Hey Teen Forumz, well ive been talking to a girl who added me on facebook for a week now, we seem to get along really well, and have alot in common, but we've never actually met in person, i think she was kinda hinting that we should meet, and i would like too, but im a bit worried it'l just be awkward. Anyway, where could i invite her and how could i make it less awkward for a first time meeting?

You've known her for a week, she could be anyone. Wait much longer before meeting.

I've spoke to her a lot, she doesn't seen some freak lol. I've spoke to people for a while before thinking i should eventually meet them, and its never worked out, so i thought why not try another approach?

I agree a week is wayyy too short.

Even just for friends that's ridiculous. Just get to know each other if you like each other and like talking there's no rush for irl things.

like for me atm I wasn't planning on dating anytime soon, let alone online but Ive met someone and we may possibly be heading that way. We make each other happy, so who's to say we shouldn't give it a go? we're not in control of how we find love or where we meet people. Just gotta 'go with it'

So just enjoy being friends and wait a bit. It probably would be less awkward if you knew each other longer as well.

Little white flowers will never awaken you, not when the cold depths have all but overtaken you.

Dearest, The days are all so long,
and in the shadows I spend them all.
My heart and I long for slumber.
Slumber I'm caressing you, I bless your touch, I lust for you.
Slumber you are not a dream, Not as much as you seem.

I have to agree that meeting after just one week is not a very good idea. It could end up badly, even if you are pretty sure that she is who she says she is. I strongly advise against a meeting at this point. However, if you must meet (that is your decision), I can give you some advice. First, make sure that you tell someone that you know if real life where you'll be and what you're doing and all that jazz. Make sure you meet somewhere public where there will be a lot of people and make sure you won't be alone for any amount of time. If you want to be really cautious, bring a friend to watch you from a distance and make sure nothing bad happens. Those are basic safety issues that are a must.

Otherwise, just be yourself. Do something fun that you both like to do. The best way to avoid awkwardness is to make sure that you're comfortable just talking with the person about whatever. The more you think about what you're going to do/say, the more awkward it will be. Just be yourself, stay safe, and you should be fine.
