Yeah it can work. I met some girl on Habbo and found out she lived by me, went out with her for about 3 months

And remember kids, when meeting up with people on the internet always carry the following items:

Rape Alarm
Condom
Teddy bear (might get kidnapped so might aswell bring a cuddly toy)
Knife
Pepperspray
Mobile phone
Your mum

Not bad, but the knife? maybe just the pepperspray


EDIT: why bring mum with your comdoms :s


unless you want 3some ;/

Very wrong.
Unless your desperate..

I suppose its ok meeting someone on the internet then meeting if you know their genuine but having a relationship that is purely internet based is just pointless really.

Online relationships are fine, I prefer it between when they are adults rather than children.

Also I find doing it over habbo is kind of sad.

If your on something like msn, you get to know them and meet them.. sure it could work

I prefer dating in real life however, because you never really know what the person at the other end of the internet is really like.

I think you can learn more about a person online anyway. Because you don't spend most of your time staring and you have unlimited resources, you can find out what they like and share interests by finding links etc to pages online.

I personally never "fall in love" with anyone purely due to their looks, because I know too many good looking people who have the personalities of a grumpy rock. On that basis, I would much rather have a real relationship with someone who I have got to know irl than an online relationship, but meeting someone online is no different to meeting them in a bar so I suppose it could work.

Interesting question.

I've just about got the money together to see the girl I met on the internet, Kadie. We've been talking about 4 months and we're going to be spending Christmas together, I don't see anything wrong with that.
