I am already communicating with him for quite some months and i trusted him as He is my best friend's friend..

My only worry is that the consulate may I ask me how come I will visit someone I never met yet and he will be sponsoring me??

I need some advice.. Thanks a lot
Hi Iyah

You could be putting yourself at risk flying to the UK to meet your “boyfriend” who you have never met before. I would strongly advise you to think this through carefully and if I were in your shoes, I certainly wouldn’t even contemplate it. Besides coming here to meet a stranger, you are a young female and could be quite vulnerable in a country that isn’t known to you. I don’t wish to be an alarmist but anything could happen!

Egypt is only about 5 to 5.5 hours flight from UK and packages are cheap. In my opinion, if your boyfriend is seriously interested in meeting you, he would find a way to do so. If he holds a British passport, he won’t need a visa to visit Egypt and therefore it would be far easier if he put himself out as well as being safer for you in your host/ home country environment.

Please do take care and don’t ignore your “boyfriend’s” apparent lack of enthusiasm.

Good luck
Rosie
