Meeting people through the internet (AIM, MySpace, Facebook, CrushSpot, Downelink, etc, etc.)
ok, i was given this topic from another person but, i think it is a very valid and interesting topic so i chose to write about it.
How many of us have met someone else of interest through a website before??? I'm not gonna sit here and lie and say i havent when i have lol. mind you this is someone i spoke to on and off for about 5 years before we actually, physically met. did i still feel awkward about it? HELL YEAH! he wasnt a psycho though...coincidentally i fell in love with my internet lover (lol) and we had a very good relationship.
did i always feel this way about meeting people online?? NOPE! i used to be scared like shit to even talk about meeting people from the net. all these crazy stories and news reports of people being "slain" by their internet stalker. shiiiiiit, hell yeah i used to be afraid! perhaps thats why i spoke to one person 5 years before i met them. had to make sure those pics were constantly changing and that this was a normal person...feel me??
but after a while i got attacked with spam from all these dating websites (who i wont mention by name through fear of some type of copyright infringement). i guess it made me a bit more comfortable that there were websites springing up dedicated strictly to dating. no, i never joined one because well, im against having to give my credit card info so that you can "find me love" but it did make everything sit easier with me knowing that there are SO many people meeting and dating off the net, that they dedicated quite a few websites to it.
i still dont sit and meet any old body from offline. i think altogether maybe i met 3 people off the net..and one was a female so im not sure if that counts lol. i'm still not a supporter of internet dating but i dont think it should illegal or anything. im not afraid that i'd get chopped up or anything but someones mental stability definitely cannot be judged from their "net personality"...so idk. i know if i was against meeting people online, i never would have met my ex...so im glad i changed my views.
HAVE YOU EVER MET ANYONE OFF THE INTERNET? IF SO, HOW DID THAT WORK OUT FOR YOU? IF NOT, WHAT STOPPED YOU FROM DOING SO?? DOES THIS STILL HAVE THE SAME STIGMA IT DID BEFORE?

ive met people off the internet before...do it all the time...no harm done. i think its just the people with low self esteem who are really trying to find love or a friend on here that get "chopped up" lmao
mostly people of a lighter skin tone...if you get what i mean.
Well I don't think nothen is wrong with meeting people on-line. You just have to use common since so you wont get chopped up. But you can run into a person you no but never got to no in that way and the internet can help spark that intrest. And you also can meet some new neww thats real good good.
I only have a problem with it when it comes to people who continuously MEET their significant other offline. Ive done it once or twice, but I wouldnt keep meeting people on dating sites, myspace, facebook, etc all the time.
i thouht this blog was about myspace jumpoffs!
people are weird on the net and in real life.
dont meet someone you never met anywhere secluded. Always in public always somewhere in the day.
just about everyone has met someone off line, maybe not really fucked with them, but definitely met them.
Personally I only met....(LET ME SEE)
3 People off the internet that actually had MEANING in my life (thought I was gonna say the amount of people i met ha yea right lol)
I dont really see anything wrong with meeting people off the internet especially when you going to websites like "CRUSHSPOT" i mean the name speaks for itself. You know what you are getting yourself into when you go on websites like that. So its all on yaself to know where to draw the line at.
...another answer to your question
I met you =.)
and damn i thought this was about myspace jumpoffs too lol
shit i was ready
