I make new friends :-)

Hi, I too often heard about meeting online friend turn out to be disaster. But I make a check and recheck about the people im gonna meet. The forum has ever held several meeting before, and these people often attended the meeting, the admin knows them very well. oh i forgot to add that most of us are females, and we were accompanied by boyfriend, husband, brother, and the male members came with their gf. We had meeting in a resto. Actually the purpose of the meeting is to see the festive and captured the moment. Yes, i agree with you to be careful with online people it is not much different with offline people, some maybe bad but some is good.

Yes. We must be careful, so that no things that are not desirable. You are right, when met, we must be accompanied by someone.

Hello Jaiho2009, Im happy you have a good story with your online friends who became your best friends. Many people thinks online friendship is such a strange thing because most of them only heard bad stories about online meeting. For me, when I join a community it is because I want to make new friend and to spend my free time, I know there are good people and bad people in online world but Im sure they are also people who is looking for friendship like me. wow your story is encouraging me more to find good friends in online world. by the way have you ever met people from mylot community?

yes, there are many stories about bad thing happened when meeting online friends. But I have check them before i finally join them. I joined their forum to know more information about a festive because i want to see and capture the moment too, and they also have plan to see the festive. We are 9 members (7 females and 2 males), they have good photography skills and have a lot of experience. They also have attended previous forum meeting before, so i said to myself why not join them. I think online and offline people are not different, both can be good and can be bad, but for me i always limited myself not expose to much about my life to the online and offline friends. And never meet online person alone, always bring someone older to accompany me.

Hello thatgirl, glad you decided not to meet the guy. I heard a lot of case where meeting online people can be bad, but I dont have to meet single person I only want to attend group meeting and I must check their reputation first, like how many time they have attended the forum meeting so I can know that they are real people. I also bring my brother or someone else older than me to accompany me to the meeting, well even if most of the members are females but it is not wrong to prevent from the worst thing. We had fun and we also captured a lot of picture and videos from the festive, I envy their photography skill. im glad i met them at least i can learn something from them.

Hello sjvg1976, Yes i had a great time with my new friend and Im really happy I can captured the royal wedding and the festive, my new friends has great photography skills and they have expensive camera wow I kinda envy them but seriously Im so glad that I met them because I learn something new. I agree with you that even offline friends can cheat too, but I always try to stay positive but not forget to stay alert with those online and offline people. Yes, everything has a risk but if we do something to minimize the risk then why not go for it, I mean the forum I joined in has made several meeting before, Im a new member there but they welcome me very well, I think I got a lot of benefit from the meeting. and oh my God my new friends bring me souvenirs from Japan, it is really touching, bring souvenir to new friend that she never met before only through online conversation. I think yes many online people is bad, but there are still good people out there. but we also need to stay alert from the bad people.

I like to make friends both online and offline. I meet these online people and they are not different from offline friends, it just that they are living in different city and country so that they are called as an online friends. I joined their forum recently, to get more information about a cultural festive i would like to attend, and there i know these people they also want to see the festive too. I checked their reputation before finaly meet them, they have attended several forum meeting before. The forum is a wellknown media in my country, the owner is very famous. The admin of the forum also knows the members that I met, so it is confirmed that they are good members in the forum.

Hi there, welcome to mylot. I have never met anyone from mylot, but I met online people that I know from other forum. It was fun, we had same interest, we continue our discussion in real life while we had dinner. Actually i didnt like to go to online gathering unless if i know the people very well. But our meeting purpose was to captured the royal wedding and festive, so that we can write it in our blog. I heard a lot about meet with online people turn to be a nightmare, but i always checked the reputation of the person in the forum before i meet them. I checked their gallery to see where they come from, how many times have they attended the gathering, and comment from the other members. And must important thing is to meet a group of people in a crowded area, never meet face to face in a private location.
