Date with someone you met online...?!?

Make it like a double date, take a friend with you and ask him if he can take a mate with him. I met my fiance on the internet, we spoke for about 7 months before we met, he was with a group of mates and i was with a group of mates. but yeah take someone along with you and ask him to do the same. make sure you ahve your phone with you at all times.

Yes, as long as they live within 40 minutes of driving. After 2-3 emails, you should meet for a coffee date or lunch date at a halfway point. 45 minutes of light & fun conversation and you're done. Anything after that is no different than if you met them in the checkout line at the grocery store. Just don't talk about exes or marriage. No heavy topics. There are 4-5 reputable sites for dating. Remember: If the dating site is free, you are not likely to get your money's worth.

first of all how old are you? if you are under 18 then I would say NO way should you meet anyone online. That being said, I met my husband online. As long as you meet in a public place, tell someone you trust where you are going, and don't get alone with him anywhere, then you should be ok. Have fun, I've met a lot of guys online before, some turned out to be losers, some were ok and turned into boyfriends and some just friends, nothing romantic. But I'm in my 30's.

I have met many people off the internet. It's pretty easy.

Just do it... Tell yourself that you can't cancel on him again, that wouldn't be cool.

If you get there and things don't go as expected, excuse yourself to the rest room and call a friend to call you back with an emergency giving you a good escape plan. It might make you feel safer.... I have never had a bad experience with meeting someone online.

all i can say is be careful. there are a lot of sickos out there that will say anything to get you to someplace where they feel that they are safe to try to get in your pants. some things are better done the old fashioned way. meet face to face. not online. if you do go to meet him do it this way:

1. make sure your parent know what is going on

2. only in a public place, with a lot of people.

3. absolutely do not get in his car or leave with him.

4. have a friend go with you and watch from not too far away. if the guy tries anything then you will have a safety net in place to protect you. make sure that your friend that comes with you is big enough to defend you.

if after the first meeting you find that he is not some old fart trying to do something inappropriate and that he is a decent guy then play it by ear, but just be careful.

i did see a woman that i met online. the situation was different. she was a friend of a friend. my friend gave her my email after talking about me for some time. she contacted me. it didnt work out, but she was assured that i wasnt some sicko and i was assured that she wasnt some wacko.

I met my current boyfriend online (Yahoo Personals).

Just a few pointers:

- Talk to him on the phone before you meet in person.

- Pick a place to meet; don't let him pick you up on the first date.

- Don't go to his place on the first date.

- Tell a friend or parent where you're going and what time you plan to be home.

- Call your friend or tell your parent when you actually do get home.

- Use your common sense. Don't tell him personal information until you're absolutely sure he's trust-worthy.

Otherwise, ENJOY! Lots of people meet online now.

you're very naive to think that you know him enough to know that he's not a sick pervert. you don't even know what he looks like. those pictures may be completely fake, and his profile may be completely the opposite of who he is in reality.

before you go on your date, you need to let someone close, a friend, know where you are going. have them promise to call you at a certain time, like 1 hour after your meeting time. after you get to the date, if things go well, call your friend and tell them that things are going well. if you want to leave, wait for the phone call from your friend. pick up, and talk to your friend for a little bit, and tell your date that you have an emergency, and excuse yourself.

do not get in a car and go to his place. do not have him pick you up at your place. meet in a very public place. during these crazy times, you can never be too cautious.

ive never gone on a 'date' with guys but i've met a few before.. whatever you do, make sure its in a public place. don't show him your house or give out too much info so he can't find you later if you decide you don't get along. relax, he's probably really nervous too. think of some topics to discuss beforehand so you feel prepared

I think that for the first time you meet him, at least, that you shouldn't be alone. Propose a double date maybe. I think that you need to play it safe cause you never know no matter how nice they might seem online.

I have.

It was an accidental thing.

I was chatting with this chick who suddenly accused me of being her ex and saying I was spying on her. She demanded I "prove it" by calling her.

It wasn't well thought out, and we used each other for sex later on (she was trying to forget about her ex) and that was the end of that.
