In order to help you stay safe we have also compiled some basic safety tips on our pages.
  2. Are Members Screened?

    A lot can be learned about a person's communication and social skills through a telephone conversation. Remember your security and do not give your personal phone number to a stranger. Instead, try a cell phone number or use the local telephone blocking service to prevent your number from showing in caller ID. Only furnish your phone number when you feel good about the situation.
  7. When Should I Have A Face-To- Face Meeting?
    The advantage of meeting and relating online is that you can gradually collect information, choosing later to develop the relationship in the offline world. You have no obligation to meet anyone, regardless of the level of online intimacy. You always have the right to cancel a meeting should you have a change of heart/mind. It is possible that your desire to keep the online relationship anonymous is the result of some underlying feeling that this just doesn't feel "right". Trust yourself and your instincts!
  8. What Personality Traits And Behaviors Should I Attempt To Avoid?
    We recommend that you should beware of the following: displays of anger; intense frustration; attempts to pressure/control you; passive-aggressive behavior; demeaning or disrespectful comments/actions; inconsistent information regarding age, interests, appearance, marital status, profession, employment; and evasion of direct questions.
  9. Where Should Our First Meeting take Place?
    Remember safety precautions For your first meeting, we advise that you meet in a very public place with lots of human traffic, e.g., a busy restaurant or coffee house. Leave your phone number with a friend or family member and your destination. Also, leave the name and phone number of the person you are to meet. The best time of day to meet is lunch time. Provide your own transportation and never get into the car of your date nor let him/her into your car on the first date. Should you decide to change locations during the first date, take your own car alone. If you happen to like your date, feel free to arrange another meeting. If you are coming from another city arrange your own transportation and hotel. Call your date from the hotel or meet at a previously agreed on location. Should the location seem inappropriate or unsafe, just return to your hotel. And remember...Always make sure a friend or family member knows your plans and have your cell phone with you at all times.
