A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been talking to this girl online for about 6 months now, and I fancy her quite a bit. Not just because she is pretty, she has a really great personality.

We have exchanged photos and everything, and talk for about an hour each day. Now in a weeks time we have finally arranged to meet each other (don't worry in a shopping centre, and my mate will be "shopping" close by). What I'm worried about though, is that it will be initially really awkward. We talk so much on the computer I'm just scared I'll freeze up when I meet her in person. Can anybody help me out with some suggestions?

Stop worrying so much. You have been talking to this girl for months- you already know her the only thing left to find out is if you both have the chemistry to have a relationship. I have heard that you should do a hard work out just before going to meet her- working out does something to you physiologically that helps your self-confidence. (don't forget the deodorant if you go with this suggestion)

soldolly agony auntIf u have both been truthful to each other while chatting online there should be no problem meeting face to face.I always feel being with the person ur talking to is far easier than phoning or texting because you can talk in much more detail,and you can always tell by facial and body language if the other person is really interested in what you have to say. It may be different for both of you at first but im sure you will soon get over nerves and get on like a house on fire.

O Connor agony auntjust remember that it is the girl you have known for a while that you are meeting - she is not a stranger or anything, she is the girl you know and like. also, you need to realise that she is probably going to be nervous also, but you will both overcome that. im sure that after a while, you will be getting along just like you do online. if you do feel like you will freeze up - then be honest with her wen you meet her ie tell her that you are a little nervous. or say to her 'wow its a little different actually meeting in person" etc etc. let her know that you are a little nervous - this will reassure her, aswell as let her know that you do really like her. also she will appreciate your honesty!

You know each other well. You know that she as a person is great, and she enjoys your company. The physical presence will be different, but you should adjust rather quickly, as it's still the same person you've come to fancy. Just take a deep breath, you'll do fine.
