Do you know what she means, Kit?

Nope... she said the guy lived a few hours away and she had never met him... she didn't mention a "friend" knowing him.:confused:

The key for now is to do exactly what you said... keep it fun.

You sound smart enough to understand why concern is shown for the age difference and knowing each other only online.

Take it slowly... how long have you been speaking?. get to know each other more... what do you have in common?. what interests do you share? Keep it casual and friendly, but don't let down your guard completely and listen to your gut. Never ignore any red flags if you ever start to feel uncomfortable... easy to try and pass it off as being silly or worrying about him not liking you, but you have to remain smart.

Just as a side note... I met my husband out of the blue online and was very cautious even as an adult.

What do you mean, you were "so outright"? I've never heard that expression before.

I'm thinking she meant that she came right out with her questions without providing more information to allow for a clearer picture of the situation.

That's my guess anyway... :)

I think she just coined a new word. :D
