Years before that another online friend was visiting her grandparents that lived in a state near me so she came here too.
The other was a friend from the UK, poor guy got taken to see old Philly! lol
I joined a forum for Muslims in Sydney, and they all met each other.
I've been to their weddings, houses and I live 900km away.
So I'd have met 40+
And others from other sites.
Hell, given the chance I'd meet most of you all.

Half way, or nothing.

I met all my housemates through the Internet (there are 5 of us including me). 3 are former Dashing members - one of which moved here from South Australia - and the other owned a Minecraft server I used to play on.
I'd met all them in person prior though, mainly through local gaming conventions and other shenanigans.
I also know a bunch of other people from the local Pokémon / Nintendo community at conventions and tournaments, these people mainly being from Facebook groups and the Another Castle (formally Aussie Nintendo) forum.
I couldn't give an accurate number but it's probably around 30-50 people or so

Where were they from? Facebook? Dating site?Nebulous said:
So applying for a job online and getting an interview counts too?
I have never met up with anyone from the internet, but would if there was a pretty good on line friendship going on.

I have, since two weeks ago. It was okay actually although it felt strange seeing that person face-to-face for the first time. The person I met was someone I spoke to for a few good months from a social networking site and we may plan to meet each other more times.
Mind you, I'm fed up with some people, especially my mum, talking a lot of baloney of the whole thing. As long as you've met the person from a legitimate source and not some seedy chatroom, you'll be fine.

Let's be honest - meeting someone on a train, through a school, through friends...What's the digfference with meeting someone online? People are people? Seedy or good people can come from either method.
