So... I'm kind of getting the idea that people on here like to flirt a lot.
Or am I wrong? Wait... never mind... I'm right. I just KNOW it. :wink:

But the question is... have you ever MET someone from here?
And was it better than the online flirting?

    I have people I knew before I joined MFP on my friends list. But they're all women and I don't swing that way, so...

    Most of the friends I have on here are people I already knew in real life... I saw a guy at the gym yesterday and I kept thinking he looked really familiar but I didn't know where I knew him from... it wasn't until after I left that I realized I'd seen him here on the forums! I haven't 'met' anyone though...

    I'm also curious... if you haven't... why not? Scary? Just haven't had an opportunity?

    Maybe both... I go through phases where I might get on the boards every day for a week and then not again for a month... and I've never really had a private conversation with anyone that I don't know. As for the scary part... a little, yeah. I've never been on a dating site either... I realize it's a normal thing now and not taboo like it used to be... I'm not saying I never would... just haven't yet.

    If Mine and Mud7urtle's workout schedule were similar, I would prolly run into him at the gym....
    But I don't have anyone else on my FL in my area.

    I would love to, I haven't but I think it would be great encouragement, then again I live in NZ and there seems to be a lack of kiwis.

    Sure. I have visited one of the people on my FL, even though we live on opposite sides of the country. We became friends via a completely different forum many years ago and have caught up in person many times over years. She is as awesome in rl as she is online, so why not.

    I would be happy to meet most of the people on my friends list in person! Well those whose newsfeeds I haven't hidden due to overly needy posts.

    I've met five in person. Not because anyone was flirting, just becasue we happened to be in the same place for some reason or another. Everyone I've met in person was fun to hang out with.
