Strange Relationship?

Okay, this is going to sound really strange, probably weird. There's this girl, she lives in the same city as I do. We met online on a social networking site where she found me. We started writing on each other's wall (scrapbook). Eventually we added each other to messenger's buddy list. After a few weeks of chatting online, we exchanged phone numbers. There is no day now when we don't talk to each other on phone, sometimes for hours. We connect, relate to each other and everything, but we've never met.


We've arranged to meet up next week. Where do you think this is going? Is it safe? Is it going to work? What should I do to make it work, coz meeting up someone in person can be very different from chatting on phone. And what gift should I get her the day we meet, its a special occasion.

Strange Relationship?
dress up in a nice striped shirt and whatever pants u want. it may not be safe. maybe it is though. you never know. if she sounds normal on the phone,most likely she is. get her chocolates or flowers,
Reply:Bring her flowers, it can work, but I have done the on line dating thing, connected REALLY well over the phone and then found that there was nothing there when we met in person.


A nice bouquet of mixed flowers would be a good idea.


Good luck!
Reply:you are right, it does sound strange. if you know something about her, then sure go out with her, but if you don't know anything about her, it could be dangerous. try not to show that you are nervous. just kind of do the things that you would do on the phone. if you are going to give her something, give her a simple gift. maybe a flower, or a homemade cd. idk. but you've gotta relax and act natural around her.
Reply:Doesnt sound strange at all, I think it will be fine - meet in a fairly crowded place and just see how you get on. I did the same thing a few years ago and met about 8 women in the course of three weeks!! I ended up marrying one of them. We talked on the phone and IM'd one another for a while before we met although some of the ladies weren't as cautious and we met without speaking first. Dont take a gift - its making too much of the event I think - if you have chatted happily on the phone you shouldnt have any problems face to face - enjoy and relax, there is nothing to worry about.
Reply:Teddybear, cookies or flowers.


Don't worry yourself everything will be okay just be yourself when you meet her and everything should work out.
Reply:Bring the ring. This one sounds like the real thing!
Reply:dude....1st of dont give her anything more than a flower! no special gifts for someone you have known through almost only anonymous ways...





met her for something like dinner, where you can talk and look into each others eyes...but have something really fun prgrammed afterwards incase the night goes better than you can imagine...like going to a club and dancing...a great way to break the ice you know.
Reply:bunch of roses would do, sweety.. :)
Reply:some nice flowers would be nice





go meet her and see what happens, what is the worst that can happen
Reply:I'm not sure how safe meeting someone in person is when you've only ever spoken over the phone and whatnot. I'm not saying it isn't safe, but you never know in this day and age. If you feel this could result in a potential relationship, then go for it. It could work out but both of you have to put the effort in equally. I would bring a simple gift, maybe a small bouquet of flowers (NOT roses) or a nice assortment of chocolates. Keep it simple, be safe and good luck. Also, if you're still unsure, there are web sites where you can run a background check on someone to see if they have a criminal record. I know it sounds extreme, but isn't it worth the peace of mind?
Reply:bring her flowers or chocolate. if you really like her, bake her something, she might like you even better for that.


internet dating is always kind of iffy. i would say just be on alert or something, because she might end up being way, way older than you.


p.s. wear good clothes and take a shower before you go
Reply:flowers
Reply:You can take her flowers for a nice gift, or a less cliche gift would be a book of some sort that you really like...and just tell her it's your favorite and you'd like her to read it so you guys can talk about it together. Obviously you want to meet in a public place, like a coffee house or a restaurant. Getting a drink is always a good choice because in the event that things are awkward you can both just leave after a drink or so, but if they're going well you can get a table and have dinner.


If talking on the phone and online has turned out so well, just be yourself and I'm sure that everything will fall into place.
Reply:Meet in a busy public place.. and be yourself..that's why she likes you in the first place... Make sure you pay for dinner or drinks or whatever...if you believe in that... have fun and good luck
Reply:Go with it....
Reply:It depends on how comfortable you are with the situation... If your comfortable but nervous, go for it.. But in a pulic place... Bring her some colorful roses...Flowers are okay.. But colorful roses are not expensive and they brighten up a girls day.......
Reply:Well you never know where true friends or love can be found, so go meet her with a good attitude and a great smile.


A public place would be better...just in case. And when you're with her ask and talk about the things she already told you in the chat, as there's a good chance that someone could play Cyrano and send a different person!


That's just to be sure, and once you're sure she's who she says she is then try to find the good things in her (this time in person) and you're on your way!


Yes, flowers are always a great gift.


A good half a dozen of different coloured flowers that suggest: I'm very exited to know you, I know this is weird but I also know this can turn to be great!





Good Luck!
Reply:Exotic flowers (for something different)


and meet in a public place...like Starbucks so you all don't feel unsafe. :)





Good Luck!
Reply:Just grab some italian food and give her some flowers. Other than that, it's like meeting anybody else! Hope she's as cute as her avatar! (lol)
Reply:I have done the on line dating thing for a while now, and as long as you (and she) have been open and honest about yourselves from the beginning you have the opportunity to build a real lasting relationship. Don't be nervous just be yourself.


A single rose is always a good, safe choice for a nice relatively inexpensive gift for someone your meeting for the 1st time. If you are trying to impress then go for jewelry - a nice necklace %26amp; earing set is a good choice.
Reply:i think she really wants to meet you its prolly safe if you have been talking on the phone alot just in case i would have some one trail kinda behind you to where they dont look like their following you but they can jump in whenever it will prolly work jewelry is always good to get her or chocolate or flowers always take your cell
Reply:I had a similar thing happen to me. She said she was a nurse and everytime we were supposed to meet she never shoed. One day a guy showed up in her place and we had coffe and talked about her. To make along dtory short it turned out the guy was really her. The voice really thru me. I had spent hours sometimes all night talking to "her" and was really hurt.


This may not (I hope) be what's going on with your lady. Maybe she is busy or just shy. Play it safe and show up. I suggest bringing a single flower (not a rose) mabe a carnation and a sweet card. But show up if not you will always wonder, Good luck my friend I hope evrything works out for the best :)
Reply:Well who knows if it will work you have to MEET her first! Just be cool and dont show her that your nervous. Bring her some flowers that would be very NICE!!





Good Luck!
