I'm curious, I've never actually had a physical encounter with someone I've met online. I don't think I'm as scared as much as I am cautious. Have any of you physically met your "cyber" pals? Do share!!!

Absolutely! I've met both guys & girls from this site in person...GREAT people! But it is wise to be somewhat cautious...talk to & get to know them for a long, long time before meetig face to face...I've seen way too many hearts get broken cuz they rushed into things...Good luck!

I have met 3 others from another site, but noone here yet. Only one was real creepy. So lets say 2 out of three are good odds

Wow
With the exception that if they live long distance - and even then I've spoken to many long distance as friends etc..., my objective is to at least talk over the phone and then perhaps meet. I've talked and met a number of women from online.
For the ones who refused to talk me are either 1. just plain chicken/scared and or reflect on more of the negative experiences from their past experience online even if it's just one bad apple, than an opportunity for a positive with a person whom they haven't even given a chance to speak over the phone with or 2. they are already in a relationship or married. 3. they are online simply for entertainment or game playing
There's nothing better than after a few email exchanges or chat to call and perhaps in the future if both of ya looking to date people for potential mates. If these two objectives are for both, then....
For crying out loud some people think that allowing a person to call them over the phone is like committing a self crime - especially when they can always block a number or even call the other party *67. JMO - - LMAO

Couldn't have said it better myself HUN!
Caution is always the key, just like the young ladies in the movies,
The monster man enters the house and she goes upstairs where there is no escape,
Never bothers to call the police and please turn on a light when you walk around!!
Thank God Woman are not this way in real life or I would be talking to only guys here..
JMT..... ALWAYS ,,, J MAN
PS.. See my post in Relationships... Peace and love

While I've emailed and chatted with many people, I've only met a couple of guys from this site. Great guys: one like I expected, one much different than his online personality.
