Would you ever invite DIS "friends" to your home...

[Papa Deuce]

for a first meeting?

I'm having an event at my home, and there are a few people I might want to invite, but it seems kinda strange to invite people who I haven't actually met, but do enjoy here on the DIS.

Would you invite anybody that way?

 

[Pooh67_68]

I remember when Town Crier? (John) used to post about a big cookout he and is wife used to hold in the summer and he had an open invitation to all DISers.

As for me yes there are a few that I would invite to my house.

 

[Cantw8]

I'm flattered...just ask me I don't live that far away

 

[Judy from Boise]

I would for a group event, maybe not a one on one. BTW.....you mean me correct

 

[ajk912]

No, I would not. But I am not a guy, I am 5'4, 140ish lb gal, and I couldn't hurt a fly...so just because someone has a disboards account doesn't mean that they are good people.

No offense. I would love to meet y'all in a bar/hotel/Applebees or whatever though!!!!

I think it's a nice gesture. I really don;'t have friends on here I talk to on a regular basis that I would feel comfortable enough to invite to my house. A public place would be okay

I've been on the DIS for over 10 years (started using a new DIS name when we bought DVC), and there a few people...well, maybe 15 or so?...whose friendships I treasure and that I'd have NO qualms whatsoever about inviting to my house. Casual chit-chat acquaintances? Not so much. And some others...no way.

There are some very close DIS friends I've never met, and it always kind of surprises me when I'm reminded that I haven't. Dear friends.

Although I think it's a great idea, I'm busy that weekend. Drats.

 

[Rebelmom67]

Hell to the no!

 

[chell]

There are some I would.

 

[raysnkaysmom]

I haven't really formed friendships on here like I had in the past on a chatroom I frequented, but, yeah, I think there are some that I could trust (people with longevity, not newbies), and if it was a group of people, sure
Sounds fun!!

 

[maelstrom]

Not for a first meeting, no.

 

[TheBigBadWolf]

I haven't met any friends on the Dis that I'm close enough to invite to my home. I have met friends on another board I used to frequent that I felt completely comfortable inviting to my home. I've met quite a few people in person who I got to know from the web and then through phone calls. I say go for it.

There's a couple of Disers I would invite to my house for a first meeting, but I've known them online here for like three years.

 

[disneyfav4ever]

IDK. I know there is one poster who already has my address, but I already have met her IRL. She did have my address before I met her IRL though, so that's kind of a moo point.

 

[Goofyzgurl]

I don't know anyone over the internet well enough to invite into my house.

Well I finally met Disneymomx7 last week in disney and I would have no problem inviting her over to my house. She was just as sweet in real life as she is on here. (and her family was adorable!)

 

[Topper]

so that's kind of a moo point.

 

[Feralpeg]

There are some I would have no problem inviting to my home. An open invitation would not be a good idea.
