And starting to like him/her? Good place to meet people, or full of nothing but pervs?

Me and this guy met online a few days ago...we talked on the phone for 6 hours last night. I get no weird vibe from him. And my friend also met her soon to be husband online. And IF i meet him, i will have a group of friends with me.

Forget about the friend soon to be ex husband thing. It has no bearing on this question. If you got no weird vibe then that is a positive thing. The other good thing was a 6 hour conversation. Go to a public place such as a mall or a bowling alley and make sure that you have a ride home. Don't spend any time with him alone other than in a public place for your first visit. A safe ride home is best and good luck.

I met my husband online. There are pervs, but there's also plenty of nice people. Just meet in a public place where there's plenty of people around you, and don't go off alone at first. Keep an eye out for any red flags or weird behavior, and trust your gut. I met a few guys online before I met my husband, and all except for one were nice, normal guys. The one bad apple was just looking for sex. I think the biggest challenge with online dating is seeing whether or not there's a spark between you once you finally meet.

When I was 15 I started talking to a guy online. I met him for the first time in person when I was 16. I moved to be with him two years later, and now, almost three more years later after that, we are engaged to be married in December. The long distance thing was hard, but it CAN work if both are willing to make it work. I also work with a woman who married someone she met online, and they're doing great too. But, I'm sure there are a lot of freaks too, so be careful.

It all depends on the actual people. I had a unique experience, in which I met somebody in person 1st and then started communicating online. I'm naturally a very reserved person, so I was amazed at how quickly I felt comfortable telling him stuff. We don't live close by and work opposite shifts, so email was our only source of takling. But, word of caution...be careful what you divulge, even if you feel like they're for real. and in my case, friendship was going great; felt like bro/sis and then out of the blue--he doesn't want to talk anymore. So be sure not to get too attached.

I met my boyfriend online and my brother met his wife online, so i think its a great place to meet people as long as you are safe with it because there can be pervs on there as well.

I think its a good place to TRY and meet people, just understand that for every real and nice person there are probably like 14 pervs.

debateable question...dont forget that online anyone can be anyone & anything, so be careful!!! if u should choose to meet someone face to face that u met online, please do it in a public area, during the day & with friends with u!!! it is better to be safe than sorry (sorry for the cliche). there are some really great people out there...but there are the weird ones too. also, dont rush into meeting them...take ur time & ask lots of questions...always ask questions!!

I've done it many times. Only after talking to them for sometime online and on the phone, of course. I have made quite a few friends along the way

I think you might find good people...but if you consider to meet anyone personally, don't go by yourself...take a friend and arrange the first date in a public place.I met nice people...not many though!!

I have no interest meeting people on line. There are plenty of people in my home town that I still haven't met yet. At least
I'll know they are real. Who knows about those on line people?
