Start somewhere public
Choose a coffee shop, restaurant, museum or busy public venue for your first meeting. Avoid isolated locations or private homes when you don't know the other person well.
YOUR SAFETY MATTERS
Meet thoughtfully. Date safely.
Making real plans is exciting. Taking care of yourself matters more. Keep these practical precautions in mind whenever you meet someone new.
BEFORE YOU MEET
Good chemistry starts with good judgment.
Online dating can lead to wonderful experiences, but meeting someone new comes with real-world considerations. No app can guarantee another person's identity, intentions or behaviour. Take sensible precautions and trust your instincts.
Tell someone your plans
Let a trusted friend know where you're going, who you're meeting and when you expect to return. Consider checking in with them afterward.
Control your own transportation
Arrange a way to arrive and leave independently. Avoid sharing your home address until you feel comfortable and have established trust.
Keep boundaries clear
You never owe someone a date, payment, physical intimacy or further contact. If plans feel uncomfortable, you can change your mind and leave.
Protect personal information
Be cautious about sharing financial details, account credentials or sensitive personal information. Be alert to requests for money, gift cards or cryptocurrency.
Discuss the plan and costs
Confirm where you'll meet, what you'll do, and any expected ticket or venue costs. Don't assume that the person suggesting the date will pay.
