Online dating is save for women.
Online Dating Safety for Women
Online dating for women looking for sex without commitment can be a fun and certainly a rewarding experience for women of all ages. Combine using common sense and exercising good judgement to maintain your safety while you are dating online. Real world safety rules apply also to online safety rules.
Do not give your name, adress and phone number online. You would not give that to strangers you met on the street of in a bar, would you. Play it safe. Get to know this man who could turn out to be Prince Charming before you give out any information that could make it possible for him or others to trace you. Don’t tell a stranger exactly where you work. Say that you are a legal secretary for a mid-sized law firm….not that you work for Brown, Smith and Jones Attorneys-at-law. It is safe to tell him what city you live in but you should wait to be any more specific than that until you have been chatting and exchanging emails for awhile.
Use only the tools provided by the dating service you belong to. Most offer chat and private email on their site. Never under any circumstance give out your isp email address. Use a free email address such as Yahoo or Hotmail if you must give an email address. Your isp address can be traced by anyone who wants to.
When meeting someone in person first meetings should be in a public place and during day light hours. After the meeting a friend can call you on your cell to check if you are ok. You could also take a friend along.
Remember…you ARE in control so do not let anyone pressure you into revealing more personal information than you are comfortable with revealing.
