I've been chatting for a few years and
I really like them...I wish everyday that I could meet them
and I know if I ever did, my life would feel complete
Is this really abnormal??? Am I a freak?

You are NOT a freak.
I would suggest that what you feel is something other than love, as I understand it. You have an image in your mind of who this person is based on internet communication. The safety you may feel could be based on what is shared over the web. People can say ANYTHING they want to say without the face to face experience. It is possible to grow in a more genuine love for this person after being together in person. I would suggest ya'll meet in person in a very safe place. Good luck.

No you're not a freak. It's becoming more and more "normal" to meet people on the internet. The fact that you have been chatting for a few years is a strong indication that the person is to be trusted but still, remain cautious. If you arrange to meet this person, meet them in a public place and have a friend come too. If you feel comfortable enough to continue on the date with the person alone (still in a public place) have a "secret" word or action to show your friend that it's okay for them to leave.
If this person is the one for you I hope you do get to meet. Meeting online isn't as taboo as it used to be. :)

I have met several people I have communicated with on the internet and I found them to be very nice people. Still, it is good to meet them in a public place and be cautious. People can portray themselves any way they like on the internet. I have to admit that some people I met were people that I did not know as well as I thought, but nonetheless I had a nice time meeting them.
