Meet in person when you feel comfortable about the idea, which takes time. The advantage of coming to know each other via the Internet originates from the fact that you have a possibility of collecting a real wealth of the information gradually. Don't be afraid to or refrain from asking for details due to the awkward feeling of false tactfulness, for the details are really precious, and it is exactly the details that allow you to come to understand and perceive your partner at the other end perfectly well and to make your own conclusions provided you are not completely deprived of some elementary insight and common sense. Don't hurry and don't accelerate the events, for there's really too little sense of meeting in person a complete stranger. It takes at least a couple of months of intense enough communication, with many questions asked and answers received, and topics elaborated upon before both of you start perceiving that you have passed successfully and found yourself well ahead of what Psychologists call the period of "initial discoveries", existing in any relationship.
Remember, though, that you aren't obliged to meet anyone in person regardless of the extent of intimacy your have developed in course of your on-line exchange. And even if you did make your mind to meet in person, your right to change your mind always remains there. Pay attention to manifestations of anger, displays of frustration, affording disrespectful comments or attempts to either control or exert pressure upon you. Should you notice that your virtual date provides you inconsistent information about their age, appearance, marital status, career, interests and hobbies, physical appearance, refuses to speak to you over the phone, provides you elusive answers to your direct questions (at the advanced stage of your on-line relationship), avoids telling you about their friends, family members or co-workers, all those should be regarded as valid motive for your strong doubts.
Meet in person safely. Should your on-line meeting has occurred through an on-line dating, matchmaking, or marriage agency whose credibility you have no reason to question, insist upon their inter mediation when it comes to the "live" stage of your coming to know each other. Don't hesitate to take this extra caution, if your meeting in person takes place outside your own place, to speak nothing of a different country.
So much said, anyway, meeting and starting relationship through the Internet keeps gaining even more popularity nowadays. So, the question is: "Should I really better refrain from using this method of looking for a date, to say nothing about life partner?" The answer is:
No!!!Everything is very far away from being as somber as some people might conclude. Yes, cheaters, liars and scammers of all sorts do ply their craft on the World Wide Web too, but you have equal chances of coming across them at "traditional" places like nightclubs, offline dating services, parties or even find them sitting opposite you at the same table at your favorite local cafe, where you drop in to have a cup of coffe during your day break from job. The truth is that irrespectively of the place you meet and come to know someone, dating has never been risk free. But being equipped with just a little bit of caution will minimize your risk in love affairs, and if you are able to follow these perfectly simple rules described at the pages of this web site, then allow us to encourage you and wish Good luck for you! :-) < previous
