I have joined a chat room that a friend of mine is always chatting to people on and i will say that there are alot of great people on there that always find things to chat about.I think that by having a place you can chat to people that you do and dont know is great as they also tell you other sites that maybe of interest to you.There are a few of us that are all getting together soon, so that we can all see each other rather than just chatting on the pc, i can not wait.

Not always safe. Though i met my wife in a chat room. Chatted for two years never meeting. Then by chance, moved to the city she lived in, met her, fell in love, and got married to her. Took couple of years to convince her to marry me. It was the best thing a chat room could do,but i have heard horror stories from friends. so be on guard.

I am on my guard, that is why the place where we are meeting is a place that me and my friend knows as well as we know the people that own the place we are meeting at.We are also getting driven to the place and collected by my friend, also we are all women and have chatted on web cam so we all know what we all look like.

Yes i have also experience that when i was in a chat room. That person gave me an idea on how to earn extra money on the internet. She gave me advises and list of sites where to sign and their potential earnings. I am grateful to her.

good for you. but please be careful where you meet. theres so much bad going on today. people need to meet in public and maybe even bring a friend you already know.

We are meeting up with these people where there are people that know me and my friend, so it should be great and we are also getting a friend to take us as well as come to collect us when we want to come home.I do know that it can be unsafe to meet with people that we do not know, so i am playing it safe.

I also am a big fan of chat rooms. I think having friends on the internet is great because you can always be talking to them while you are searching through sites or just sitting on facebook. It's also cool to talk in chat rooms because of how most of the people there are from so many different places! That's cool that you're going to get to see your friends. I hope you guys have a good time!

I am sure it will be great, as the place that we are all meeting up is never really that busy, so we will hear each other talk, where as sometimes places are busy and you have to shout to get the other person to hear you.I love getting on the chat room.New hobby i think.

When I was a teenager I used to spend a lot of time in chatrooms. However, I don't spend nearly the time in chatrooms now that I did then. I do, however, love going to chats that are about scrapbooking because in those I really find people that are kindred spirits. I've been chatting with a lot of the same people online for quite some time and now I'm hoping that I will have the opportunity to meet some of the same people in real life here in a couple of months.

That sounds really great and the meeting sounds like fun. I have often thought it would be such fun for about a dozen or so of us fellow Mylotters to meet in some trastegic spot for a week-end or so. It would be so fun to meet them face to face and see who we have been discussing things with for so long. Maybe some day. You enjoy yourself. Hope you will let us know how it all went.

hello joystick! well,it's nice to know people from different part of the world who can be our friend through internet world. We have the right to keep information to ourselves as well. Be careful not to leave all our personal informations to them cause we are really not sure who are we talking to. There are people who can be using names or informations they don't really own. We just have to be careful most of the time. Though there's really nothing wrong with making friends online.

you're lucky, it's great to make new friends internet is another way to meet people, it's like going out or starting a new class of something: we end up meeting someone

Like you, I have met good friends in a chat room. However, most of them are from another country, so i guess i there would be a very slim chance of meeting each other. But then it doesn't matter much to me whether we meet or not, just to communicate with them on a daily basis and get to learn more about their culture is pretty much exciting. I am so happy too that i have found a chatting site to meet good friends.

Yesterday I was also in a chat room and I tried to talk to people there but no body was good at responding. Everyone was writing some lines like "Any F/20 here, talk to me". I saw a Mylot friend there but I think he she was busy somewhere else.
