SirenaBlusera agony auntFurthermore, not only is it physically dangerous to add strangers, but they could send you dangerous material, such as a virus, spyware, or malicious software that wipes out your files/computer. I wouldn't open ANYTHING that an absolute stranger sends me. There are some really nasty people out there.

I can't believe how many people have answered actually giving you advice on how to chat up some guy you don't know online. I agree with Danielepew and Phoebe Halliwell - it's dangerous, he could be anyone. I'd also like to add that I think it's extremely stupid of you to go around adding strangers. I wonder if your parents know what you get up to online.

If you have any sense you'll delete him (and any other 'cute' strangers you might have added) and only chat to people you know.

Danielepew agony auntI'm a man, and I don't add absolute strangers to my contacts. So I recommend you do the same. You're very young and you could become the pray of somebody.

When I first came to Dear Cupid, one girl your age was being harassed by her gym teacher over her computer. She came here for advice and was told to call the Police. The man was caught, I understand.

Phoebe Halliwell agony auntHey

well, first of all I noted your age group. It is very dangerous to add people you don't know online.

Remember, his profile picture may be cute, but the guy on the chatting to you on the other end could look very very different.

If you added him because you know him from school or somewhere and think he's cute it's a different story. If he's talking to you first he's curious about who you are. My advice to you is be honest. At 13 - 15 you've got YEARS to find love, there's no rush! :)

But seriously, if you've never seen him before and don't know who he is, it's very dangerous and for your own safety PLEASE try not to in the future. There are some nasty people out there online, be safe!

Good luck :)

What can you really say but no you dont. You could always tell him you thought he was cute and thats why you added him, but be carefull if you plan a meeting, just because you've talked and seen photos or webcam doesnt mean you know a person.

tennisstar88 agony auntBe very careful ur very young and I only talked to ppl I knew on MSN. However ur curious to talk to someone else..keep in mind they may not always be who they say they are....Start off with hi, how old are u?...he may ask u where ur from just tell him the state thats all he needs to know nothing more. He asks "Do I know you"? And if he doesnt look familiar a simple "Nope never seen u before" works. Heed my warning! But have fun chatting

A female reader, misspurple United Kingdom +, writes (5 August 2010):

I'm sure lots of people have done this, including me. One thing you shouldn't do is meet up with him on your own no matter what. Where does he say he is from? If he's about your age and from your area i don't see the harm in a meeting but still not on your own. You could say you would just like to meet new people and you have seen his picture and he looks nice and would he like to get to know you? Hope this is a good help :)

Lebanese agony aunthey!

Tell him you know him from a friend! If that's not the case tell him you accidently added him; "mis-spelled" another freind's email address or something of this sort!! it always works;)

If you dont like any of the above options just come clean and tell him "we don't know each other, but i like to get to know you more" or something like this.

good luck!
