Hi @Bobeloula, I can honestly say to you that this is true. I'm one of the people mentioned here.Yes, I have to agree, as Nienna has said, years of experience here on the forum has shown us that many apparently harmless meetups turn out to be quite the opposite. We simply cannot take the chance that a person is not who they say they are. It really is for the safety of our forum members that we advise such caution.
Cause few years ago I shared the same 'enthusiasm' like you. But !
I was not ready. Didn't know me back then. Didn't have enough knowledge, so I could value other peoples motives, coping mechanisms, core beliefs and habits - and of course I wasn't aware of mine as well.
I overestimated myself and was totaly blind from wishfull thinking although it was all done in good intention.
Many people left hurt, including me.
We all had a very good lesson but we could have had happy ending and avoid many problems
if we all just have been networking more and not rushing things. So.... I think you'll get the point.
Greetings
