But I'd just like peoples opinions because I'm not sure whether to suggest it or not, we nearly met up once before but I chickened out and stood him up, he said he was a but upset but not angry because he really wanted to meet me and has done for ages, just for coffee btw, he says it's all up to me if I want to meet up any time. What do you think?

An online fling with a 42 year old man...something´s fishy.
You have to ask yourself: what would a 42 year old man want from an 18 year old girl? You're young, which means you probably look better than most women his age. You're young which means he has a ton of life experience on you and plenty of opportunities to manipulate you. You might think you're more mature than other 18 year olds, but in reality, you cannot beat him. Not by a long shot.
Look, I understand that older men can be very intriguing and exciting. But more often than not they pick someone like you because you're naive.
I am not against age gaps. I can understand falling for an older guy. But I will always be wary of it, especially when the guy is so much older and the girl is so young. You have a huge disadvantage here.

i would actually prefer that you met a nice guy closer to your own age though. you would have more in common. would you not like to do that ?. good luck with whatever you decide to do, and remember, please stay safe, and dont meet this man alone unless you are 100 per cent sure he is genuine . for all you know, he could be married, in a relationship, or a psycho !.

If you are going to meet him I would tell a few friends were your going and have a fully charged phone on you and don't go off anywhere with him for the first time. Completely up to you, Good luck to you both and I hope your relationship blossoms! xx

I think you should meet up with him. Age is only a number. Besides he can teach you a whole lot of things about sex. So have fun.

 yeah, it should be okay, but be careful and it´d be better to bring a friend with you just incase.
