has anyone ever met anyone off the internet?

I've met some people in real whom I knew just from internet. My experiences have been good so far and must say, that few were really amazing. Its really a nice way to make friends but of course unless you meet people in real, everything is just virtual. "Build bridges not boundaries and you'll have a friend" :)

I met my boyfriend who is also here. He is from France, Paris and I am from England, London but we met and now we are together for more than four years,he comes to London and I go to Paris as much as we can, it it fun and now we are even getting engaged this year.

I meet this young lady in the internet because we been both members of a social site...My Space. She also resides near from my place. We been chatting regularly almost everyday and we become really good friends. It was last year that we decided to meet in person. Indeed we meet and she looks just the same in the internet and in personal. We had a good time together. But I suddenly lost communication with her in the following month and we no longer chat everyday. I do miss her very much and I really felt sad because I lost a friend. How I wish I could see her again. And until now I still think of her from time to time.

Hi chantalreanne: It's a little bit dangerous but I have met people on the internet and we have become friends. In my case I didn't meet a person but a group of persons. I'm a member of Keane and Coldplay's fan clubs. I've talked to my online friends for months, I have chatted with them and finally we meet each other when I went to watch Keane and Coldplay live in concert. They are really nice people. Thanks for asking us this question and sharing with us your opinion. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

I met my fiance on a chat room when I was 15 and he was 20. Turned out though he was my mates big cousin and we were sitting in the same library..how is that for fate? Me and my friends used to meet up with guys we met online. We always met in a neutral place and never went with anyone alone. The guys were ok as mates but we dont see them anymore. You have to be so careful as they could be anyone.

When I tell people I've had (and still continue to have) more friends from net than my regular friends, they find it strange. In fact, I met my first love on net. We had a blossoming relationship and it was wonderful. The very thought that I met her online made we feel strange within but I loved it. Even now I've so many friends online, some of which I've met in person and other continue to be in touch either through phone or messengers. People advice to stay away from net pals because they aren't safe to be with. Lol. I couldn't agree with them ever. May be it's time they ran into one net friend.

NO,but i want to try do that sometime.It sounds interesting

One of my very best friends in the whole world started out as a stranger on a website. We've known each other for 7 years online. We've had many phone conversations and been there for each other thru thick and thin. So it was high time to meet up in person! With him, after all these years I really didn't have any worries about safety or what he'd really be like. We already know everything about each other. I have met a few people from the internet in person and I always do it in a safe place. Either at my parent's home with family around, or in a public place with friends around. Ya know just in case. Sometimes they weren't what I expected and other times they were exactly as I thought they were and we still talk online today.

I have meet a lot of good friend through the internet and I even met my ex-girlfriend through chatting. Internet is a good way of meeting new friends. But I think this is risky to younger ones since there are tendency that this younger people can be easily bamboozled by some bad people who have bad intention into meeting them.

My uncle met his wife online and they are happily married for about 5 years i think with two children. They met on a Yahoo! chatroom. LOL

I am not sure if it is anymore dangerous than going home with someone from a bar. I mean wherever you eventually meet should be a public safe place. That really goes without saying but I see girls leave drunk with strangers from bars that I just know the guy has only one thing in mind and god only hopes he is not some mad man. Again I think its OK to meet someone online offline provided you be careful and use common sense.

No, I haven't. I'm not married and my relatives are anxious to get me hitched. I didn't know how much until an old aunt told me, why don't you meet a guy off the internet and marry him? LOL! But, from the other comments, some hookups through the net have worked. Maybe I'll go make my aunt happy LOL!

Many old guys are on there pretending to be young guys and chatting to young girls. There have been a couple of young girls killed here lately meeting older guys they met online so be careful. On the other hand I men my wife online and we are very happy.
