Online friend...>.<

[Guest]

OK so- Me and this girl have been friends online for over a year- We chat for like 4 hours a day! We have so much in common and we get on so well that it actually feels like I know her person!
We text each other and I can tell her anything and I just know that she'll support me no matter what.
I've seen her on webcam, Spoken to her on the phone, on microphone and I know 100% that she's not some 40 year old perve.
My mum and her mum saw each other on webcam and my mum saw her and her mum saw me...
We really want to meet up now after being great friends for over a year- And I know people say that you should never meet up with someone you met online- and normally I wouldn't but I know I can trust this person.
Now for the whole dilemma which I am asking advice on-
How the hell do I ask/convince my parents to let us meet up one weekend? She lives on the other side of the country about 5 hours away =[
Her mum knows about me and everything but my mum doesn't know how I know her or who she is- She just thinks she is a school friend?
I'm soo worried about this and I really do want to meet her now and ahh! What do I do?
I would appreciate any advice on this at all....

Are you actually after getting together with her or ya just wanting to stay friends.
(If ya wantin to go out wi her then I'll move this to the dating and relationships section as you'll get more on topic advice)

I've met a lot o people from online, hell even everyone I know on here and the parties and stuff I've had with em, I'd only got to know em first on this forum, also I've been to quite a few parties with people I knew from my old gaming sessions, quite a few of those were far down south from where I live.

Meeting people that ya know from online, that aint bad, it brings people together who wouldn't normally be due to being far apart. Only meeting people from the net who ya don't know are you're age or what they look like and what their intentions would be is bad, all ya gotta do with that is use common sense, but if as you've said you know how old this girl is and that she is a girl from chatting to her on the fone and webcam and so on I cant see there being a problem.

So if ya really wanting to meet then just get on the train and go, or arrange to meet halfway or whatever suits ya both best. If ya think ya parents will be a bit pissy about it then dont tell em lol, just say ya going to the cinema and out with ya m8s for the day or whatever, then jump on the train, meet up and have a good day, then make sure you've sorted out getting back.

It aint really that bad as long as ya know what ya doing, just dont go meeting anyone and everyone off the net thats all and you'll be fine.

I'd go for it.
Take someone with you.
I've met up with people in that past but you have to be DEADLY sure theyre who you think they are.
Take a mate.
Get her to take a mate.
Go somewhere public, like the cinema or town or something.
You should be ok.

Just because you met them online doesn't mean they're Aliens, and your Mom and her Mom have seen each otheron webcam, you have spoken to each other and have seen each other and know each other really well, so just tell them this.
Ask them if she can come over and play some video games so that way they know she's not a Purverbt and they can also get to know her better.

LMFAO ^^ No, We're both girls and I'm straight So I don't want to go out with her... We're just friends so this is in the right section.
Thanks for the advice, I'm still not sure how to ask my mum and I'd rather she knew I was going to meet up with her rather than do it behind her back.

Also, I didn't realise I wasn't logged in at the time hence it being under "Guest" so it was me that posted it...

just make sure that someone goes with you.. but other than that GOOD LUCK!!

Lol yeah sorry bout that, couldn't see any gender details and it just sounded like a classic guy meets girl sorta thing, apologies.

But anyways yeah even better then, if ya mums have seen each other on cam an so on then get her number, talk to her a lil then get her to put her mum on the phone so you can ask if ya can meet up, (if she wants), and if need be get your mum to speak to hers.

Itl be so much simpler if ya both girls as ya can involve ya parents then without any dodgyness, theyd probably be happy for ya to meet up and have fun.

If not then just go down and meet her anyways, or agree to go somewhere thats halfway or whatever, but since ya both girls then just get ya parents to help out, might as well. If they speak to each other an spesh if ya put the cam on as well then theyll have no problem with it :)

Mom used to tell me, don't trust things online listen to them, they are exprienced

[Bob!]

Dude she's seen the lass on webcam lol, not everything online is untrustworthy, ya just havto be more aware when you don't know things for sure thats all.

[Kate]

Bobs right wen.

Just cause its online doesnt mean its a pervert rape service

[chocolatepocky]

Mm this could be a great relationship but you always have to be wary.

I'd say, go for it! But bring a friend or two with you (ask her to do the same) and meet somewhere public.. and hang out and have fun!! :D

About your mum, I think you should tell her the truth. *the truth will set you free* :P Having lots of lies is always hard to keep track off and overall, just not very healthy with a relationship. Tell your mum the truth, ask for permission and point out that you'll be in a public area with lots of people and with friends that she has met.

[shenalmighty]

im sorry but only total losers meet girls online so forget it and go meet some in the real world

[Bob!]

Lmao don't be such a gigantic tit, why not meet someone you know online, it brings people together.

I've met a lot of people from this forum and many others and enjoyed some great times with people who I wouldn't have known normally due to distance.

Aso you arrogant arse, if you'd actually read through the thread first you would have noticed that the person theirself is also a female, and this is just a friendship, not a date, hence why its in the friends and familly forum.

It would do you well to think before you reply in such a manner next time...

[Luke]

Yeah, Shen's a reyt weird un.

Stay clear of him I reckon.
