Today, one of my online friends told me he's bought a plane ticket, so he can come visit me. I've told him multiple times before that I'm uncomfortable with this idea, but he keeps telling me to stop joking, and reminding me that he'll have no other place to stay. FML

For those who care, no, I didn't give him my address, I'm not an idiot. He just knows the city I live in, because I'm sure I've mentioned it during a group chat. He and I are NOT in a relationship in any way, shape, or form. I barely know him. He's had this weird obsession with me for a while. We talk about once every other day, and have two types of conversations. The most common is: 'Hi, how are you? Good? Glad to hear you're good. Have a nice day.' And that's it. The less common and more creepy is him asking: 'Can I buy you stuff? Can I have your address so I can send you stuff? Do you like jewelry? I'm going to come visit you ;)' He doesn't know my real name, nor do I know his. He doesn't know what I look like, only what I sound like on a mic. We only know each other through our gaming community, and nothing more. :/ I have broken all ties with him, and deleted him off my friends' list (because that's the ONLY way he could contact me). Dude needs to grow up and get his head checked.

Did you give them your address? If yes, YDI. If no, FML. I don't like giving out too much personal info to people online. There's a good chance they're not really who they say they are.

That's why you shouldn't meet people online

A few of my closest friends I met online. I've hung out with them. We send each other stuff. It doesn't have to turn into a creeper situation. But common sense and safety precautions should be taken. It's not like, oh we have been talking for a month here is my address or let's get together. The ones I've mentioned I've been friends with for over 10 years.

Ask one of your male friends to put him up and only meet him in public places. You have the right to protect yourself, even from a 'friend' you understand is a stranger - even if he doesn't.

If he doesn't have your address I suggest never contacting him again and also getting a restraining order.

Well... If you don't want to see him, don't say "I am uncomfortable with the idea", tell "back off! I don't want to see you". If you are curious, set up a meeting in a public place (cafe') and bring some of your friends with you. Tell in advance "I don't care where you are staying. I didn't invite you, so take care of yourself. If you wish to see me, I might find a time for coffee." I have met people who seemed strange online and normal in real life and I have had to use very tough words (and block) on one person who just wouldn't listen any reason.

What idiot gives out his homeadress to online contacts? Tell him that you have no interest in meeting him and if he still decides to come over he can sleep under the bridge.

Was this tri booked previously with your permission for him to stay there? If not than you have no obligations to him staying there. If he comes when you said no it is not your problem and you have every right to refuse him to staying there

I have some amazing friends I have met online, we talk almost every night. That being said, I don't want to meet some of them, because they're better at an arms length. There is also the fact that you have to spend 24+ hours with them, which can be hard to do, especially when you're horrible about planning like I am.
