If You Talk To Someone Online For Awhile, Is It Safe To Meet Them In Person. What Are Some Of The Things To Look Out For Or Things To Do When You Meet?

At the end of the day you will have to rely on your own judgement whether you think you're dealing with a decent person or a psycho nutter. It is a lot easier to figure that out face-to-face than online.

There are plenty of dos and don'ts you should observe.

DON'T give our personal info on line to someone you've never seen face to face. Do not reveal details like exactly where you live, your phone number(s), where you go to school or work. Don't even give your surname.

DO meet up somewhere public and busy (in case you need to shout for help). Like a cafe or the library. DON'T agree to meet anywhere isolated. DON'T agree to go anywhere isolated with the online person until after a few meetings.

DO bring a good friend to the meeting so they can tell you what they think, too.

DO Tell other people where you are going and who you think you're meeting. If you have any reservations, then show your friends the messages/emails you've had from this other person before meeting them.

DO, If the online-friend has clearly lied to you about anything important -- like their age -- end the friendship. It's not worth it dealing with dishonest people.

Talking to someone online for a while is okay..But at the end of the conversation, do you know if everything about that person is true or untrue. Sure, they can tell you anything they want to try to persuade you into thinking that their someone that their not! Its been done plenty of times. You only know what the person tells you. You don't know what kind of person they are. When chatting online, you have play it smart. Its cool to make friends but you still don't know them like you should. Regardless of how long you have been talking with that person. You only know the information that they give you and whose to say its true or untrue. Behind a computer screen, you can portray anybody you want. You can be a nice person looking for a friend to chat with or tou can be a psycho path looking for trouble. You can be a convicted killer....A rapist...A child molester...Anything...  Do you not know its been people who has been killed, hurt, raped, and molested from meeting who they THOUGHT they knew offline. Not a smart move! So before you think about meeting someone offline, think about what the outcome of it could be...Yes, it can be a good turn out! But what if its a bad turn out? Think about that!
