun and good luck!

Tread very slowly. He may be a player. Don't be just another notch on his belt. Make him prove he is worth it first.
