Ok so latley ever scince my friend has gotten a computer in her room shes been on it non stop. Shes talking to people she dosent know. Like theres this online chat room and shes on it EVERY night for hours and hours. She even has a boyfrind on there, its really sad and im starting to be scared for her. And latley me and my other friend have been feeling the negitive effects of it by getting blown off. She claims shes too busy becuase of her going to the pool but we know the real reason why. And everytime we would bring it up to her about her not hanging out with us or how much shes on the computer she gets all defensive and gets all pissed at us. does anyone have any advice on this becuase its been a whole almost 2 weeks of summer vacation and she still has yet to hung out with us. anyone have any advice that could help us out becuase we miss her and i just have a feeling something bad is about to happen soon and i dont know what to do..

thankss a lot:]♥ (link)
Okay, first of all you are seeing ALOT of red flags with your friend - cutting off friendships, obsessive computer use, on-line "boyfriend", defensive. These are all signs that she may be being exposed to an on-line predator!! They tell her everything she wants to hear and prey on her weaknesses. The best thing to do - and I don't want to sound all after-school special, but - is to talk to an adult you trust (Her parents if possible). Send her and her parents a link on signs of an on-line predator. If it ends up being a predator, your friend could be in some SERIOUS trouble. Speak up now. Even if it means trouble for your friendship now, it beats her being in serious danger and you losing her permanently.
