Ok so i dont know what this must be like for u. but in my honest opinnion i dont think u should meet him. For one like HanBan says how would u get to ireland? no2 its so far for u to travel on ur own. no3 u will be in a strange place miles from home and no4 u cant always trust people u meet online.I am really worried for ur safety, im sorry if this sounds like i am getting at u i dont mean to, but i'm a parent myself and i know i would totally freak if my baby did something like what ur talking about doin.I know u will make the right choiceGud Luck and Be very careful

Never ever sneak out to see some guy, especially some guy you dont even actually know, behind your parents back. That is so stupid and dangerous I can hardly control myself! And to think you would travel to another country? If you really think this guy is that wonderful and he is legit and not a child molester than you need to come clean with your parents and meet him right in front of them. If he were a local boy from school that is how it would work. If it is an internet boy it is even more important that it be so.

Meeting people over the internet is really unsafe. Habbo is a pretty awesome site though, but surely its too soon, and too far away. How would you even get there for a start?Without your parents knowing. What if something were to happen to you? And your parents would be none the wiser. Its extremely risky and utterly stupid. But, if you are really serious about it, break it to your parents, maybe they might understand and do something about it. :)Good luck chick. xxxx

There are going to be many boys in your life that you will be close with. I know that now your deperate to meet this boy from ireland but even if you did and started seeing each other, long distance relationships don't usually work out.
Theres lots of things you have to be careful with on internet chatrooms. I know about Habbo Hotel and heard its pretty safe but you should never can trust anyone 100% on here.
I'd give it a long time before you should meet up with him. Its not safe for you to meet up with someone from the internet never mind travelling to Ireland on your own to go and see him, anything could happen to you.
I'm sure you've got mates from school that you could hang around with. Go out with them and find a boyfriend that way, its much safer and it costs less!
You don't have to have a boyfriend to be happy, trust me I've learnt that the hard way. You can have a laugh with your mates.
But If you're really serious about this lad then your gonna have to talk to your parents about it, beacuse if you go wondering off to Ireland they're gonna be worried sick.
Best of luck x

I would be careful of this. As the internet can be an untrustworthy place as you never know who is on the other side of the moniter.Yes you could ask him to get a webcam,to find out if he is who he says he is.If he is who he says talk via this but this is as far as you should go at the moment. Your sill only 12 and meeting him without a parent can get you in alot of danger, which i wont get into, but is VERY stupid to do.I do advise you be aware of what you are doing and read up on the dangers of the internet.I do suggest you tell your parents before you use the webcam as going behind them can get you in trouble and at your age supervision may be needed.Be Safe
