as we all know there are a lot of ways to establish a relation with others in this mordern society,wherever you may be,whatever you do,you just need a computer which could connect your PC to the network,so a lot of softwares for chatting or keeping in touch with your friends appeared,like SKYPE,ICQ,QQ,we can make so many friends in this social network space by voice or typewrite,sometimes we find we are not real ourselves anymore between reality and network.maybe we are the quiet man,but when we are online,we become so talkative,we like this social network space,so free.
so have u ever meet someone you really care ,if he or she wants to meet u in reality ,accept or refuse?would you care about so much,and you would be so afraid to meet him or her!please share your opinions with me!

I am scared to chat with strangers that's why i only have my family, relatives and friends in my chat list and other social networking accounts. It's good to be making friends from other places but with the kind of world we have right now it's so hard to trust and establish genuine friendship and relationship.
Mylot helped me a lot to establish that confidence with its members. Now i have lots of friends local and international to share and discuss with "anything under the sun". But if someone will ask me to meet with her or him... i am not comfortable right now not unless it will be a general assembly of all mylot members in our area/country.

...and later an international assembly of all members. Why not?
Have you made a decision already about accepting or refusing his offer of help? Goodluck my dear friend!

the world has become smaller with the advent of technological advances in communication, its funny, but i had to ask myself the same question recently- I had met someone online that i really believed i had fell in love with but i still had to address that nagging question.... should i... could i dare meet the person? i think one has to take a number of factors into consideration in situations like this because the net is still a really dangerous pace!
(1) how long have you known the person and how much do you know about them? I
(2) is their any evidence to vallidate that the person is real? (there aree alootttttttt of fakerrss online :( you should never trust anyone a 100 percent no matter how much you think you love them, especially if you have never met the person!
(3)if you were to meet the person in real life, where would the location be? (important because i think you would feel more comfortable in a public place with lots of people or one
these are all important i think... i also think its natural to be afraid, it means you are still careful and even though online romance and love is very real and even though some have blossomed into real life happily-ever-after stories; meeting the person is a big step and should be thought over seriously.

I have met several online friends, and most of those meetings have been a positive experience. Two of my online friends have become my close friends in real life, and I am very happy that I took the chance and decided to meet them. I also found my husband online, so the internet has brought me a lot of good things 
Of course you have to be careful when you meet online friends for the first time, and I would never invite online friends to my home straight away, our first meeting always takes place at a public place.

it all depends on you, if you do have a good feeling about someone and that person wants to meet you face to face, why not what have you got to lose? you can go ahead and meet the have new friend but just alway bear in mind to be careful when you do this. never met someone in a private place, and never met someone alone. you still need to be careful and protect yourself from those who only plan to take advantage of you. it is best if you get to met with your group of friends that way you know you are safe and do this not just once, take time to know him or her before you go out with that person alone. its always best to be careful.

If it is very recent relationship my opinion is that you wait for some time and try to understand him/her better
But if you are in contact with guy for a long time and you think there is no harm or you have confidence may be you can meet him/her at a fine and safe atmosphere....I have some friends who found their partners online and they are doing fine....

yep,i think we all need time to know someone whatever we are in reality or the internet,so time can prove everything,just be patient,right?

The internet and all the PC's are great modes of communication for everyone. You can literally meet people from all around the world that way. I think its just great to be able to do this right from your own home, office or neighbourhood. The benefits of technology are great.

You just do what you like to do.Although there are some people who are up to no good.You should trust that the most of the person is friendly.And the network just is one of way of make friend.

For online friends know,I think the fate of all to see,meet or not meet,or listen to your heart's decision.
