Im 18, hes 22. I met him on facebook and my instincts tell me he's a good guy. We talk on the phone all the time and it feels real. He's told me a lot of negatives about himself and I don't sugarcoat it for him either. Physically he's average looking, a little chubby, and his voice matches the pics. He doesn't pressue me into anything, i was the one who gave him my number and he hasn't pressued me into meeting him. I believe he's honest with me and I want to meet him in the future. My concerns are safety if my instincts turn out be wrong and if not how to tell my parents about him. Not only because I met him online, but the age diff. & his diff. religion & culture. Anyone have advice or a postive online dating experience? Because every man you meet online can't be a ****** or psychopath. Any guidance would help, i have real feelings for this guy. Thanks
also to clarify, i wasn't looking for love. it started off as strictly friendship.
