okay so here is the jist of things. I knwo this really great guy from gaia...of course. We have been great friends for over two months. We met through my sister when they became friends...I just decided to pm and we hit it off right off the bat. Well my sister is getting married at the end of this month and she said I could invite him...we live like four states(USA) apart and he is planning on flying up here for the wedding and staying for a week. It would be the first time we would meet and I am so nervous! Do you have any thoughts...pointers? About what I should do or just an opinion of the whole situation!

Well, there are a couple questions that come to mind here:
*CAUTIONS & QUESTIONS* Do you know this guy at all? Do you know him personally? Have you seen pictures of each other? (Shock is a killer) Do you know he's who he says he is? Where will he be staying? Did you completely prepare for a visitor? If you can answer at least 5 of these, I'd say go for it.

Yes to all of them...We have been planning for over a month!

Then go for it. You know he's for real, you know you like him online. And above all else, you know that you want to meet him wink

I'm going to have to go with Kino on this one, though there are a few things I'd like to add. Be prepared that it might not be quite everything that you've imagined. Since your sister is old enough to get married, I think it's safe to assume you are old enough to know what you are doing too. This week will probably determine if he's just an online fling or if this relationship could actually work in reality. Also, make sure you do everything you want during this short time. You don't want to wave good buy at the airport and think "I should've done [insert something here], but now it's too late". Think this trough carefully and try to get some perspective. Is this really what you want?

'Bout the "I should've done [insert something here], but now it's too late" thingy, let me tell you one thing: Be absolutely god damn sure if you're gonna do anything at all. Don't do anything (C'mon, you're 16, you're not a child anymore) with him unless you're sure. Might sound like I'm implying something, and quite frankly, I am. Don't let him say "We might never meet again" or something like that. Doing stuff you DON'T want is a lot worse than not doing stuff you DO want. Nothing personally. I don't think you're that kind of girl at all.

be careful thats all i have to say. my good friend met up with a guy she met online and ended up geting raped and pregnant. i'm not saying this to be blunt...i just dont want that to happen to somebody else. i was with her the whole time, and i shared the emotional pain with her, so i can almost say i know what its like. so, just be careful. i'd say if you can answer those questions from the first post, you will be ok. but keep your eyes open.

and.. umm.. be prepared for a long distance relationship if you do happen to date. It's quite different when you are in friends status and bf/gf status. You will tend to expect more from each other.. or at least that's just me. whee

from experience, at least one of you will be extremely nervous. if he isn't talking, be kind and understand that it's not becuase he doesn't like you- just the opposite. he's scared out of his mind that he'll say something to lose you. he's never met you irl, and therefore doesn't know how to act in person, doesn't know how cuddly you may or may not be, so he may be reluctant to touch in the beginning.
or, you may feel that way, in which case i don't know what to tell you because i haven't gotten past that yet
