As long as you are safe about it, it can be alot of fun! Have your list of 30 questions and post your requirements flat out. You don't need to settle for anything other than what you want! Only answer the ones who obviously don't ignore your requirements...like a 23 year old when you say over 40 LOL. Print out emails and re-ask questions...if they don't match, block him. If he presses for contact info...block him. Don't give away anything about you, but collect info he offers. You can reverse lookup his address if he gives you a phone number for home or work. You can get a satelite view of his house and check the internet for any restraining orders or legal problems. You can check the status of divorce and custody. Once you get the right answer to your questions and the web search pans out, pick a restaurant,give your printed emails to a friend and where and when you are meeting,and have them call about 454 mins into the date...If if is going bad, then you can say it's a kid emergency. Don't let them meet the kids until you are sure. I met my husband online at the beginning of Sept, met him at the end of Sept, got engaged in November and married in February. We are getting ready for year 2 in a week and it is the best!!! My advice is wait until you WANT someone and not NEED someone...Good luck to everyone out there!!!!!
