5 Online Dating Safety Tips

Are you concerned about the safety of your online dating? Do you want to make sure that if you take the step to meet someone that you are not setting yourself up in a dangerous situation? Here are 5 online dating safety tips to help you avoid dangerous situations.

Dating tip #1 - Make sure that you have as much information about the person as possible. Get their phone number and address, if you are a female. If you are a male there really is not too much to worry about.

Dating tip #2 - Make sure to get more than one picture and a recent picture is the best. Having a picture will give you a really good idea of who this person is and what they look like. You can tell a lot by looks and women especially have an intuition about people and with a picture most women can tell if a person is a good person or not.

Dating tip #3 - Meet the person in a public place where plenty of other people will be around. You should always meet in a public place until you get to know the person and the fear subsides. Never meet in a private or a semi private place. This is only setting you up for danger.

Dating tip #4 - Never go home with the person you are meeting until you have gotten to know them better. First of all this makes you appear easy and weak. Second, it is just common sense not to allow yourself to be alone with someone until you know you are not in danger.

Dating tip #5 - Park your car in a safe place with plenty of light. Make sure to park your car where there is a lot of light and you will feel safe walking to your car.

The last tip I have for you is taking a friend along with you. If you are worried at all, then invite a friend so to make you feel more comfortable. Now you have the tips you need to start online dating.
