4. Safety Tips for Online Dating

While we work hard to provide a secure platform, your safety also depends on how you interact with others. Here are some safety tips for online dating:

Meet in Public Places: For your first in-person meetings, always meet in a public location where you feel comfortable and safe.

Trust Your Instincts: If something feels wrong, it probably is. Don’t hesitate to block or report users who make you uncomfortable.

Video Calls First: Before meeting in person, consider having a video call to confirm the other person’s identity and build comfort.

Share Your Plans: Let a friend or family member know when and where you are meeting someone, and check in with them after the meeting.
