Default Would you advise me meeting up with someone I’ve met on the internet?

I am online most of the time and I “meet” many people. But there is one guy who I met online and exchanged messages and even sent him my photograph on his request. He now wants to meet me. Should I say yes? Would you advise me meeting up with someone I’ve met on the internet? Please help.

Does the person live in the same country as you or some other country?

But why does he want to meet you? This can be very risky since we cannot trust the strangers but he may be a good person too. I think that if ever you go to meet him then you should not go alone.

At least something very interesting to deal with….Well my friend…this is really a bad thing to do ok…I would not advice you to go and meet with this person in these conditions… I suggest you to find a better way to make sure that this person is the right one… if you both have web cams, that would really works… I’m not telling you that your may be dangerous or a liar but it’s just a precaution to prevent from getting bad suprises!!!

The idea of the webcam is really a nice one. It is risky for you to go and meet someone whom you know only through the internet. You know the well known saying that “ Appearances are deceptive” so I’ll tell you not to trust this person so quickly.

hey denver;s idea is right, try chatting using webcam, then you could see him and ask him all question and see wht his intentions are. If you decide to meet him then do it in a public place..you can always fly out in case of bad surprises...

The idea of the webcam is indeed right but what if she doesn’t have one. How is she going to know the intention of the person in this situation? Is there some other way out?

How long have you guys been talking?
Does he make you feel comfortable?
Have you spoken on the phone?

There is no harm in meeting someone as long as you are sure before of a few things. If you do decide to meet, make sure it's in a public place, and try to get there using public transportation, that way he can't run your plates! Don't get into a car with him, no matter what he says.

A good place to meet is a mall, that way you always have an exit nearby, and there are tons of people around. I would also recommed doing it during the day, and not late at night.

Good Luck no matter what you do!

Cestmoi is right. I completely agree with him. I will add that if possible tell someone to accompany you but not stay with you so that he doesn’t know that you are not alone.
