Is it worth meeting a man you have been talking to online for 8 months?

Hello, I am a 24 year woman and for the last 8 months I have been talking to a guy online, he is also 24 and lives about 20 miles away. We talk all the time, have things in common and have texted each other. We both live the same distance from London and I thought that would be a good place to meet, as it is nuetral ground and full of alot of people.

What does everyone think?Is it worth meeting a man you have been talking to online for 8 months?

I met my husband that way, so I'd say yes - just use some common sense. Take a friend, or, if no one can go with you, make sure you tell many people where you will be (even a schedule, so that they can trace your steps if needed). Take a cell phone with you. Obviously, don't go anywhere with him where you will be alone with him. Stay out in public with him.



Using common sense tips like these will keep you as safe as possible, in case he's been lying all this time. But like I said, I met my husband online and met him in a big city, and we've been married 11 years now, so who knows what might happen?
Go for it if you don't you will be full of what ifs

if you are not interested after meeting this guy at least you gave it a try

you are doing the right thing meeting in a public place at least you will be safe there

how ever if you do not feel comfortable meeting this guy there might be some thing inside that does not trust him its your choice

good luck
How do you know its a man and that he is 24 - just because he, she or it says so doesn't make it so.

I would be very, very careful - to be honest I wouldn't even think of meeting.
Yes. Why not give it a go. You seem to be clued up enough to not take risks with this. Keep safe and as you said meet in a public place and make sure you meet a few times in public places before taking anything further just to be on the safe side.



Good luck, hope it works out for you.
Never worth it. I agree with user Shizzle1. The internet is a trust risk for meeting up with people. Anybody who tells you, "Yes, no problem" have no sense of safety.
Go to meet , no problem
Yes I think you should meet him. I met my bf online like you I was nervous about it and we met in a public place. Turned out he was a really nice guy and we are together over a year now. Trust your instincts but also just be careful and if your not comfortable with anything then dont do it.
Sure. meet up w/ him, see how you feel then.
