okay so this is really important!
im not used to guys liking me
im 16 and never been on a date or kissed or anything
so this guy on myspace that lives about 20 minutes away from me added me and he didnt talk to me for like a month but he did about 40 minuts ago and we were talking and now he wants to go to a movie with me. i think hes cute, but i dont know him so im not sure if i like him. and hes 5'6 and im 5'9 and im not height shallow i just like the idea of dating a guy whos my hight but i think thats the least of my worries. my parents would freak if they thought that i was gonna go hang w/ a guy i dont know. my best friends said that they wouldnt let me go alone, just incase something happens, i dont think hes a dirty old man, but you can never be too careful. i dont want to say no and him think im not interested b/c i am, im just scared b/c things like this dont happen to girls like me. i really want some advice on this, i have no idea what to do. sorry this was so long but im like freaking out here!
But first I would talk to him about this, tell him how you feel. Tell him you dont feel comfortable going alone to meet him. Tell him how you feel and if he gets mad or anything then honestly..maybe hes not who he says he is.
test this. tell him. and if he understands, when you go to meet him bring a friend or two, it will most likely make you feel better while this is going on.

just be careful. tere are the guys out there with no ill intentions but there are some who do have a nasty mentality. like your friends advice, don't go alone, but if you are intersted, check it out. make sure it's a public place with a lot of people.

icey0990 answered Wednesday June 27 2007, 1:00 am: I have been dating my bf for over a year and this is EXACTLY how we got together! At the time he lived 30 mins away and we never talked..we were just random myspace friends. he responded to a bulliten i posted saying "anyone wana hang out?" <<i never post dumb bullitens like that..maybe it was fate? hmm.lol>> but anyway, he responded, we gott talking for about a week and met up. Since then we have been crazy about each other!
When i first met him i was with friends..if you meet this boy dont go alone! Definately dont worry about the height thing..all that matters is how much you guys connect with each other. Yes, this can be dangerous..but im also saying it could be a great opportunity to meet a guy who will be great for you! Make plans to meet him somewhere like the mall or the park and go with friends..i hope it goes as well for you as it did for me! Definately inbox me with an update..i really wana know what happens! :)

Best thing to do is to tell him you'd like to get to know him better first by talking to him. Chat to him online - talk to him on the phone if you need to but get to know him better first before agreeing to meet up. If he really does like you then he will appreciate that you are just being careful. Even when you do meet him in person do so in a group or with a friend just to be on the safe side and see how things go from there. There's no reason why you shouldn't play it safe.

If you DO meet him, bring your parent[s] and your friends. Meet in a public place during the day, like a mini-golf place or something. Explain to your parents that he's a friend-of-a-friend [hopefully that's true; I'm sure one of your friends know him] and you'd like to meet him in person, but you want them along for your own safety.
carayotie answered Tuesday June 26 2007, 11:20 pm: Just be honest with him. Say that you wouldn't feel comfortable to be alone with him without some friends because you don't know him. If he gets pissed off at that then you know hes not the one for you :)
