Is it normal to share your whole life with a stranger?

13 Comments

Soo, i met this guy on omegle(i used the website to sometimes talk to strangers when i was feeling extra lonely) and he was really nice we traded snapchat and then a few weeks later numbers. I thought at that time fuck it, i might aswell tell this guy everything thats on my heart, he will probably be gone in no time as all ppl i met online did in the past. Now the thing is that three months have passed and we still chat daily, make phone calls and watch videos together and so on.. i realllyy like him, but fear that i told him too much about me as i never met this dude in reality and we all know that sometimes ppl are scary and crazy and what not. He is 24 and im 19 and we both live in Germany and agreed to someday meet each other, but sometimes i still get creeped out at the thought to meet him. i dont know how im feeling its weird. I would love to know what someone else thinks about this

    If you meet him, you'll better start it easy at a public spot, have a nice walk and grab a coffee and see how things go and feel. If he lives to far.. that sucks. and also there is tinder for people from closer..
    why not giving it a shot. You never know

    PS fellow German here

    One of the most classic ways for introverts or guarded people to meet. Normally people may struggle to connect with others IRL for various reasons. Maybe they come on too strong or too soon or drain your energy and you run away too easily or keep everybody at an arm's length etc

    But someone on the internet? You think "Oh it's anonymous" or "Nothing will happen" or "They dont know anyone I know. It doesnt matter what I share" and without knowing you let your guard down and BAM you're many feet under the ground if you were under the impact of the asteroid which wiped out almost all dinosaurs. Massive waves and debris flying outwards in all directions and both of them cant wait to meet each other which is fine, but like others said make sure you meet in public unless you know the person super well. You never know if these things can genuinely develop into fossils which could explain a lot of details about the cataclysmic event and even help NASA predict and prevent future earth-asteroid collisions.

    It can be easier to share our lives with strangers online sometimes, we feel a bit detached from social conventions and can speak without our normal inhibitions. I’ve had some deep conversions on Omegle with strangers I never saw again.

    When it comes to meeting in real life (and I cannot stress this enough) trust your intuition. Remember you’re never obligated to meet him or anyone else from the internet in real life. If you find the idea uncomfortable, don’t do it. If you get a bad feeling, don’t do it. Any reasonable guy will understand why a younger woman he met through Omegle doesn’t want to meet up.

    If you do want to meet him arrange it in a public place in the day time, tell at least two people where you’re going and keep them updated. Some online friendships develop into wonderful real life ones, but you should always prioritise your safety and, as I said, trust your intuition.

    Others probably have experienced something similar to you.

        Well it’s quite impressive. Anyway, is this a friend you made on Omegle or a partner?

          We are definitely friends, I also would find it weird to have a relationship with him as he is living too far away to visit regularly

              Nah, he is not strange at all. I think its what my parents want me to think about strangers and so on that is sometimes getting in my head.
