Have you ever met your online friends in real life?

I just want to know, because it's rare for me to meet online friends in real life. I only met 1 online friend in real life.
And how is it going with your first meeting? Is everything the same or not?
You can tell me the story. Of course if you wanted to.

I've had it 6-7 times.
They were people from different countries that I met through Facebook hobby groups.
I didn't meet them to be friends, we became friends over time as we shared our experiences about our common interest.
When they came to my country as tourists, they offered to meet and I accepted.
Every meeting with all of them was great. Yes, the first minutes are awkward, but we got used to it right away.

Once. she's "dead" for all i know.

*dead=disappeared off the face of the earth. I have my best friend (I call him my husband because long story but we have an agreement) online who I never met and I don't think I want to. Not because I think he'll "die" too, it's just he's pissed me off on purpose for the last...9 years? So if I see him, we gonna box.
