Internet dating.....time to meet and I am scared!?

Ok, so I have been talking to this guy for a couple of weeks now we met on a dating website and we just clicked like no one I have ever clicked with before. The first night I chatted to him was via MSN and we messaged for nearly 9 hours! On the phone we speak for hours too, we have exchanged photos and My Spaces/Facebooks etc and we just have so much in common. What I am worried about is that I think he might think I am so much prettier in my pictures etc than in real life. I used to be so confident but recently I seem to lack in this. He says he is not into looks if the brains are missing and as much as I am not a dog (I do consider myself attractive but not model like by any claim) I am so scared he will just think - no thanks! Also, his lifestyle is so different to mine he has a really social job and used to play premier league football too so he know all these high profile people and to be honest it terrifies me. How can I overcome these stupid panics and worries????

Internet dating.....time to meet and I am scared!?
trust me he puts his pants on one leg at a time just like you do and everybody else in the world, hey you have it whipped already you both converse well that is a big must. He is probably gonna think you are even prettier than your picture and they do not do you justice. Girlfriend get that confidence back up and running. Look at yourself int he mirror and say I love you because you are me and I am secure in my own body and I have nothing to hide only plenty to give and hey if it doesn't work out who's loss HIS!! but I am sure it isn't gonna go like that he has a few jitters himself. I have been thinking about the online thing so let me know how it works for you best of luck.....Don't be shy now

Reply:Take it one step at a time. Don't rush into things and still be careful--even though he seems to be "clicking" with you, there's a chance he might be exaggerating or even misleading you... you have to remember that all you really know about him is what he's shown and told you. When you meet, you should be meeting at a public place and have separate cars when you go places. Keep the first date kind of casual and move it up a notch if it goes well. Chances are, it'll be just fine and you'll both be great together so long as you were both honest.
Reply:Just arrange to meet at a coffee shop, no pressure, just to say hello.
Reply:BREATHE If he doesnt like u f*ck him. Always remember when u get nervous about it and as far as u know he likes you for your personality already so ur movin in the right direction....also i should suggest a different method of dating with the rise of rapes, a molestations, and unfortunately murders stemming online meetings its totally not a real safe idea. HOWEVER, u seem to know him well enough i feel comfortable about supporting that All that being said allow me to now address your question. When your feeling Anxiety take a moment to BREATHE nice and steady count backwards slowly and ground yourself as for the high profile people their the same as anyone else and if they dont like u f*ck them too good luck

Reply:chances are he is on here asking the same question to others, keep faith in yourself, be yourself %26amp; i'm sure you won't go wrong, just be carefull, it's unfortunatley an uneasy world out there, if he doesn't accept you for you, then at least you know that your better than he is %26amp; it won't be long before your having a similar experience that you will be more prepared for
Reply:Look - either all the elements are right - or they're not - niether of you will be able to fake it - its a good reality check as the internet stuff is a bit hyped...and bubbles CAN burst in reality - but if it does - so what???





There are plenty more fish / nice guys / and if he's not for you - better guys!!!!





And why should you be so worried about what he thinks of YOUR looks....aren't you worried that YOU could meet HIM and that spark of attraction not be there???





I'd worry about that more if I were you! lol
Reply:By remembering that if he's that interested in what you look like then everything so far has been built on a lie %26amp; you don't want someone like that anyway!





Be confident girl - looks are influenced by confidence, a smile, a sure conversation and a little flirting - go %26amp; KNOCK HIM DEAD! Remember you ARE gorgeous and he will see that!





Good luck!
Reply:don't be scared at all! I met a guy off of myspace...and we met about a week later. We're now "together"...and have been for like to weeks. Its scary at first, yes, but the guy may scared too. Just take it easy and enjoy his company. If he really wants to meet you, he'll be too excited to think about anything else. And there's more to a person than just looks. Most likely if he's on the internet looking for a friend or relationship, he's looking for love or a long lasting companion, not a beauty queen. Just be yourself I'm sure it would end up great!
Reply:OMG!


Lying Prat warning!!!!!!!!


So he used to play premier league football ?


He has a "really social job"?

TAKE A MATE WHEN YOU GO TO MEET HIM!!!!


PLEASE!
Reply:this is a wind up question surely ?








sounds like hes full of it with his big life story ...lmao and your a bit thick after two weeks and your meeting him and believe him








alarm bells








your worries on him liking you will go the minuet you meet (if he shows) when you realise he was talking bottom and he lives in caravan and is living of the state or something





then you may have new worries if hes a nut.
Reply:You cant....plus, you may want 2 bring someone with you when you meet this guy. You don't know if he's safe.
Reply:Just be yourself. If you were confident before, it's still there somewhere. Also, make sure for a while you're only going to places with a lot of people (coffee shops, restaurants, bars, etc) because you never know if he's a psycho. A lot of people you meet on the Internet are these days. Don't go anywhere that's not reasonably crowded, and don't take him to your place, because if he's nuts you don't want him to know where you live.


Good luck!
Reply:Just be yourself and stop worrying so much. That's why you guys are meeting up to finally see each other in the real world to see who you guys really are. Anyway, just relax because I doubt he cares too much about how you look anyway. He already is interested in who you are and is anxious to meet up with you.
Reply:Shelley, don't worry about this. What if he isn't as special 'looking' as you would like? Besides, you've talked to this guy, you know a bit about him. All you have to do now is to meet this guy. Meet publicly, of course, take some friends. And above all, make it on your terms, your rules. Meet for a short time, a cup of coffee, like someone here already mentioned, and just stay for 30 mins. You will know as soon as you see the guy if you are attracted to each other then great, but if not, that 's ok too. It sounds as if you may have made a friend. But remember, he's already seen you. But the biggest point is that he's been talking to you all this time, and that's what matters.


Good luck w/ this one.
Reply:Your meeting some guy after a few weeks you met on the internet???? and he says he played premiership football( the perfect ploy), i don't want to spoil the party but i would be very carefull about this guy, you never mentioned your age?? are you quite young?(i bet he is older than you too eh? if so i would NOT meet this guy alone, you have lots in common, of course you do becasue mayby thats the way he wants you to think? don't get me wrong there nothing wrong with meeting someone on the internet but it takes months to gain some one you don't know trust, and also if a guy says he is not into looks is lying, just be carefull and don't meet him alone.





My daughter thought the same when she met a guy online when she met this guy he forced her into sex and stalked her for 5 months, it was not intill this man knocked on my door that she came clean about the whole thing, i called the police and he got 3 years in prison, that's why i have gave you a negitive answer, this man used the same we have lots in common dirty tricks on her too BE CAREFULL 2 weeks is no where near enough time to know someone on the net.
Reply:Just shagg him FFS
Reply:Well, it is normal to be panic and worried in your situation. You are dating someone, and you like this person!!! It is great and beautiful experience for you. Enjoy the meeting. Be yourself, I believe when you are comfortable with youreslf , you are the most beautiful. Trust yourself and make the best of youreslf. Good luck.
Reply:If you are sure that what you know of him is true then tell him that you are a little nervous that you might not be as you put it as pretty as your photo. Arrange to meet him say in a bar where there will be plenty of other people about, tell a friend to be at the same bar at the same time. But don't look for you or you look for her, don't worry about how you look just dress smartly and he will find you.
Reply:Honey if ur hot then ur hot, y should it matter, the guy iz into u. If he wasn't i dont think dat he would waste his time liking u, emailing u and or wanting to meet u. Looks aren't everything u know. just believe in ur self and stay confident I'm sure dat he thinks dat u are pretty, hope dis helps sweetie. = )
Reply:If he doesn't like you the way you are, he's not worth it. Oh by the way, you might want to have someone with you when you go to meet him. Like ur bff or something. I have heard so many stories of people getting killed by their online bf. so be careful, and be yourself. if he doesn't like you, find somebody who does.
Reply:Well, taking advice from a 15 year old who can't figure out if it's advise or advice, won't seem like such a great idea, but i'll let you know how i feel anyways.





If this guy and you are really connecting then quit putting yourself down, obviously he is spending his time on you rather than other people. And if he doesn't think your beautiful then he is wasting his time. Looks don't matter and he should keep his word. It's okay to be nervous.





By the way, you don't have to look like a model to be pretty. I just wish people could see what you look like by your inner beauty, but unfortunatly that's not the way it works.





I'm sure you beautiful, and if he doesn't absolutly fall head over heals for you when he sees you, then he isn't worth your time.
