How Do I Know The Person I'm Corresponding With Is Real Or Not?

U don't i'm affaird, u just have to trust he is who he says he is, which im affaird they often not all they make out to be. I have met people of the net and believe me its not all its cracked up 2 be. Try and find someone without going through the net but if u have to make sure u met him somewhere busy with lots of people so at least u know u will be safe. Just be careful whatever u do

There are good people out there, you're right.  But get them to send you a pic and talking on the phone with him/her..you can tell if they're for real or not.

Let me tell you. I went on a site and met a man. He was the most dishonest person i have ever met in my life. I believe you can never trust a man on the other side of a computer screen. I did not know a lot of things about him till after I met him. He told me he was single. He told me he had not been in a relationship for over 2 years. He told me he made $75,000 a year. None of it was true. I met him and his family stayed for a week and in that week found out he had 3 other girlfriends. One had been to see his family the week before I flew in to stay with him. Pretty sad and I would not trust em.
