Hey, just wanted to know your opinion about people getting to know each other through the internet. A friend of mine registered on a website of singles and I registered, too, just for fun - and one guy actually started talking to me, he's really nice and it seems like we have a lot in common.

 

We've been talking for just 4 days now and he already talks about meeting in the future - tomorrow, there's a huge music festival in Vienna for free and we both go there and he suggested to meet.. This is all a bit too fast and it's just SO embarrassing - because in my circle of friends and my family, everyone makes fun of meeting people you found on the web..

 

What do you think?

mhhh ... why don't you just look for him?

you can say hi, if he's cute :) and if he's not cute ... ... :dozey:

 

lol

a really good friend of mine met his girlfriend in a chat room (wasn't even a dating website) and they get along really well and all that.

i think that it might be an option for some people.

but i can't imagine myself meeting someone i know from the internet.

dunno ... it's weird to me but i'm okay with people who are able to deal with that

^ That's it, it's VERY weird to me as well.. I could never understand the people doing that!

 

I lied to my mum, telling her I got in touch with a guy who's a friend of my best friend Julia.. I was too ashamed of telling my mum that I "found" him on the web. I told her that Julia thought we'd fit together and that's why she gave me his e-mail address (which is all made up) - and my mum said "Well, as long as it's not a stupid dating website" -.-

lol coincedence

 

whatever ... just take a look at him and if he seems nice and genuine then give him a chance :)

I don't know.. Doesn't it seem a bit desperate? I feel stupid, lonely and desperate doing this!

nope, not at all.

people who are looking for someone on the internet are not deperate at all.

like my friend. it was all coincedence.

maybe you two are meant to be together .... :D

^ Oh I don't know ^^

The thing is, I have several photos of him and he looks really nice on two and really crappy on all the others :P Which ones should I trust?

mhhh ... well, we all have some pics on which we look awesomely good and ones on which we look like crap :)

so ... i dunno ... post 'em ...

lol

Haha, shall I? I don't know :P

 

Alright, here's the one where he looks *kinda* cute:

 

He's not my type at all.. but looks alright I guess..

he looks okay :nice:

go for it

you don't have to start a relationship.

you can just become friends :nice:

Eigentlich könnten wir hier eh einfach auf Deutsch weiterreden gell :P

 

Well I don't know.. I think I feel too insecure to meet him.. You know, he's already planning the future. Not in a "we're gonna marry one day"-way, but in a "we're gonna spend a lot of time together (as friends)"-way.. He hasn't even met me yet and already thinks about things we can do together.. That's simply all too fast! Especially meeting him at this big festival with so many people, and this soon.. maybe I should wait a bit and meet him in a comfortable coffee shop a bit later or something like that!?

ja,okay ... meinetwegen :)

 

also, wenn er gleich ankommt mit :"wir können ja das und das zusammen machen",obwohl ihr euch erst seit 4 tagen kennt, isses scho iregndwie komisch ... O.o

vielleicht ist er halt nur auf der suche nach einer seelenverwandten (schließlich habt ihr ja viel gemeinsam!)

Gehst du alleine auf dieses festival?

wenn ihr jeweils mit euren freunden unterwegs seid, dann isses bestimmt halb so schlimm

(außerdem kann man sich bei einem festival leicht aus den augen verlieren [falls er ne null sein sollte ;)])

 

 

was ist das eigentlich für'n festival? st gallen?

Nein, ist das Donauinselfest - an der Donau gibts viele verschiedene "Inseln" und Bühnen mit extrem vielen Bands..

 

Naja, das Problem ist, dass er dort nur alleine hingegangen wär, ich kenn eigentlich sonst auch niemanden der mitgehen würde.. Weiß nicht.. Ich bin einfach zu unsicher, es ist einfach zu SCHNELL.. Aber du hast Recht, aus den Augen kann ich ihn dort sicher leicht verlieren ;)

ja, also ein einfaches :"ich muss mal kurz für kleine königstiger" langt da scho ... he he

aber das is gemein

wenn er eh in deiner nähe irgendwo wohnt, dann isses schon besser sich in ner ruhigeren gegend zu treffen. bei nem festival weiß man nie wie's endet und so

^ Eben.. Ach, ist es zu viel verlangt, irgendwo PERSÖNLICH einen Jungen kennenzulernen, sich mit ihm zu unterhalten und DANN ein Treffen zu arrangieren? Ich will das nicht auf diese Art, mir wäre das ewig lang peinlich.. :(

stimmt schon.

via internet isses zwar einfacher bestimmte dinge zu sagen, aber der person dann gegenüber zu stehen is urpeinlich. das zwischending von beidem ist wohl das telefon. :)

 

irgendwie sieht das bild total professionell aus.

modelt er?

Nein er modelt nicht.. Die anderen Fotos sehen auch bei weitem nicht so gut aus, scheint ein Glückstreffer zu sein :P

 

Ohgott.. wenn ich mir die anderen Fotos jetzt so anschaue.. VERDAMMT, das war ein Glückstreffer ^^ Der schafft es nie wieder, so gut auszusehen wie auf dem einen Foto :P

lol ...

wenn er wirklich so schlimm ist ... dann solltest du ihn vielleicht gar net treffen (auch wenn du ne soziale ader hast ;) )

Ja ich denks mir auch.. ich lass es besser.. lass ich halt mal meine asoziale Ader raus :P

English! :laugh4: Just kidding :p

 

I also think that dating websites are for desperate people. I'm not sure if I would be able to actually meet up with anyone from the net:thinking: unless they invite me to a Coldplay concert :idea2: :laugh4: well I would have to think that more than twice:thinking: but I do agree that it seems a bit too fast with this guy you just met. If he doesn't know what you look like then I guess go to the festival and if you bump into him pretend you are someone else? :idea2: (just to see what he really is like) maybe you should wait.. I would wait. You just met him 4 days ago and wants to meet up already? he seems the one to be desperate.

I know two very good friends of mine from the internet. First we just chatted on MSN, but it didn't take that much time till we actually met. She invited me and we had a brilliant time and since then we're really good friends.

 

I don't know about realtionships, don't think this could ever happen to me, but you never know.

Well it's a bit different, no? For a girl and girl?

Yeah of course it is. I can't imagine finding a boyfriend in the internet.

 

I don't go to dating homepages and such, but it's not differnt to advertisments in newspapers. I wouldn't write to any of them either, but it's just a more modern way of that of that I suppose.

If you meet him bring a gun just incase.

If you meet him bring a gun just incase.

 

Haha meeting in a place where many other people are would be recommendable I suppose.
