Stop Worrying: Dangers of Meeting Online Friends in Real Life

Guest Post by a Reader Zod who also wrote about staying safe on social networking sites.
Personally, I am very grateful to the people I’ve met over the Internet – on using my account to Twitter. With many of them have established a good friendship, occasionally drink coffee, and even welcomed me with open doors when I travel to another city. I have secured jobs in the city through my participation in social networks, and above all, I have benefited from the perspectives of more people. All thanks to convert a click away in a talk face to face.

Stop Worrying: Dangers of Meeting Online
Friends in Real Life

Being sociable on the Internet is easy. How many people do not know which boasts hundreds of online friends, followers on Twitter, contacts in Facebook, etc.? However, the time to take the step to meet these people face to face, some people show a lot of uncertainty. And if not how the Internet? What if it upsets me? What if it’s someone else? Fears and insecurities – some substantiated, some not so – many users assault when it comes to meeting in person people of cyberspace.

However, I am certain that there are some dangers out there, not all are as well intentioned as they seem. Perhaps it’s the experience of the early years of the massification of the Internet, chat rooms crowded and many people impersonating identities, or distorting theirs. Worse still, survive in the collective unconscious cases of pedophiles, stalkers or instigators. And yes, many times you have to hold back, especially with younger people.

However, this fear should not prevent us give the opportunity to meet people online in real life. One way of playing it safe is attending meetings. Investigate in your city when the next. Sometimes they form spontaneously, with a few known by agreeing, and so many are organized in advance to call more people. This itself is very important that once you’re there, you interact. There is nothing more contradictory than the life of the party in Twitter be a complete introvert in vivo. Courage!

Perhaps the easiest way to lose your fear is be daring. If any contact you have treated you like him, and is within your means geographical contact, what’s the downside? The worst that can happen is that you planted or leave you to waste an afternoon talking with someone. Beyond the stories talked about love of two people who met online (which, incidentally, we all know a couple like that), online socialization is important because it can help for many things, from building networks to discover a good friend again. I, for one, hope that life will take me a day to my hometown, where I have many colleagues with whom I share a cup of coffee or a beer:)
