Actually i have, and still friends.  You just gotta make sure they are real ppl since there's a lot of fakes in this world.

I have before, yes. I wouldn't say I do it frequently though.\n\nI usually go with friends because it's nice to have someone to chat with.

I know this may sound strange. I am divorced and felt the same way as you are. I joined an online chat group. Yes i know it sounds strange. But I can honestly say I met one of my best friend by doing this. Yes there are those strange folks on-line but not all of them. Do it with caution and you can chat with some folks. When of if you decide to meet do it always in a public place....coffeehouse......Ihop or what ever. Never go to their place for the first meeting. Just do it wisely and you can meet some nice folks.

Read the answer from "Bubbles". The person he speaks of is me, and yes he thought I was a hacker, but I was genuinely trying to help him out with his laptop.\n\nDespite his initial weariness, he gave me the benefit of the doubt, and we now communicate on a regular basis - he showed me this question you submitted and thought maybe it was me asking under a different name!\n\nSo yes, we met and we share a birthday. We get on very well; he has become a good friend. \nBubbles, if you are reading... Hello mate :)

Well...short answer is that you can't...unless you want to live in the virtual world. While I have pals in chat rooms I have never met any of them face to face. I may meet a few over the next few months as I travel, but only if I have time. A true friend is some one you meet maybe 3 or 4 times in a life. My Platoon Sergeant in Iraq was one of those people. It didn't matter that we had little in common..it was like having a brother.\n\nMake aquaintances on line if you wish...but true friends are best found near by...

I have met three women that began as on-line conversation. It was very cool, as we came to know alot about each other before we met in the flesh. - Personally, I think it is a great way to meet people, as long as you are smart and safe.

I don't like that statement! I feel there are plenty of "good" people, and good people to chat with. You just seem to run into the cocky ones. But it's true, everyone does act alittle more cocky and annoying on the internet, than in real person, just because their identity is hidden!

iv meet a few people from being online and they are all still friends of mine but be careful if u decide to meet people always take someone with you and always say what you want from the meeting friendship/relationship as long as your honest then you should be fine and you should meet some nice people

AIM chat rooms, myspace, blogs.  I have made lots of internet friends and even met a few in real life -- they are all cool people.\n\nBe careful though, a very few are not so cool.  But it so cool that as long as you are watchful initially, you will be fine.\n\nReyn

Yes I have.  I've met in person some fellow Harry Potter fans that I had originally met on line.  You should be very careful before meeting somebody that you've met on line, though.  If you are a minor I would make sure that you have an adult present at the meeting.  I would also suggest running a background check on this person to make sure that they are who they claim to be and that their intentions are honorable.  Too many people are hurt and even murdered by meeting those that they believed that they really "knew" and even "loved" on line.
