So, if you decide to try online
dating ,
here are few advices
one must remember along the way :
1. Take it slow ...
There are a lot of nice people online but there are
also some bad people who just take advantage of others.
To be sure whether the person one is corresponding with
is for real or just playing games, it is best to look
out for inconsistencies. If at any instance, there is
a feeling of doubt or something wrong, then its best
to stop and move on.
2. Don’t give out personals
...
Since one does not have any idea who this person can
be, it is best not to give out any personal information
such as last name, real email address and contact numbers.
If the person one is corresponding with keeps on pressuring
on this issue, it is best to also stop making contact
with that person.
3. Ask for a photo ...
Some people say it does not matter what is in the outside
but what is inside the person. Physical appearance believe
it or not matters. To authenticate the person one is
talking with online, it is best to ask for a photo.
For security reasons, it will be best not just one picture
but in various settings. If this person is not able
to do this, then one should also stop making contact
with this person.
4. Proceed with caution ...
Earning the trust of people does not happen overnight.
By taking some time to know more about this person,
one will be able to see if this can on any further or
be better off meeting someone else.
5. Meet only when ready ...
Even if a certain level of trust has been established,
it is best to only decide to meet when one is ready.
Just like meeting someone for the first time, one should
take it slow.
6. Choose a public area ...
Before meeting this person, it is best to tell people
like friends and family where one is going. In the interest
of safety and security, it is also best to meet in a
public place. If there are many people that are around,
the safer it will be in case the date does not workout.
