Just about every young girl dreams of meeting the perfect boyfriend. She has a mental image of exactly what Mr. Wonderful will be like. He’s a nice guy, he cares about her and they have so much in common. They love the same kind of music, play the same games and even share the same likes and dislikes in clothes. Her head is filled with fantasies of what the future will hold too. They will date for a while, then marry and have the perfect family too.

For any number of reasons, girls may not find a suitable date at school or in their local community so they turn to the Internet chat rooms and social networks in search of someone to fall in love with.

It can be fun and exciting to form online relationships and it is possible to find an online buddy who is very similar to having a boyfriend. There is nothing quite as electrifying as racing home from school, signing on to your favorite instant messenger or logging into your favorite social networking site and seeing that special buddy waiting to talk to you.

In a growing number of cases, young people believe that they have met someone truly fabulous onlinebut he's not who he portrays himself to be. He is actually an adult and is a sex offender looking for avictim.He tells you he loves you, he cares about you, and he spends every waking moment chatting with you. He’s everything you’ve ever dreamed of and you’ve seen his picture and talked to him on the phone.

You believe that you know all about him. Unfortunately, there are some things that you probably don’t know about him because he is an expert at covering them up. You don’t know that he is really an adult much older than you who has a sexual interest in much younger girls. His whole game plan is to chat with young girls to make them feel comfortable, make them feel wanted and make them feel so special that they won’t think twice about meeting them in person.
