Will be meeting a girl I met online. So so nervous. [UPDATED]

Here's what you do:

Call her from a pay phone and set up a meeting place and time in a semi-busy public place with big windows (coffee shop is great). Tell her to wear something identifiable. Show up 5-10 minutes late and just do a walk by of the place and see if you can pick her out. If she's an [kelso] Uggo [/kelso], keep on walking, add her to your ignore lists in your IM programs and add her to your spam list in your email filter. She won't have your number at all because you called from a pay phone (unless you've already given it to her of course), so you'll be safe.
 
Make sure you can take care after yourself.

Ring her set a time to meet. Meet if you like good stuff. She *may* not be a *fat* girl. I met a girl once on the net years ago and she was good looking. I had seen a pic of her before and she looked much better in person. A lot of guys were staring at her when we were walking about together. CHECK this out. I also met her parents as we went back to her house to chill. I handled it well. Talked to them, made chit chat they even offered me a lift back home! NOW imagine your self meeting her parents the first time you meet her!

Good luck man and go for it.

btw I mention if you can take care of yourself incase shes a nut or has a friend along you can take care of them.

No man. My gf doesn't go on the net to chill much if ever. Hell man I've only spoken to her about 3 times max on msn and I've known her over 3 years. AND only spoken to her 3 times. Met her through friends at Uni when I was visiting friends.

The girl I was talking about was fit also. Nice hight, great body, personality was good, lots to talk about. She didn't want to go further and she was a bit far on train, at the time no car. The way it goes at times.

Anyway you find time to hook up with girls yet? Meet any?

I've always said to myself its going to be a bit of a mission to hook up with a girl when I get out of Uni and don't have a gf. Even if you do lots of activities like me going in to IT isn't going to help you meeting women. Even more so if you want to go in to some more obscure part of IT. Go in to banking much more girls!

 
Jesus!!!!

More than 200lbs???

Ouch!!!!

My personal rule... A women cannot weight more than 2/3 of my own weight. Me being 190lbs, she can't be more than 126lbs. Anything beyond that and she's probably more than I want to deal with.

To each his own of course...

Maybe for you but for some other members that weight less than you to do a 2/3 rule is just ridiculous.

Especially for those of us in the 140lb range. 🙂

That might well be true...

And since you point that out, I started a thread asking just that question. What do men want in a woman, when it comes to size, height, and weight.

LOL! 😀

That is true!

93lbs? That is a bit light...

Sheesh, how skinny do you have to be to be 140lbs?

I'm 6'1" tall, and I'm not fat at 190lbs. I wear a size 36 and normal large shirts. I think I'd break if I tried to get down to 140lbs! 😀
