It’s good to build loving and trusting friendships that can lead to lasting, but you should always know the limits and safety tips. You don’t know who is trying to deceive you so always be alert while dating.

Give it a slow start
Always look for someone who seems too good to be true. Trust your instincts. If anything makes you uncomfortable, walk away for your own safety and protection.

Talk on phone
To know a person’s communication and social skills you must chat with him on phone. Do not reveal your personal phone number to a stranger. Try a cell phone number instead or use local telephone blocking techniques to prevent your phone number from appearing in Caller ID.

Meet when you want
Always meet that person when you want and even if you decide to arrange a meeting, you always have the right to change your mind. Trust yourself. Go with your instincts.

Meeting in a safe place
Always meet in a safe place like a familiar restaurant or coffee shop, at a time when a lot of other people will be present, is often a fine choice.

Be careful
Take all the time you need to test for a trustworthy person and pay careful attention along the way. If you suspect someone is lying, he or she probably is, so act accordingly.

Ask for a photo
A photo will help you to have an idea of the person’s appearance, which may prove helpful in achieving a gut feeling.

In the end never do anything you feel unsure about. If you are in any way afraid of your date, use your best judgment to diffuse the situation and get out of there. Never worry or feel embarrassed about your behavior; your safety is much more important than one person’s opinion of you.
