Meeting a Lit member in person

Plan to. One will hopefully visit me next year in an European city close enough to manage with some pre-planning, two I will include when traveling for my research anyhow. I've met people from the internet forever, many offline friendships I cherish started online. I am very fond of my friends, wherever I may have met them first.

Does the place of meeting really matter that much? Your similarities may be an interest in politics, blues music, the old ethernet or some shared kink or suffering, but you still build an emotional connection and friendship from there.

Obviously one should always be safe and not meet with someone they don't know without some common sense. But the whole stranger danger hysteria is not really a thing in Europe.

Not to expect. But quietly hoping, and mentally ready to cross that line? Or would you ONLY meet if you knew the attraction wasn't there to be a temptation in the first place?
Oh.. ??
I think from here on out? I'd best be prepared to cross the line
I punished an old lover for a week by ruling out sex. Bad decision in hind sight though, I think we would have become entangled has more gone on.
How about you ?
There certainly has to be a friendship for a meeting to be worthwhile

Came very close to meeting someone here a long time ago. We were both married. I chickened out. We continued to have an online relationship for a few months until I stopped it trying to focus on saving my marriage. Probably one of the biggest regrets in my life was walking away from having any contact with her. I still think about her and what that meeting might have been.
 
From online, yes, but Lit specifically, no. Hope springs eternal though, and this is certainly one of my fondest hopes...
