Many people today are meeting over social media sites before meeting in person and there can be a wide range of problems that can come from that. Some have formed strong relationships off of sites like Facebook and Myspace which have even developed in to love before laying eyes on each other. Its hard to know who is on the other side of the computer, it can easily be somebody living in their moms basement lying about everything from looks to lifestyle. Even with all the things that can go wrong, a third of marriages between 2005 and 2012 began online that were longer and happier than couples who didn't meet online, according to new research at the university of Chicago (harms, 2013)

This is so true and important for many young teenagers these days. I have been a victim myself in the past, and I feel as though this is a topic that should be important to discuss with friends and families. I definitely feel that everyone should be cautious of who they chat with online and know the danger that lurks around in online websites. Many people look for love and friendship, but anyone can be a vulnerable victim of some sort of danger, physically or emotionally at any time if they their connected with the wrong person.
