<font color="purple">I always get a little bit frustrated when I hear these stories. I dunno, but to me it just seems like common sense that there is the distinct possibility that people online may not be who they appear, and because of that you should never make arrangement to people that you've met online well, offline. But, there is this one kid in the same grade as me, he's met up with several people that he met online, I just gotta shake my head 'cause he's really playing with fire.

I don't think there is anything wrong with talking to people you don't know online (my parents hate the the thought though) just as long as you don't get too close. Keep the two lives seperated. (and if anything sexual comes up then run like hell lol)

PS, I'm a girl who will be turning 17 in 10 days.
Geez, I feel old </font>
