xXxpinky615xXx answered Tuesday July 26 2005, 2:26 pm: It's extremely dangerous. That's what I think. Online dating is for the people who are extremely desperate for a boyfriend/girlfriend or any other kind of companion. But you don't know if the person is really who they say they are. For all you know it could be some 47 year old pedophile trying to get into your pants. [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]
Nevaeh314 answered Tuesday July 26 2005, 2:24 pm: I think it's a great way to meet new people, but you have to be careful. Don't give out too much personal information until you've seen the other person on a webcam or picture, or talked to them on the phone, (etc...). If you decide to meet, make sure it's in a public place, and have a friend discreetly hang out at the same place just in case you need to make an exit. Otherwise, people have formed wonderful relationships online, and talking is a great way to get to know another person's thoughts and know them emotionally before having a physical relationship.
Hope this helps :)

FrEe2bMe answered Tuesday July 26 2005, 2:06 pm: Welll, I think that with a question like this, everyone is going to have different opinions. Personally, I don't think it's the best idea. I know it sounds like preaching, or like I am acting like a parent, but it is really dangerous. On the internet ANYTHING is possible. I know, if you are already involved with someone online right now, you probably are sure that the guy wouldn't, but chances are he's lying to you. You're young. At 13 you have so much time ahead you to get involved in a real relationship. And even more so, 13 is a great age to start really socializing. You might later regret spending that valuable time sitting at home talking online to a "stranger". During this socializing time, chances are you are going to meet someone. Junior high is filled with cute new boys. The new school year is just around the corner. So, with all that said, I am not saying you shouldn't, but I'm also not saying you should. Just be realy cautious if you are going to. Also, online dating isn't part of the real world. It can kind of warp your mind and make you believe things that realy arern't true. And if the guy is older, make sure that he doesn't suggest for the two of you to do anything you don't want to. Be safe. :) [ FrEe2bMe's advice column | Ask FrEe2bMe A Question ]

clearlypink428 answered Tuesday July 26 2005, 2:03 pm: online DATING is just retarded. meeting people that have things in common with you, and talking to them online is kewl. and i have nothing against it- but meeting people in person, that youve met online, and considering yourself dating is a really stupid idea. you asked- i told. hope i helped in your decision-making.
