Dear Miss Emily:

I met this kid on the Internet that lives around me. We found each other by chance on Omegle. He gave me his number, and we've been texting (I'm not using my real number), and we sent each other a picture to show what we look like. Anyway, he keeps saying I know I haven't met you, but I love you and I wish I could hold you right now and stuff like that. He said we should try to meet. Should I go to meet him? Should I bring one or two people with me inc ase something happens? Should I tell him that we shouldn't talk anymore? And I haven't told anyone I've been talking to him, because I don't want to tell people that we met on Omegle.

----------------------Miss Emily's advice-----------------

He's coming on too strong, in my opinion, and that means he might be a tad needy. That, of course, does not mean he's a pervert, or up to no good as some on-line contacts have proved to be the case. If you feel he is worth your effort, tell him the "flowery" words are not what you want to hear, but you have a desire to get to know him better before you commit to meeting. If you do decide to meet him, make it in a public place and, yes, bring a friend, or two with you.
